Terrorism exists for various reasons. For some individuals, the issue of
terrorism is rooted in a clash of ideology. Others contend that terrorism
is a "clash of civilizations." (Fiala, 2007, p. 165).
With the fight against terrorism launched in Afghanistan, Iraq, and the
Middle East, many in the Muslim world feel that America is evil and
that its ways are misguided. In fact, some say that you need look no
further than the Abu Ghraib scandal, where administrative evil was
displayed (Adams, Balfour, & Reed, 2006, p. 680).
In addition, experts would argue that many terrorist attacks are not
conducted by crazy people, but rather by intelligent and religiously
motivated individuals who could be seen as martyrs (Guss, Tuason, &
Teixeira, 2007, p. 417).
Tasks:
Prepare a 3- to 4-page report to answer the following questions.
Analyze and explain the differences in ideology that might force an
individual to commit a terroristic act?

2. Do you think terrorists could be viewed as martyrs? Why?
Do you think people who are willing to give their life for their cause are
sane and rational or insane and irrational? Why?

CJA 426 Module 2 Assignment 2 No Fly List

3. For more classes visit
www.snaptutorial.com
The No Fly List is created and maintained by the US government's
Terrorist Screening Center (TSC) to screen those individuals who are
not permitted to travel in a commercial aircraft within or outside the
United States (Ross, 2010).
The No Fly List is different from the Terrorist Watch List, which is a
much bigger list of people suspected of involvement in terrorist acts
(Ross, 2010).
Nevertheless, the No Fly List has been criticized on grounds of violating
civil liberties and on due process grounds, due, in part, to the potential
for ethnic, religious, economic, political, or racial profiling and
discrimination (Friscolanti & Patriquin, 2008, p. 50).
In addition, the No Fly List contains the names of people who are dead,
prisoners, and at least 1,000 duplicate names—that is, people with
similar names as those on the No Fly List are stopped for questioning
when they have no nexus with terrorism (Donnelly, 2004, p. 17).
Tasks:
Prepare a 3- to 4-page report to answer the following questions:
Do you consider the No Fly List as discriminatory in nature and
violating an individual's civil rights? Why?

4. Do you agree with the statement, "the No Fly List is one of the best lines
oz defense" (Ross, 2010)? Why?
Do you agree to the statement, "the No Fly List is costly, prone to false
positives, and easily defeated" (Ross, 2010)? Why?

Security Proposal for Centervale
For more classes visit
www.snaptutorial.com

5. The city of Centervale has submitted a proposal to the state to host the
next political convention for a major political party. The site for this
convention will be the Centervale Convention Center. Until now, the
facility has been used for trade shows and local concerts.
The facility is a large circular building with a domelike roof. The fire
code for the building is slated at 900 people. Visitors enter the center
through nine sets of double doors made of glass that are situated at the
front of the building. Behind the center is a loading dock with a set of
double doors and parking for two large trucks. One can access the stage
through the loading dock without being seen by visitors. The center is
multileveled, with seats that extend upward.
From the main entrance, people can access their seats through two sets
of staircases or one bank of elevators. The center has a closed circuit
television (CCTV) that was installed in 1993 and an alarm system was
added in 1998. Both the CCTV and alarms are focused on the doors of
the center. The center has a team of security for hire during events—they
have received no training beyond basic crowd management.
For each event, visitors can purchase tickets from the center's ticket
booth. The booth is enclosed in glass and is located at the front of the
building, centered between the sets of entrance doors. Workers in the
ticket booth enter with a key or by knocking until other workers open the
door. The workers' door into the ticket booth is off the main concourse
of the visitors' entrance to the center. The center manager's office has a
door with cipher lock and passcoded cash safe. The passcode to both
locks is given to the head of security for each event. An armored vehicle
from a secure money transport company comes two hours before an
event and three hours after an event to empty the contents of the safe.
Tasks:

