methods are deplorable and
their meaning is often sinister,
but terrorism is, at heart, an act
of communication.”

1992. 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.
