A Woman`s Place: Us Counterterrorism Since 9/11, Cook Joana
Автор: Rosenbach Eric, Peritz Aki Название: Find, Fix, Finish: Inside America`s Counterterrorism Campaign, from 9/11 to the Death of Osama Bin Laden ISBN: 1610391284 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781610391283 Издательство: Неизвестно Цена: 27890.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть Описание: On 9/11 the U.S. had effectively no counterterrorism doctrine. Fast forward ten years: Osama bin Laden is dead; al Qaeda is organizationally ruined and pinned in the tribal areas of Pakistan and Afghanistan; there has been no major attack on American soil; and while there has been at least one instance of a massive planned attack, it was crushed by the greatest international collaboration of intelligence services seen since the end of the Cold War.
It's been a remarkable transformation. Aki Peritz and Eric Rosenbach have experienced first-hand the monumental strategy changes in our country's counterterrorism strategy within the intelligence, defense, and political communities. In this book, they show how America learned to be very good at taking on the terrorists, often one at a time, in ever more lethally incisive operations.
They offer new details behind some headlines from the last decade. They are frank about the mistakes that have been made. And they explain how a concept coined by General Grant during the Civil War has been reinvented in the age of satellite technology to manage a globally distributed foe, allowing the U.S.
to find, fix, and finish its enemies.

Описание: The use of drone warfare has become a controversial foreign policy weapon to keep the United States safe from further terrorist attacks. This book is an assessment of American targeted killing practices through drone warfare in the Middle East and Africa, including Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Pakistan, Somalia, Syria, and Yemen.
Traditionally, resources on terrorism and counterterrorism tend to focus on the social, behavioral, and legal aspects of the subject, with minimal emphasis on the scientific and technological aspects. Taking into account these practical considerations, the second edition of Science and Technology of Terrorism and Counterterrorism discusses the nature of terrorism and the materials used by terrorists. It describes how intelligence professionals and law enforcement personnel can detect and destroy these materials, and how they can deal with terrorist groups.
This volume begins by introducing the shift in analysis of terrorist attacks after September 11, 2001 and summarizes selected case studies. It discusses the origin and nature of terrorism and the factors involved in diplomacy. Covering a broad range of topics, the book examines:
Aerosol dispersion of toxic materials
Bioterrorism and the manufacture, detection, and delivery of biological agents
Agricultural terrorism
Nuclear terrorism and nuclear weapons systems, threats, and safeguards
Chemical terrorism, including manufacture, detection, delivery, and decontamination
Cyber-terrorism
Personal protective equipment
The role of government at federal, state, and local levels
The role of international agencies and their resources, capabilities, and responsibilities
The National Infrastructure Protection Plan
As terrorist activities increase globally, it is critical that those charged with protecting the public understand the myriad of ways in which terrorists operate. While we cannot predict where, when, and how terrorists will strike, our vigilance in staying abreast of the terrorist threat is the only way to have a fighting chance against those who seek to destroy our world.

Описание: Using red teams in today's counterterrorism training Keeping ahead of terrorists requires innovative, up-to-date training. This follow-up to Stephen Sloan's pioneering 1981 book, Simulating Terrorism, takes stock of twenty-first-century terrorism-then equips readers to effectively counter it. Quickly canvassing the evolution of terrorism-and of counterterrorism efforts-over the past thirty years, co-authors Sloan and Robert J. Bunker draw on examples from the early 2000s, following the World Trade Center and Pentagon attacks, to emphasize the need to prevent or respond quickly to "active aggressors"-terrorists who announce their presence and seek credibility through killing. Training for such situations requires realistic simulations-whose effectiveness, the authors show, depends on incorporating red teams; that is, the groups that play the part of active aggressors. In Red Teams and Counterterrorism Training, Sloan and Bunker, developers of simulation-driven counterterrorist training, take readers through the prerequisites for and basic principles of conducting a successful simulation and preparing responders to face threats-whether from teenage shooters or from sophisticated terrorist organizations. The authors clearly explain how to create an effective red team whose members can operate from within the terrorists' mindset. An innovative chapter by theater professional Roberta Sloan demonstrates how to use dramatic techniques to teach red teams believable role-playing. Rounding out this book, a case study of the 2009 shooting at Fort Hood illustrates the cost of failures in intelligence and underscores the still-current need for serious attention to potential threats. First responders-whether civilian or military-will find Red Teams and Counterterrorism Training indispensible as they address and deter terrorism now and in the futur Stephen Sloan A pioneer in terrorism research and education, Stephen Sloan is the author of fourteen books, including Simulating Terrorism and Terrorism: The Present Threat in Context.
