My undergraduate degree was in Philosophy, Politics, and Economics. Since it was an interdisciplinary degree, the actual content was dependent on my interests and what was available at the university at the time. I studied a lot of American Imperialism Post-9/11, Middle Eastern Politics, and the general foundations of terrorism as a political tool. Add in some Liberation Theology, Economics of the Military Industrial Complex, and a deep dive into the ethics of Just and Unjust Wars, and the end result is that I know a bit about this area. It’s all academic and I would be useless for anything other than soft-target terrorism on a very small scale.
