Book Synopsis Guns, Freedom, and Terrorism by : Wayne R. LaPierre
Download or read book Guns, Freedom, and Terrorism written by Wayne R. LaPierre and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On September 11, 2001, America was defiled by terror -- our people mass murdered by fanatics willing to forfeit their own lives to kill as many innocent civilians as they could. The horrific evil inflicted on America that day was also a frontal assault on the very values that have made this nation a power-house: liberty, democracy, justice, and decency. To the nation's gun ban lobby, however, the mindless tragedy was seen as an opportunity to seize on terrorism as an excuse to launch a new wave of harsh gun laws against peaceable citizens. But their antidefense dogma fell on deaf ears. Citizens quickly decided to assume responsibility for their own protection. Homeland security meant exercising Second Amendment rights; it meant common-sense gun ownership. It meant Americans fighting back -- from airline pilots to average citizens. Guns, Freedom, and Terrorism exposes the myths of those who demand we give up the liberties our forefathers fought valiantly to protect. It's about the true meaning of an armed citizenry and the nation's bedrock belief in preserving freedom. This fact-filled book provides forceful and convincing arguments on all the current issues facing firearms ownership in America, including: arming airline pilots, "animal rights" extremists, extortion of firearms manufacturers, gun show prohibition, international disarmament, self-defense and right-to-carry laws, media bias, and the historical and legal foundations affirming an individual's right to keep and bear arms.

Book excerpt: "As our nation conducts its war on terrorism -- at home and abroad -- one salient and unassailable fact is conspicuously absent from the national dialogue: terrorists and guns go together. The gun is part of the essential tool kit of domestic and foreign terrorists alike. Guns are used to commit terrorist acts, and guns are used by terrorists to resist law enforcement efforts at apprehension and arrest. The oft-seen file footage of Osama Bin Laden, aiming his AK-47 at an unknown target, is now a familiar reminder of the incontrovertible connection between terrorism and guns. For terrorists around the world, the United States is the Great Gun Bazaar. This special report by the Brady Center to Prevent Gun Violence makes the case for stronger gun laws, and for enforcement of existing laws, as an essential part of a comprehensive homeland security program. This report details specific cases involving terrorists and guns purchased in the United States."--Page 1.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Instead of making us safer, U.S. law is enabling suspected terrorists to purchase the guns and explosives they need to carry out an attack. The ¿Terror Gap¿ ¿- which prohibits the gov¿t. from stopping people on the terrorist watch list from purchasing guns and explosives -- must be closed before it is too late. Given the trend in terror attacks toward firearms and explosives, this loophole in the law is a clear and present danger to the safety of Americans.

Book excerpt: Part of a series examining the technology competition between security organizations and terrorist organizations, this report focuses on understanding how terrorist groups make technology choices and consequently how the United States can discourage their adoption of advanced conventional weapons. Five types of advanced conventional weapons are identified that could provide terrorists with a new and qualitatively different weapon capability: sniper rifles, squad-level weapons, antitank missiles, large limpet mines, and mortar systems. Two key methods of limiting the threat from these systems i.

Download or read book Guys and Guns Amok written by Douglas Kellner and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-12-03 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the recent shootings at Virginia Tech University to the tragedies at Columbine and Oklahoma City, certain common traits can be traced through all of these events. In Guys and Guns Amok, media and cultural critic Douglas Kellner provides a fascinating diagnostic reading of these acts of domestic terrorism. Skillfully connecting each case with the current environment for male socialization and the search for identity in an American culture obsessed with guns and militarism, Kellner's work is a sobering reflection on these tragedies and the pervasive power of media and popular culture as well as a wake-up call for the future.
Book Synopsis Unconventional Weapons and International Terrorism by : Magnus Ranstorp
Download or read book Unconventional Weapons and International Terrorism written by Magnus Ranstorp and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2009-01-13 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, senior policy officials have highlighted increased signs of convergence between terrorism and unconventional (CBRN) weapons. Terrorism now involves technologies available to anyone, anywhere, anytime, deployed through innovative solutions. This indicates a new and more complex global security environment with increasing risks of terrorists trying to acquire and deploy a CBRN (Chemical Biological Radiological Nuclear) attack. This book addresses the critical importance of understanding innovation and decision-making between terrorist groups and unconventional weapons, and the difficulty in pinpointing what factors may drive violence escalation. It also underscores the necessity to understand the complex interaction between terrorist group dynamics and decision-making behaviour in relation to old and new technologies. Unconventional Weapons and International Terrorism seeks to identify a set of early warnings and critical indicators for possible future terrorist efforts to acquire and utilize unconventional CBRN weapons as a means to pursue their goals. It also discusses the challenge for intelligence analysis in handling threat convergence in the context of globalisation. The book will be of great interest to students of terrorism studies, counter-terrorism, nuclear proliferation, security studies and IR in general.
Book Synopsis God, Guns, and Sedition by : Bruce Hoffman
Download or read book God, Guns, and Sedition written by Bruce Hoffman and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2024-01-02 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shocking acts of terrorism have erupted from violent American far-right extremists in recent years, including the 2015 mass murder at a historic Black church in Charleston and the January 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol. These incidents, however, are neither novel nor unprecedented. They are the latest flashpoints in a process that has been unfolding for decades, in which vast conspiracy theories and radical ideologies such as white supremacism, racism, antisemitism, xenophobia, and hostility to government converge into a deadly threat to democracy. God, Guns, and Sedition offers the definitive account of the rise of far-right terrorism in the United States—and how to counter it. Leading experts Bruce Hoffman and Jacob Ware trace the historical trajectory and assess the present-day dangers of this violent extremist movement, along with the harm it poses to U.S. national security. They combine authoritative, nuanced analysis with gripping storytelling and portraits of the leaders behind this violence and their followers. Hoffman and Ware highlight key terrorist tactics, such as the use of cutting-edge communications technology; the embrace of leaderless resistance or lone-wolf strategies; infiltration and recruitment in the military and law enforcement; and the movement’s intricate relationship with mainstream politics. An unparalleled examination of one of today’s great perils, God, Guns, and Sedition ends with an array of essential practical recommendations to halt the growth of violent far-right extremism and address this global terrorist threat.
Book Synopsis The New Face of Terrorism by : Nadine Gurr
Download or read book The New Face of Terrorism written by Nadine Gurr and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2004-12-17 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anthrax, smallpox, sarin, blister, blood and choking agents - the list of potential weapons of mass destruction is enormous and varied. It was once thought that technological problems would prevent terrorists developing these weapons whilst moral issues would stop them using them. That has now changed. The technical and organizational sophistication of the attacks on 11th September 2001 heralds a new era in the age-old war against terrorism. After these attacks, attention focused on the activities and capacities of Islamic extremist groups, such as Osama bin Laden's al-Qa'eda organisation, but the reality is that terrorist threats could come from almost any quarter. This revised edition is the comprehensive and sobering account of the possibilities - technological and political.

