The exchange between Ned Walker and Lee Hamilton discusses the difficulty in defining terrorism. Walker initially states that the State Department defines terrorism as politically motivated attacks on non-combatant targets. However, Hamilton questions whether attacks on military units would be considered terrorism, to which Walker says no. After further discussion, Walker acknowledges attacks can be terrorism depending on the circumstances, even if the target is military. They agree any attack on non-combatants, including military personnel, could be considered terrorism. Ultimately, Walker says it is not productive to define all the terms under which the PLO's acts would be labeled terrorism.

Crime against property
The document discusses the elements and key aspects of the crimes of robbery, theft, estafa, and bouncing checks under Philippine criminal law. It defines robbery as taking property through violence/intimidation and notes it is more serious than theft. Theft is taking property without consent. Estafa involves abuse of confidence and deceit. Bouncing checks involves issuing a check knowing there are insufficient funds to cover it. The document provides details on how each crime is committed and elements that must be proven for conviction.
NGO-USG DoD Guidelines 2005
This document outlines recommended guidelines for interactions between U.S. armed forces and non-governmental humanitarian organizations (NGHOs) operating in hostile environments. It was developed through a working group facilitated by the U.S. Institute of Peace. The guidelines aim to minimize confusion over roles by distinguishing military from humanitarian activities and preserving NGHO independence. They cover issues like information sharing, coordination, and logistical support in extremis.
Geneva convention
The Geneva Conventions establish rules for the ethical treatment of prisoners and civilians during war. They include four conventions protecting wounded/sick armed forces members, wounded/sick naval forces, prisoners of war, and civilians. Additional protocols were added in 1977. Signatories must abide by humane treatment rules even if enemies do not. Prisoners and civilians must not be subjected to torture, cruel treatment, hostage-taking, or humiliating/degrading acts.

The advancement in technology has brought a new era in terrorism where Online Social Networks (OSNs) have become a major platform of communication with wide range of usage from message channeling to propaganda and recruitment of new followers in terrorist groups. Meanwhile, during the terrorist attacks people use OSNs for information exchange, mobilizing and uniting and raising money for the victims. This paper critically analyses the specific usage of OSNs in the times of terrorisms attacks in developing countries. We crawled and used Twitter’s data during Westgate shopping mall terrorist attack in Nairobi, Kenya. We then analyzed the number of tweets, geo-location of tweets, demographics of the users and whether users in developing countries tend to tweet, retweet or reply during the event of a terrorist attack. We define new metrics (reach and impression of the tweet) and present the models for calculating them. The study findings show that, users from developing countries tend to tweet more at the first and critical times of the terrorist occurrence. Moreover, large number of tweets originated from the attacked country (Kenya) with 73% from men and 23% from women where original posts had a most number of tweets followed by replies and retweets.

This document provides an overview of Calum Robert Mewett's dissertation which explores the characteristics of the Islamic State through the framework of the debate around new and old terrorism. The dissertation will examine the origins and evolution of the Islamic State from Al Qaeda in Iraq to the prominent terrorist organization it is today. It will analyze the group's ideology, methods, and structure to determine which aspects constitute "new" terrorism as compared to old terrorist organizations. The purpose is to use the theory of new terrorism to understand key features of the Islamic State and test if it represents a new form of religiously motivated, modern terrorism.

