Book Synopsis Manufacturing Terrorism by : T. J. Coles
Download or read book Manufacturing Terrorism written by T. J. Coles and published by CLAIRVIEW BOOKS. This book was released on 2018-12-07 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What if your own government deliberately creates terrorists? What if their short-term aims – deposing regimes that no longer serve Western interests, justifying invasions of sovereign nations, and expanding the security state at home – have long-term consequences for us all? What if most of the horrific bombings, stabbings and vehicle attacks of recent years are connected – indirectly and sometimes directly – to British, French and American intelligence? These and other hard-hitting questions are posed by T. J. Coles in this disturbing survey of secret political manoeuvrings and covert manipulation. Welcome to the world of manufactured terrorism… Backed by a wealth of documentation, including court records, parliamentary inquiries and little-known but official publications, the author exposes the role of the deep state in brutal acts of terror. Exploring Operation Gladio, Northern Irish terror and, predominantly, Islamic jihad, he argues that intelligence agencies, the military and governments employ six key methods to manufacture terrorism: 1/ Blowback: attacking other countries and provoking violent responses. 2/ Proxies: creating terrorists (including al-Qaeda) and using them against enemies. 3/ Provocateurs: provoking individuals from minorities into committing terrorist acts. 4/ Green-lighting: allowing terrorists to commit attacks in order to justify specific policies. 5/ False-flags: committing terrorism and blaming it on designated enemies. 6/ Simulations: holding drills and exercises as covers for apparent terrorist acts. Contrary to claims that terrorism is caused by people who simply ‘hate our way of life’ – and in contrast to the simplistic narrative of conspiracy websites and talk-shows – Coles argues that each case of terrorism needs to be evaluated separately. Manufacturing Terrorism presents a complex picture that distinguishes between cases of blowback, proxies, false-flags, simulations, etc. It offers an indispensable briefing to help readers make sense of our chaotic and dangerous world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Revised and reissued in light of recent events, this classic and now increasingly important book is an exception in the literature on terrorism. Based on complex observations of actual movement participants, Wieviorka's book addresses a broad spectrum of terrorist activity—from Italian left-wing terrorists to Basque nationalist groups to the international terrorism of Palestine and the Middle East.

For this new edition, Wieviorka adds new material that remaps the state of terrorism after the events of 2001.
Book Synopsis Manufacturing Terrorism in Africa by : Mohamed Natheem Hendricks
Download or read book Manufacturing Terrorism in Africa written by Mohamed Natheem Hendricks and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-07-03 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book uses Securitisation Theory to explore how Muslims have been constructed as a security issue in Africa after the 9/11 attacks in the United States. These attacks became the rationale for the US’s Global War on Terror (GWOT). The centrality of Africa as an arena to execute the GWOT is the focus of this book. This book explores, particularly, how western-centred security discourses around Muslims has permeated South African security discourse in the post-apartheid period. It claims that the popular press and the local think-tank community were critical knowledge-sites that imported rather than interrogated debates which have underpinned policy-initiatives such as the GWOT. Such theorisation seems contrary to the original architects of securitisation theory who maintain that issues become security concerns when institutional voices declare these as such. However, this book confirms that non-institutional voices have securitised the African Muslims by equating them with terrorism. This book illustrates that such securitisation reproduces partisan knowledge that promote Western interests.
Book Synopsis Manufacturing Hate Three Perspectives on Terrorist Motivations and Strategies by : Justin H. Magouirk
Download or read book Manufacturing Hate Three Perspectives on Terrorist Motivations and Strategies written by Justin H. Magouirk and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study of terrorism is plagued by three problems - lack of strong theory, a disconnect between academic and public policy work, and the absence of empirical validation. Although the three papers in my dissertation will address different subjects within the study of terrorism, the commonality is a concerted attempt to address the above shortcomings. In the first paper, "The Nefarious Helping Hand", I demonstrate theoretically and empirically via case studies that many terrorist groups are significantly more complex than one-dimensional media and (sometime) academic portrayals, and that these groups depend heavily on well-developed social services and anti-corruption campaigns to gain support from the population. In the second paper, "Terrorism as Revenge for Perceived Unfairness", I argue that terrorism is driven by many of the same motivations as other forms of violence. I argue that perceptions of fairness and species-common inclinations for revenge to punish these perceived violations of fairness are often key motivations for individuals to pursue terrorism. In my third paper, I address a key debate within the terrorism literature---the relative importance of madrassahs for training terrorists. I argue that the two contending positions---madrassahs are not important for recruitment of terrorists and madrassahs are breeding grounds for terror are both overstated. I find that radical madrassah exposure is strongly associated with terrorist activity and is associated with more important roles on terrorist operations in Southeast Asia.
Book Synopsis Manufacturing Phobias by : Hisham Ramadan
Download or read book Manufacturing Phobias written by Hisham Ramadan and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2016-05-12 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fear is a powerful emotion and a formidable spur to action, a source of worry and – when it is manipulated – a source of injustice. Manufacturing Phobias demonstrates how economic and political elites mobilize fears of terrorism, crime, migration, invasion, and infection to twist political and social policy and advance their own agendas. The contributors to the collection, experts in criminology, law, sociology, and politics, explain how and why social phobias are created by pundits, politicians, and the media, and how they target the most vulnerable in our society. Emphasizing how social phobias reflect the interests of those with political, economic, and cultural power, this work challenges the idea that society’s anxieties are merely expressions of individual psychology. Manufacturing Phobias will be a clarion call for anyone concerned about the disturbing consequences of our culture of fear.