Download or read book God and the Gun written by Martin Dillon and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-06-23 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this astonishing and at times terrifying book, acclaimed writer and political commentator Martin Dillon examines for the first time the true role of religion in the conflict in Northern Ireland. He interviewed those directly involved--terrorists like Kenny McClinton and Billy Wright and churchmen like Father Pat Buckley--finding that the terrorists were more forthcoming than the priests and ministers. Dillon charts the history of the paramilitary forces on both sides and exposes the shocking covert role of British intelligence. He finds that, ultimately, both the church and government have failed their communities, allowing men and women of violence to fill a vacuum with bigotry and violence.

Also read GUN TALK's true stories and find out what it feels like to be helpless and at the mercy of deadly criminals. Find out how not to become a victim. The Bill of Rights in our United States Constitution permits us to own weapons, under the Second Amendment. There is something in this book for everyone from anti-gunners to life-long NRA members. After all we are in the same situation together. We are all Americans and want what is best for our country. It was July 2, 2016 as I was writing this book. I took a break to watch the American Revolution on TV, unfold in front of me, and I was spell bound. Then something occurred to me. The first battles were at Lexington and Concord, Massachusetts. I wondered, who were these brave men, a militia of 400 that stood against the Kings Army, the most feared force on earth at the time. Who were these new American Patriots? Who were these heroes that dared to defy the orders King George, and risked their lives in doing so. They were nobody and they were everybody, from the farms and small towns of the new America. They were the everyday people: farmers, shop keepers, blacksmiths, and ministers ... they were Americans like us.

Book Synopsis Stealing the Sword: Limiting Terrorist Use of Advanced Conventional Weapons by :
Download or read book Stealing the Sword: Limiting Terrorist Use of Advanced Conventional Weapons written by and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines one manifestation of the general technical competition between terrorist groups and security organizations: the balance between the potential use by terrorists of advanced conventional weapons and the responses available to deter or counter them. Use of the term "advanced conventional weapons" is inclusive and broad: any new or unusual conventional weaponry developed for ordinary military forces. All weaponry is obviously designed to do damage, but new design features might enable new, or at least unfamiliar, terrorist attacks. At the same time, the usual limitation of weaponry to militaries implies that various controls could be applied. One example of this competition has received much attention: the balance between terrorist use of man-portable air defense systems (MANPADS) and U.S. responses. The November 2002 attacks in Mombasa, Kenya, using Russian-built MANPADS against an Israeli airliner, demonstrated that terrorists are able to acquire and use that type of advanced weaponry. In response, the United States has negotiated a multinational agreement that calls for imposing both technical and procedural use controls on new MANPADS, and also has started a pilot program within the Department of Homeland Security to demonstrate technical countermeasures suitable for protecting commercial aircraft from MANPADS. But MANPADS are only one of a long list of advanced conventional weapons that are potentially attractive to terrorists. This monograph explores a range of other weapons, both those still under development and those already available but relatively unused by terrorists. These weapons are as follows: sniper rifles and associated instrumentation, improved squad-level weapons of several types, long-range antitank missiles, large limpet mines, and precision indirect fire systems.
