Yoel Marcus's man of the year.(extracts) The "butterfly affect" has been proved true.A new year has begun in which lone individuals are capable of changing,or at least disrupting,the new world order.At any given moment there is someone in the world plotting to screw the system.The more technologically advanced the country, the more vulnerable it is in the face of obsessed loners,Ideological fanatics and maniacs. Capturing or killing Osama bin laden wont halt the phenomena or lessen the risk.Maybe just the opposite.At a time when every psychopath is king,when civilization is the target and at a loss for what to do,the person of the year is the anonymous loner masterminding the next terrorist spectacular.(published in Ha'aretz and the age.) -----BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK----- GMC d-(--) s:+ a?
