"One of the main problems of our Civilization is that the Evil always represents itself as the Good, and it takes too long to convince Men that the Good is not wicked." - Boris Tiraspolsky "Quotations and Maxims"

Status quo is a Latin term meaning the present, current, existing state of affairs. To maintain the status quo is to keep the things the way they presently are.

No return to a status quo. Part I
A life-threatening condition when residents all, or in substantial numbers cannot get back to their homes and return to their normal every day life in observing future after occurred either natural, or manmade disasters is called "no return to a statue quo” catastrophic scenario.
A clear example of the manmade type of “no return to a statue quo” catastrophic scenario is the tragedy of Chernobyl nuclear power plant in the former USSR in 1986. A recent example of the natural type of “no return to a statue quo” catastrophic scenario is the combined impact of hurricanes “Katrina” and “Rita” in New Orleans, Louisiana in 2005.
Manmade “no return to a status quo” catastrophic scenarios are an ill-fated reality of total terrorist warfare waged against the Nation by Islamic terrorists. The condition come with a clear intent to use non-conventional weapons in terrorists acts against civilian populations.
Are there some people out there who still entertain their hopes of forever deterring terrorist attacks on the American soil? Does anyone still believe that terrorists are not going to use Weapons of Mass Destruction - nuclear, chemical, biological - against the U.S. population when an opportunity comes? Then, one must be clear about the evil nature of Terrorism.
A historical record of terrorist acts all over the world for the last more then hundred fifty years eloquently shows that terrorists are extremely merciless and exceptionally tenacious enemies. They always accomplish their brutal objectives, regardless of any precaution measures taken by their victims.
Therefore, it is reasonable and significant to maintain a difficult, but realistic position that regardless of all current used sophisticated security devices, techniques and procedures, the United States will be attacked by terrorists again. And next attacks by terrorists against the U.S. population with both conventional and non-conventional weapons are just a matter of “when and where“.
“No return to a status quo” catastrophic scenarios show their troubling face with a perilous intent to use Weapons of Mass Destruction by terrorists against civilian populations. This is a new reality of modern total terrorist warfare the United States never faced before.
“No return to a status quo” catastrophic scenarios alter a paradigm of modern warfare from a military conquest to defense of civilians. That requires absolutely new Instruments and Forces in addition to those currently utilized to resist enemy in battle on the American soil. Let me put it in plain words why
