麥卡倫在911事件25週年紀念之際,透過投書《獨立報》發表對當前安全局勢的看法。他強調現代威脅已不僅限於傳統恐怖組織,還包括國家支持的破壞行動。
美國11日紀念「911恐怖攻擊」25週年之際,英國對內情報機關「軍情五處」(MI5)警告,如今情報機關已不能只執著於過去的威脅,而是必須有所準備,下一場類似「911攻擊」足以撼動國家安全的戰略震撼,可能已在情報機關還沒注意到的地方滋生,而且會不同於911攻擊的面貌出現。
路透11日報導,軍情五處處長麥卡倫(Ken McCallum)投書英國《獨立報》紀念「911攻擊」25週年,這篇11日刊登的文章指出,安全機關須對當前和未來的挑戰做好調適,「就定義來說,我們知道下一場戰略震撼將不會類似上一次那場,或許這是最重要的一課」。
他說,須從911攻擊汲取教訓,但是也須警覺,勿陷入執著於以過去的方式、戰術「對抗昨天的敵人、昨天的目標」,「令人不安的事實是,下一場戰略震撼或許已經在我們還沒注意到的某處成形」。
麥卡倫指出,策劃並發動911攻擊的「開打」(Al-Qaida)」組織雖已式微,但仍是個威脅,該組織及其他激進份子企圖發動大規模傷亡攻擊的意圖也沒有消失。他並舉例,英國近期就破獲一起伊斯蘭極端份子陰謀,企圖在英格蘭北部曼徹斯特攻擊猶太社群,槍殺數百人。
他說,MI5今日也面對愈加升高的國家支持的侵略行動,從利用犯罪代理人從事破壞行動,到對發電廠發動網路攻擊等;與2001年不同的是,現在許多重要系統與服務掌握在民間企業,因此有賴於政府、企業及學術界共同努力,找出並補上安全漏洞,也要建立危機發生時迅速反應的能力。
麥卡倫警告,「我們不能坐等下一次震撼發生,才去找出漏洞在哪、由誰負責、誰有權採取行動」,須提前做好準備、建立韌性,並有勇氣做出調整,因應下一場戰略震撼。