Book Synopsis Manufacturing Militarism by : Christopher J. Coyne
Download or read book Manufacturing Militarism written by Christopher J. Coyne and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 2021-08-03 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S. government's prime enemy in the War on Terror is not a shadowy mastermind dispatching suicide bombers. It is the informed American citizen. With Manufacturing Militarism, Christopher J. Coyne and Abigail R. Hall detail how military propaganda has targeted Americans since 9/11. From the darkened cinema to the football field to the airport screening line, the U.S. government has purposefully inflated the actual threat of terrorism and the necessity of a proactive military response. This biased, incomplete, and misleading information contributes to a broader culture of fear and militarism that, far from keeping Americans safe, ultimately threatens the foundations of a free society. Applying a political economic approach to the incentives created by a democratic system with a massive national security state, Coyne and Hall delve into case studies from the War on Terror to show how propaganda operates in a democracy. As they vigilantly watch their carry-ons scanned at the airport despite nonexistent threats, or absorb glowing representations of the military from films, Americans are subject to propaganda that, Coyne and Hall argue, erodes government by citizen consent.
Book Synopsis Terrorism and the Electric Power Delivery System by : National Research Council
Download or read book Terrorism and the Electric Power Delivery System written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2012-11-25 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The electric power delivery system that carries electricity from large central generators to customers could be severely damaged by a small number of well-informed attackers. The system is inherently vulnerable because transmission lines may span hundreds of miles, and many key facilities are unguarded. This vulnerability is exacerbated by the fact that the power grid, most of which was originally designed to meet the needs of individual vertically integrated utilities, is being used to move power between regions to support the needs of competitive markets for power generation. Primarily because of ambiguities introduced as a result of recent restricting the of the industry and cost pressures from consumers and regulators, investment to strengthen and upgrade the grid has lagged, with the result that many parts of the bulk high-voltage system are heavily stressed. Electric systems are not designed to withstand or quickly recover from damage inflicted simultaneously on multiple components. Such an attack could be carried out by knowledgeable attackers with little risk of detection or interdiction. Further well-planned and coordinated attacks by terrorists could leave the electric power system in a large region of the country at least partially disabled for a very long time. Although there are many examples of terrorist and military attacks on power systems elsewhere in the world, at the time of this study international terrorists have shown limited interest in attacking the U.S. power grid. However, that should not be a basis for complacency. Because all parts of the economy, as well as human health and welfare, depend on electricity, the results could be devastating. Terrorism and the Electric Power Delivery System focuses on measures that could make the power delivery system less vulnerable to attacks, restore power faster after an attack, and make critical services less vulnerable while the delivery of conventional electric power has been disrupted.

Book Synopsis The Terror Factory: Tenth Anniversary Edition by : Trevor Aaronson
Download or read book The Terror Factory: Tenth Anniversary Edition written by Trevor Aaronson and published by Ig Publishing. This book was released on 2022-11 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A groundbreaking work of investigative journalism, The Terror Factory was the first book to expose how the FBI, under the guise of engaging in counterterrorism, built a network of more than 15,000 informants after 9/11 whose primary purpose was to infiltrate Muslim communities to create and facilitate phony terrorist plots so that the Bureau could then claim it was winning the war on terror. This tenth anniversary edition of The Terror Factory will focus on the activities of the FBI over the past decade, including how the Justice Department has prosecuted hundreds of defendants on international terrorism charges that emerged from FBI stings. In many of these stings, the informants or undercover agents provided all the money and weapons for the terrorist plots, and sometimes even the ideas -- raising significant questions about whether any of these people would have committed the crimes were it not for the FBI's encouragement. The book will also examine how the FBI is assigning informants to infiltrate right-wing groups, and how the calls for new right-wing anti-terrorism laws would give the Bureau even more power.
Book Synopsis Protecting Individual Privacy in the Struggle Against Terrorists by : National Research Council
Download or read book Protecting Individual Privacy in the Struggle Against Terrorists written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2008-10-26 with total page 377 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All U.S. agencies with counterterrorism programs that collect or "mine" personal data-such as phone records or Web sites visited-should be required to evaluate the programs' effectiveness, lawfulness, and impacts on privacy. A framework is offered that agencies can use to evaluate such information-based programs, both classified and unclassified. The book urges Congress to re-examine existing privacy law to assess how privacy can be protected in current and future programs and recommends that any individuals harmed by violations of privacy be given a meaningful form of redress. Two specific technologies are examined: data mining and behavioral surveillance. Regarding data mining, the book concludes that although these methods have been useful in the private sector for spotting consumer fraud, they are less helpful for counterterrorism because so little is known about what patterns indicate terrorist activity. Regarding behavioral surveillance in a counterterrorist context, the book concludes that although research and development on certain aspects of this topic are warranted, there is no scientific consensus on whether these techniques are ready for operational use at all in counterterrorism.
