He communicated his displeasure through the Okla homa City bombing. Lucchese did much of her re search though on the Patrimo ny Bombings in Italy during 1993. The Patrimony Bombings were a series of five car bombs used between May 14 and July 28 where churches and art gal leries were the targets in the cities of Rome, Florence and Milan. A total of nine people were killed as a result of the at tacks in Florence and Milan. While no one claimed re sponsibility for these bombings, Lucchese and Italian analysts agree that it was probably the work of the mafia. At that time, the Italian gov ernment was taking actions which lessened the power of the mafia in Italy. In retaliation, Luc chese said “mafia figures may have been protesting through at tacking art museums and church es that held great cultural signif icance for the Italian people.” Understanding the cultural significance of a site that has been attacked tells much of why that target was selected. It also explains the feelings of loss the citizens might have. Once these factors have been understood and implemented in the Terror Grid, it might lead to a prediction as to where the next terrorist strike could happen and what, if anything, could be done to prevent it. Lucchese finished the Terror Grid only last December, hut hopes that the grid will he ac cepted by government and oth er agencies as a means to prevent further tragedies resulting from acts of terrorism.
