<< the people actually performing the terrorist acts are fanatics willing to die, but the people in charge are more political in nature and are not willing to die>>

I agree in concept, but the "new" terrorist is not so easily identified with any leader, and many are so fanatical that they may be willing to go after a world leader in spite of what the visible leaders may want. After all the indoctrination and rhetoric, wouldn't it look great to be able to claim to be the one that took out the leader of the Great White Satan?

I don't think history is much help anymore (in this are), because the players are becoming more independent.
