Internet vulnerabilities

There is a lot of news lately about terrorist groups doing recon on
potential targets. The stories got me thinking.
What are the real threats to the global Internet?
I am looking for anything that might be a potential attack point. I don't
want to start a flame war, but any interesting or even way out there idea
is welcome.
Is it feasible that a coordinated attack could shutdown the entire net? I
am not talking DDoS. What if someone actually had the skills to disrupt
BGP on a widescale?
