Lessons Learned: What the United States Can Learn From Sri Lanka’s Deadly Terrorist Attacks
By

April 23, 2019

There are several immediate lessons learned from the terrorist attacks that killed hundreds and wounded even more in Sri Lanka. Sri Lanka – faced with its own internal political and economic problems – was a soft target for Islamic State terrorists. Meaning, there wasn’t much to stop the terrorists from targeting churches and hotels even when the government had information that an attack was imminent.

The Sri Lankan government plagued with its own internal disputes, communication failures and inadequate resources was victim to those targeting its own people.


The United States should heed the warning signs.
