The final of XX century brought to the contemporary history the tragic phenomenon of global “jihadism”. It had its most spectacular public baptism in New York in 2001 september 11, marking the start point of a global conflict faced by our western civilization, in the framework of an irregular war rigorously just because of defending our liberty and culture. This article tries to define the “real and potential enemy”, to scrutinize the uncertain future taking into account the last events in order to decide the convenient “fronts of legitimate defense”, to finalize thinking about the level of “courage of victory” of the western societies, that is to say their rear guards, taking into account that this basic principle of the military doctrines is essential in every battles along de history.
