With the latest attack in France, as of me writing this we still don't know the truth behind it yet.
A rogue individual is as dangerous in spread of terrorism as an Army, more so in fact. Your next door neighbor could jump on board. In the news they discuss the importance of intelligence to thwart an attack. While a government might be able to intercept information to stop a coordinated effort, how do you stop an individual from driving a truck and killing 84 and injuring scores of others? How do you fund such an effort?
Terrorism is a greater problem than gun control. Planes killed people in New York, a truck in France. Terrorisms spread is propaganda through social media. Surely terrorist will prey on the weak and use this latest attack as a way to get more people on board, even if a terrorist group never has to meet this person. The person in France is dead, and ISIS can claim responsibility and we'll never know, yet the person next door may be a hateful person who uses this as an excuse to say "why not me?"
Hitler was as bad as they come, be he could be stopped with an Army and weapons. In typical war one group moves in waves and can be met and attacked and stopped. Terrorism is a worldwide spot threat that can crop up anywhere, with 1 person carrying out an attack.
Nothing is unstoppable, but in this present day I see nothing from any country with the ability to truly attack terrorism at its source, because no one can really define the source. Terrorism spreads like a disease.

When every man woman and child is armed, those with evil intent, will be culled from the earth rather quick & efficiently.
When the British Army terrorized the Colonies, there was one thing that the Colonies had, that ended the terrorism.
