Abstract
This essay will explain some of the changing patterns of terrorism/terrorist group slightly, and will focus more on the new pattern of organizational structure and command of terrorist group. The author shows that terrorism may be in the color of non-state terrorist movement, ideological groups, religion-political groups or religion-based ideology. Furthermore, some of these groups have evolved and morphed into the new patterns of terrorist movement. They have new tactics, strategies, loose organization, decentralized command and control adjusting to the global war against terrorism. Their terror action tends to be less anticipated and unpredictable. The finding in this article also shows that the movement of counter-terrorism by bombing terrorists’ centers such as Afghanistan and Iraq; and arresting or killing the terrorist leaders such as Al-Qaeda or JI do not stop terrorism movement because they will metamorphose into other movement forms.
