Terrorism, as a sister of politics, has a transnational character, therefore regional collaboration among actors is usually very important.

Terrorism is a strategy which global actors has chosen permanently. The sinking of the Mary Maersk has the goal to produce a maximum of economic damage.

Most ‘nightmare scenarios’ envisage a use of ships as floating bombs or as delivery vehicles for explosive devices, perhaps even nuclear ones; or attacks against passenger ships, such as a ferry or cruise ship, that are simply intended to cause a maximum of fatalities; or the sinking of ships in order to produce a maximum of economic damage, for instance, by blocking congested and narrow waterways.

the attack against the French very large crude carrier (VLCC) MS Limburg in the Gulf of Aden in October 2002, which was seemingly staged by an Al Qaeda affiliate and certainly qualified as terrorism, had rather insignificant consequences. However, the crude carrier attack was just a test scenario.