6. Based on this description given above, you have been asked by the Chief
of Police, the Mayor's office, and the Convention Center Manager to
review, assess, and draft the security proposal for the facility.
After your evaluation, you will complete a 4–6 page security risk
assessment report with recommendations for change based on your
analysis and findings.
Using APA in-text citations and three external sources that are referred
to on a corresponding reference page, conduct a security risk assessment
of the Convention Center. You will review the physical layout of the
site, the vulnerabilities, and potential risk areas.
You are supposed to conduct the assessment from the point of view of a
private security agent. Your investigation of the property must include
an assessment of asset protection and potential threats or vulnerabilities.
Your assessment should:
Include the techniques that you use during your investigation. Describe
the techniques used and why you chose to use them.
Conduct a security risk assessment of the Convention Center as a private
security agent. Assess the protection of assets at this location, potential
threats, or vulnerabilities. Would your assessment be only for the
Convention Center, or should it encompass other sites that could impact
the center's needs?
Create a plan of recommendations for improving the property in terms of
safety, financial protection, and overall security. What benefits do you
think would result from your proposed changes?
Explore some of the current issues facing the private security and
investigation industry. What impact do these issues have on
investigation practices?

7. Analyze why it is important to conduct legal and ethical private
investigation and security practices. What consequences may occur if
illegal or unethical practices are followed?

Centervale and Counterterrorism
For more classes visit

It's 4:15 p.m., and a "Breaking News" alert flashes across the television
channels. Jim Jones, one of the local news anchors, interrupts the
regularly scheduled program with devastating news: The city of
Gainsville, a high-profile and very prosperous neighboring city, has
suffered a terrorist attack.
Jones reads the report, "Ladies and gentlemen, I have some terrible
news. Moments ago, two college students, believed to be part of an
unidentified terrorist group, launched an attack on the city of Gainsville.
The details of the attack are still being collected, but what we know now
is that they have struck at the heart of Gainsville. The Channel 12 news
station was the first to be attacked. Reports are coming in that a man
posing as a member of the cleaning staff gained entry into the lobby of
the building, removed an AK-47 from a trash bin, and began to fire
indiscriminately. As the wounded victims of this tragic event were
rushed to the hospital for care, a woman posing as a sick patient in
Gainsville Memorial Hospital emergency room removed her jacket,
revealing a vest covered in C-4 explosives, seconds before committing
suicide by setting off the bomb, killing and injuring several people. The
tragedies are just unfolding, and local, state, and federal law

9. enforcement agencies are all on the scene. We are on location at Channel
12 and at Gainsville Memorial . . ."
The mayor of Centervale is concerned that there may be more attacks on
the way because Centervale is home to one of the largest nuclear power
plants in the country. Some of the Centervale city officials are concerned
about the cost of protecting Centervale's nuclear plant in conjunction
with other important structures. Internal conflicts have arisen between
some county commissioners on the issue of how to fairly allocate funds
to Centervale's structures that are under threat, such as the airport and
water systems.
As part of the mayor's Terrorism Assessment and Response Team, your
first report assessed the risk to a particularly high-profile venue in
Centervale. Now, it has become critical to work with a second team,
which is analyzing information to assess the threat and the
counterterrorism efforts toward protecting Centervale's nuclear power
plant.
A formal report on the group's analysis will be given to your supervisor,
the mayor, city officials, and other key stakeholders in a few hours. You
are provided with a list of criteria for the report, and you begin your
search by looking at the US Department of State's 2003 Global
Terrorism Report, located on this
website:http://www.state.gov/documents/organization/31912.pdf
Use the Argosy University's online library to obtain additional resources
to complete your report.
The City of Centervale is counting on your report to help assess the
complexities of this situation and any potential risk to Centervale's
nuclear power plant.

10. Here's What You Need to Do . . .
Prepare a report (8- to10-page) considering the following points:
Perform research on women suicide bombers in the United States.
Evaluate how likely Centervale is to experience a female suicide
bomber. Discuss where female suicide bombers are common and what
other roles females from nations that support terrorism may play in
terrorist operations in the United States.
Research the cost of counterterrorism in a post-9/11 era. Has the cost to
protect the nation's nuclear power plants risen since 9/11? Explain why
the general public could interpret blowing up nuclear power plants,
generally speaking, as weapons of mass destruction (WMD). Based on
your research, suggest a method to protect Centervale's nuclear power
plant from attack without bankrupting the city.
Research the political aspects of terrorism and the differences of
opinions that stakeholders might have when it comes to strategies for
protecting Centervale's most important venues. Explain how terrorism
destabilizes a government. Further, explain how the manner in which a
city's government handles a terrorist attack (i.e., New York City)
influences its mayor's or city official's political position.
Recommend a cost-effective antiterrorism training solution for the
Centervale Police Department. Discuss how the training can be a
proactive approach to deterrence and a reactive approach to an attack.