The document discusses terrorism risk in the insurance sector. It defines terrorism and outlines the challenges in quantifying terrorism risk due to the unpredictable nature of terrorist attacks. Terrorism risk has three main components - threat, vulnerability, and consequence. Threat refers to the probability of an attack occurring, vulnerability is the probability of damage resulting from an attack, and consequence is the expected magnitude of damage. Terrorism risk is calculated as the product of these three components. Estimating each component is challenging due to uncertainties. The document also provides a brief history of terrorism and different types of terrorism.
White7e ppt ch01
This document discusses the complexities in defining terrorism. It notes that terrorism is a social construct that changes based on political and historical contexts. Different groups, such as the FBI and Organization of Islamic Conferences, have defined terrorism and related groups differently. The document also examines how the definition of terrorism has changed over time and been used to both condemn opponents but also legitimize certain actions. Overall, it argues that due to these complex social and political factors, reaching a universal definition of terrorism that is not controversial has proved extremely difficult.
Harry Potter and the Broken Geneva Conventions.pdf
The document discusses whether international humanitarian law (IHL) would apply to the brutal Wizarding World Wars depicted in the Harry Potter universe. It analyzes each of the three Wizarding World Wars - the Global Wizarding War, the First Wizarding War, and the Second Wizarding War - and determines that they likely constituted non-international armed conflicts (NIACs) to which IHL could apply. The wars involved armed groups like Grindelwald's Alliance, Voldemort's Death Eaters, and Dumbledore's Army opposing governmental forces like the Ministry of Magic in prolonged armed violence that met the legal thresholds for NIACs under the Geneva Conventions and Additional Protocol II.
[2012 12-04 3] - terrorism definition and type
The document discusses definitions of terrorism and analyzes prevailing definitions. It notes that an agreed upon international definition is lacking due to various perspectives and complexities. Existing definitions are seen as vague, biased and based on self-interests. They also fail to distinguish between terrorism and legitimate freedom struggles. The document proposes that a comprehensive discussion under the UN is needed to develop a definition that is not influenced by self-interests and differentiates terrorism from freedom fighting and guerrilla warfare. It also outlines various types of terrorism like religious and nationalist terrorism that exist due to factors like globalization and social injustice.

Terrorism & its impat on international business
This document discusses the impact of terrorism on international trade. It finds that countries that experience more terrorist attacks trade less with each other, as terrorism increases security costs and the risks of direct damage or disruption. There are three main ways terrorism hinders trade: by raising business costs through insecurity, increasing security measures that slow trade, and allowing potential destruction of goods or infrastructure. The 9/11 terrorist attacks had short-term impacts like economic uncertainty but the US stock market demonstrated resilience in the long-run.

Street gangs terrorists and outlaw bikers smith-harms withpaper
The document examines the perceived threat of organized crime groups with military-trained members (MTGMs) in communities. A survey of law enforcement found most agree that street gangs, outlaw motorcycle gangs, and domestic extremist groups have members with military experience or training. Those with more knowledge of MTGMs perceived a greater threat, seeing evidence of these groups using military weapons, tactics, and committing violent crimes. More research is needed with broader samples to better understand the threat posed by organized criminal groups connected to the military.

The presence of military-trained gang members (MTGMs) in the community increases the threat of violence to citizens. The problem addressed was the growing presence of military-trained gang members in civilian communities in Tennessee. We examined the perceived presence of military-trained gang members of gang investigators at the annual conference and whether there had been changes since the previous survey. Many respondents reported gang members in their jurisdictions were increasingly using military-type weapons or explosives (51%), as well as military-type equipment like body armor, night-vision devices, etc. (30%). Although few (24%) agreed that gang members were using military-type tactics, a majority (over 90%) reported gang members committed home invasions and armed robberies. Many (46%) reported that there were gang members in their jurisdiction currently serving in the military, while 64% reported they had gang members who had served. Most of the respondents (66%) did not believe that military representatives advised their department when gang members were discharged from the military. More of the 2014 respondents than those in 2010 reported gang member use of military weapons, explosives, and equipment. More also reported gang members committed home invasions and armed robberies, and gang members currently in the military in their jurisdictions. Fewer thought their organization had a working relationship with military investigative authorities.Success tips for (my) classes

