The document discusses the various instruments used for counterterrorism, including diplomacy, law enforcement, financial controls, military power, and intelligence gathering. It notes that while each tool has limitations, using them together in an integrated manner is critical to fighting terrorism effectively. For each instrument, it provides a brief overview of how it can be used against terrorism and what some of the key limitations are.
Intelligence as a set of permanent institutions dates back only to the second half of the nineteenth century. But as information and news - in the dictionary meaning used in English since the middle of the fifteenth century, of 'knowledge as to events, communicated by or obtained from another, especially military' - it has always been collected as part of warfare
For a military, it can mean knowledge of the enemy and can distinguish between to defeat and to lose because information means knowledge and knowledge are power. Analysts see it as a package of information pending for clarification, and policymakers consider they should be informed so that they can meet the needs, stated or understood.
Intelligence gathers under the same umbrella the informational component of national security, internal and external policies, as well as certain aspects of international security in the case of global cross-entities (states, organizations).
This presentation is built up by gathering information from different references (Book, Articles, and Newspapers) by the author.

Terrorism in International Law: The struggle to define terrorismAnthony Veluz
International Criminal Justice.
In our ICJ module we are required to do a presentation in each seminar on the week's topic area. Our presentation would usually consist of one of:
- literature review
- case review
- current issues
For our final seminar we had to give a presentation on one of the following topics:
- aggression
- terrorism
- torture
My presentation was on terrorism and I mainly looked at the literature on this area, with the odd case and current issues included. My primary focus was on the definition of terrorism as I couldn't find a universally accepted definition and looked at the problems this caused. The battle against terrorism is difficult enough, hampered by the absence of a definition. I examine the reasons as to why there isn't a definition, the difficulties in establishing one, the effect of establishing one, and therefore answering the question whether a definition of terrorism is actually needed.

The techniques that are being used to combat terrorism in the countries updat...intel-writers.com
Countries employ a variety of techniques to combat terrorism and ensure the safety of their citizens. These techniques encompass intelligence gathering, law enforcement measures, international cooperation, legislation, community engagement, and disruption of terrorist financing.
Intelligence gathering plays a crucial role, involving the collection and analysis of information to identify potential threats and disrupt terrorist activities. Law enforcement agencies employ measures such as increased security at critical locations, advanced screening technologies, and surveillance systems to detect and deter potential threats.
Legislation and legal frameworks are enacted to provide tools for combating terrorism, prosecuting individuals involved in terrorist activities, strengthening border controls, enhancing intelligence sharing, and countering terrorist financing. International cooperation is essential, with countries sharing intelligence, coordinating efforts, and implementing joint initiatives to disrupt terrorist networks.
Countries also develop comprehensive counterterrorism strategies that address the root causes of terrorism, prevent radicalization, and promote community resilience. Public awareness campaigns educate individuals about signs of radicalization and the importance of reporting potential threats.
Disrupting terrorist financing is a key focus, with efforts made to track and freeze assets, implement financial regulations, and prevent money laundering. Ethical considerations and respect for human rights are crucial in all counterterrorism measures.

Abstract: In lay man’s language, terrorism is the spread of terror through the use of guns, bombs, chemical weapons or any other form of violent, coercive, ambush. Counter Terrorism, on the other hand, is to retaliate and put a check to it is what we know and address terrorism. At the UN level, the international community has adopted a number of international treaties that are designed to combat specific types of terrorism, such as the hijacking of aircrafts. However, till date there has been no agreement on a definition of terrorism. The recent attempt by the UN to define terrorism in UN General Assembly Report (28 January - 1 February) has been criticized for its lack of precision.

This presentation was presented in December 2012 at John Jay College of Criminal Justice in the course "Capstone in International Crime and Justice". The course is the culminating course of the MA program in International Crime and Justice program that seeks to train its students to tackle current issues in international criminal justice. The presentation is based upon the paper written by the presenter for the same course.
Statement of policy problem: Current Counter-Terrorism (CT) policy has been very heavily focused on crime prevention techniques that deal with the formal sectors. However, the anti-money laundering/counter financing of terrorism (AML/CFT) regime has had a negative impact on the work of humanitarian organizations, charities and the larger NPO sector. These organizations provide another key piece to CT policy and prevention as well as critical services during crises. CT policy needs to be adjusted to prevent further abuses and marginalization of this key sector.

