I think you are taking a little bit different track then what the
original poster was suggesting. It is true that the US is trying to
leverage technology to minimize death during war, however, the
availability of cheap technology also allows such things as remotely
detonated bombs, and improved communications between insurgents or
terrorists to coordinate their attacks. A distributed organization
like Al Queda could not have existed 10 years ago because the
communication necessary to maintain control was not cheaply available.

On the contrary cell like organisations for terrorist groups
are as old as the hills. The 12th Persian sec of assassins
used it as did groups in revolutionary France and the
anarchists and Fenians of the 19th century.