It covers the history of private security, challenges in the field, perceptions of security professionals, efforts toward professionalization, current education practices, and the future of the industry. Key points include the growth of private security surpassing public policing; the shift to higher education needs due to technological and criminal advancements; ensuring security is perceived as a true profession through qualification, academic acceptance, and corporate recognition; and preparing for future trends like increased cyber threats, social media challenges, and crisis management responsibilities.Gang investigators' perceptions of military trained gang members in the south...
Gang investigators' perceptions of military trained gang members in the south...Carter F. Smith, J.D., Ph.D.
Communities everywhere have experienced the negative effects of street gangs. The presence of military-trained gang members (MTGMs) in the community increases the threat of violence to citizens. The problem addressed was the apparently growing presence of military-trained gang members in civilian communities in two southern states. The purpose was to determine the perceived presence of military-trained gang members and examine whether there was a relationship between the perceptions of gang investigators regarding the presence and the size of their jurisdictions, the proximity of their jurisdictions to a military installation, and the extent to which investigators participate in anti-gang activities. The Army, Army National Guard, and Army Reserve were identified as the largest sources of MTGMs and the Bloods, Crips, and Gangster Disciples were the gangs most represented. Military leaders should acknowledge the increase in gang-related crime and address the problems caused for both military and civilian communities without attempting to quantify the threat level. Military leadership should continuously examine activities of all suspected gang members for active gang affiliation for retention purposes while evaluating any gang affiliation for security clearances. Military Law Enforcement liaison for recruiters should develop effective communication with law enforcement agencies to assist with information sharing.Gangcoptechspeak
Technology advances have changed the way the average American communicates, plans his or her day, shops, drives, and does many other things. Technology has changed the way criminals, specifically gang members, live their lives as well. As gangs evolve, many adopt more of a business model. How does that affect the way law enforcement should investigate them?
You will get an overview of criminal communications options, actions, and interactions followed by a discussion of how law enforcement – mostly gang cops – can and do respond. Ideas on how to engage, assist, or even thwart the detection of such activity will be provided. The use of metaphors to explain how technology functions often helps the not-so-literate grasp the concepts we will discuss – an impromptu brainstorming session on how that works will likely occur.

The identification process for Domestic Extremists requires considering many indicators. Recently released research indicates examining the mix of behavioral indicators such as personal connections, ideology, travel, and training may prove beneficial in determining the existence of an individual’s extremist views. The presentation suggests using these indicators not as a checklist but as a type of scale to help analysts determine priorities for research and investigation as resources become available.

1) As gang members age, they gain more experience with crime and violence. This can make older gangs more sophisticated and dangerous than youth gangs.
2) Studies show the average age of gang members has increased over time, with over 70% of gang members now adults. As juveniles stay in gangs into adulthood, it increases the number of experienced criminals.
3) Advanced adult gangs may take on new criminal objectives beyond local turf wars. Some evolve into transnational criminal organizations comparable to organized crime groups. Addressing these challenges requires a coordinated community response.

Gabbidon examined perceptions of criminal justice students in a security administration class, asking reasons for taking the course, knowledge regarding the security field, their career objective, and whether they considered working in the security field. He later asked whether their interest in working in the security field had decreased, increased, or remained the same, whether their respect for the field decreased, increased, or remained the same, and how they would rate the course in comparison to other criminal justice courses they had taken. This research was replicated to determine differences in perceptions of security administration by current criminal justice students.

Abstract: With the growing presence of criminal street gang members in the United States, communities everywhere are experiencing the damaging impact of their criminal behavior. A 2011 report by the National Gang Intelligence Center reported the number of gang members in the United States was conservatively estimated at 1.4 million. As these gang members evolve, are they using our nation’s colleges and universities to educate themselves? How will that affect our communities? This paper reports results of a survey of college students and campus police regarding their perception of the presence of gang members on their campus. Less than one in four students agreed there was a gang problem in the community around their campus, while two of three of the police respondents agreed with the statement. Students and police agreed in similar percentages that there was a gang problem within the campus community. At least half of both students and police thought gang members were responsible for less than 10% of crime on campus. About two of three students and police reported less than 10% of the students were active gang members.

Gang Investigators' Perceptions of Military-Trained Gang Members in the Sout...Carter F. Smith, J.D., Ph.D.
This research study was designed to describe characteristics and perceptions of members of two Gang Investigators' Associations and to examine whether a relationship existed between the perceptions of gang investigators regarding the presence of MTGMs in their jurisdictions and the size of the gang investigators’ jurisdiction (i.e., county size, number of officers employed), the extent to which the gang investigators participate in anti-gang activities, the proximity of the gang investigators’ jurisdiction to a military installation (from survey and computed), time spent in anti-gang activities, age of investigator, and military installation size. The Military Gang Perception Questionnaire (MGPQ) (Smith, 2010), was used to address the goals of the study. A few of the questions paralleled a prior survey by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) (2007). The data and results of this study will be published and discussed elsewhere for academic and training purposes without openly identifying the source of information per an agreement between the author and the association board of directors.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