Cyber Weapons Proliferation
Name:
Date: 03-30-2021
TOPIC: CYBER WEAPON PROLIFERATION
Currently there is no widely accepted definition on the concept of cyber weapon, but it can be described as a tool which has been modified for the purpose of carrying out malicious threats or attacks in the cyber space.
The use of Cyber space as a weapon is gradually gaining recognition, to the extent that it is currently been considered a Weapon of Mass Destruction.
In the US. For Instance, the Department of Homeland Security is tasked with the responsibility of protecting its citizens against any form of threat including cyber-attacks. The US has traditionally been perceived to be the world's most dominant cyber force in terms of this kind. Both their capabilities (defensive and offensive) have been actively developed over the last two decades, and appear to be superior to others. In order to strengthen U.S. space defense, the United States Cyber Command (US CYBER) was established in 2010 to ensure freedom of action in cyberspace for the US government and its allies, but prevent adversaries from doing the same.
The three service elements that comprise USCYBER are the Army Cybercom, the Air Force Cybercom, and the Fleet Cybercom. In August 2017 the United States Cyber Command was elevated to the status of a Unified Combatant Command. The National Defense Strategy for 2018 stated that the US government will prioritize the integration of cyber capabilities into the full spectrum of military operations.[footnoteRef:1] [1: Cristian Barbieri, Jean-Pierre Darnis & Carolina Polito
“Non-proliferation Regime for Cyber Weapons. A Tentative Study” http://www.iai.it/sites/default/files/iai1803.pdf accessed March 30th, 2021]
The proliferations in weaponisation of cyber space by terrorist groups to carry out destructive threats have necessitated the need for in depth analysis on the regulation of the use of cyber space.
In conclusion, although clearly resembling weapons, others say cyberspace might have a different potential to do great harm without actually inflicting financial or human loss, often cyber weapons may be used as less dangerous "conventional" weapons and canolays.
However, due to the fast pace of cyber-related technological developments, leadership changes, senior defense officials must be up to speed with how these technologies impact national security and defense mechanisms so they can have updated or revisions to the current laws regulating cyber usage.
Furthermore, it is suggested that in other to combat the use of cyber space as a weapon, one has to disable the source of the threat in order to neutralize the "cyber weapon" used to attack a target, thereby rendering them ineffective.
In my opinion, limited reliance on cyber space is recommended to effectively combat cyber space terrorism.

Palestine last event orientationfvgnh .pptxRaedMohamed3
An EFL lesson about the current events in Palestine. It is intended to be for intermediate students who wish to increase their listening skills through a short lesson in power point.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

THE INSTRUMENTS OF
COUNTERTERRORISM
By Paul R. Pillar
National Intelligence Officer for Near East and South
Asia
National Intelligence Council, Central Intelligence
Agency
U. S. FOREIGN POLICY AGENDA, AN ELECTRONIC JOURNAL OF THE
2. Combining efforts
• Counterterrorism includes effective use of diplomacy, law
enforcement, financial controls, military power, and
intelligence gathering. Every counterterrorist instrument is
difficult to use. Using them well together is even more
difficult. But using them all is critical in the fight against
terrorism.
3. DIPLOMACY
• Diplomacy is critical to
combating modern international
terrorism. Agreements between
countries on cooperation,
coordination, and exchange of
information set the frames for
combatting terrorism. There
are documents and regulations of
UN, EU, and NATO which are
the basis for international efforts
in counterterrorism.
• The limitations of diplomacy as
a counterterrorist tool are
obvious. Terrorists do not change
their behavior in response to a
treaty or UN resolution. But
diplomacy supports all of the
other tools by providing an
international legal framework for
their use.
4. LAW ENFORCEMENT
• Use of the criminal justice system
can help reduce terrorism in several
ways. Imprisoning a terrorist for
life (or executing him/her)
obviously prevents him/her from
conducting any more attacks. The
prospect of being caught and
punished may deter other terrorists
from attacking in the first place.
• A limitation of applying the
criminal justice system to terrorism
is that the prospect of being caught
and punished does not deter some
terrorists. That prospect is
irrelevant to suicide bombers, and
also to other low-level operatives
who feel commitment and
desperation. High-level terrorist
leaders — who typically stay
farther removed from the scene of
the crime and are more difficult to
catch — may care little about
whether those below them are
caught.
5. FINANCIAL CONTROLS
• The funding makes it possible
for the terrorists to get trained, to
obtain weapons, and to travel.
There are two types of financial
controls to combat terrorism:
1.the freezing of assets belonging
to individual terrorists, terrorist
groups, and state sponsors; and
2. the prohibition of material
support to terrorists.
• Cutting off terrorists’ funding has
two major limitations: 1. most
terrorism does not require large-
scale financing. Less money is
involved than in illegal narcotics,
arms trafficking, and some other
transnational criminal activities.
2. the flow of terrorist money is
extremely difficult to track.
There are false account names,
the use of financial
intermediaries, etc.
6. MILITARY FORCE
• Modern, precision-guided
munitions have made armed
force a more useful
counterterrorist instrument, but
one whose use is still
appropriately rare. Over the last
three decades they have been
used to rescue hostages. More
recently the military instrument
has been employed to react
against terrorist attacks.
• The major limitation of military
force is that terrorist assets,
unlike conventional military
assets, are not large, fixed targets
that can readily be destroyed.
With the terrorist threat now
coming much more from groups
than from states, there are even
fewer targets to strike, either to
damage terrorist capabilities or
to deter future terrorism.
7. INTELLIGENCE
• The collection and analysis of
intelligence is the least visible
but in some ways the most
important counterterrorist tool,
and is considered the “first line
of defense” against terrorism.
• There are limitations, mainly
because very specific, tactical
intelligence is vital and it is
difficult to collect because it
requires penetration of groups
that are small, suspicious to
outsiders, and very careful about
their security. Most intelligence
about terrorist groups is
fragmentary, ambiguous, and
often of doubtful credibility.
