“…In the Greek civil war (1947-49), such a construct was observed where insurgents enjoyed little social support despite colocation. 40 This kind of construct affords prospects of human intelligence that can be the basis for the kinetic application of air power. However, even intelligence-based kinetic applications cannot be without prohibitive political costs due to the high possibility of collateral damage.…”

The early theorists had conceived airpower to break the adversary's will and achieve decisive impact; however, technological deficiencies and weak strategies prevented airpower from doing so. Later, especially in the second half of the 20th century, advancements in technology and the advent of new concepts developed airpower as a military tool of the first choice to achieve strategic advantages. Traditionally, states remained the referent objects and a prime focus for national security, but post-cold war developments witnessed the emergence of a non-traditional security paradigm, increasingly making individuals referent objects of security. This security dimension primarily affected individuals and ideational aspects and led to the developing of a new identity-based construct with increasing political, economic, military, environmental, and societal influences. This paper highlights that despite the remarkable advancements in airpower technology and its ever-increasing role as a critical military instrument, its effectiveness in dealing with security threats and achieving a decisive victory in situations complexed by non-traditional threats remains ambiguous. Considering terrorism as a social construction allows investigation into unthinkable policies to counter it. Nevertheless, the main objective of the policy perhaps can be the deconstruction of the undesirable construct whereby airpower, enabled with modern technology, can act as a leading military component.

“…'In the battle between two regular armies, the "guerrillas" no longer had the advantage.' 65 It would not be unfair to say that by late 1947 the GDA was no longer a 'pure' guerrilla force, but effectively a conventional one. Assessing whether an insurgent force has acquired sufficient weaponry, cadre, and training to take on national forces is critical but difficult.…”
