A series of attacks and attempted attacks took place across Thailand from the 10th to the 12th of August, with additional devices being discovered intermittently over the weekend in multiple locations. In total, four lives were lost and scores of locals and tourists were injured. The pre-planned campaign coincided with the three-day bank holiday weekend to celebrate the Thai Queen’s Birthday / Mother’s Day celebrations.

The most frightening and totally ignored political reality is that a group of provincial leaders is independently running the federal government and the provinces without any sign of an Integrated Provincial and National Vision and Plan of Action.
A provincially, administratively and politically weak and handicapped central government and on-their-own provincial governments do not seem to have the much needed will and the resources to forcefully eliminate the political and corporate crime mafias now evidently hiding behind unquestionably fake war against terror which is the biggest global political, diplomatic and military fraud of the past and present century. Pakistan’s problem is not war against terrorism. Pakistan’s problem is now identified criminal political and alleged corporate mafias who are plundering and hollowing Pakistan by hiding and acting from behind the mask of war against terror, the failure of law enforcement agencies to unmask them and recruitment of armed gangs of criminals by a number of, not all, politicians and corporate tycoons as security guards.
THE BOTTOM LINE IS: Stop using the term TERRORISTS and start chasing the CRIMINALS!

On initial consideration, the idea of reintegration might seem peripheral to achieving the objectives of a counterinsurgency campaign, and that demanding surrender should be the order of the day, not seeking mutual forgiveness. However, nothing could be further from reality. In countering an insurgency the motives of each fighter and supporter dictate their adversarial actions, and the potential size of the insurgency is theoretically limited only by the population of the country itself. On deeper reflection then, the salience of reintegration rapidly emerges as central to any successful strategy to conclude an insurgency.
An enduring peace among antagonists in an insurgency and a lasting recourse to the sovereignty of the in-power government can only be properly expressed in terms that encompass the reintegration of the host society. In its most holistic form, reintegration encompasses not only fighters who have taken up violent resort to obtain their own ends, but also fragments and factions in society that are disenfranchised, ostracised or otherwise excluded from participating in a country’s social-political construct between its government and the people.
Lasting reintegration is much harder to foster and generate than simply announcing a policy. Personal allegiances, misgivings, fear, and human and institutional frailty all seem arrayed against even attempting reintegration, yet is a valid and indeed fundamental aim in counterinsurgency that must be grasped, like a nettle, with confidence and vigour. Reintegration not only has a role for all actors – police, civil and military – but indeed demands of them a common purpose, and a truly concerted effort to attain it. This paper draws on six months of field work in southern Afghanistan grappling with these challenges.

REPLY TO EACH RESPONSE 100 WORDS MIN EACH .docxchris293
**********REPLY TO EACH RESPONSE 100 WORDS MIN EACH **********
1.) For this week's forum, I nuclear weapons. Nuclear weapons have been symbols of power and destructions that can rip and destroy the human composition, if not the entire world. Nuclear weapons have been used only twice in combat in the history of the world. The first was in Hiroshima on August 6, 1945, and the second time on August 9, 1945. these two events eradicated almost 250,000 people on its initial impact called the blast. In 1945 a 15 kiloton bomb called little boy wipe between 90,000 and 146,000 people in Hiroshima, and a 20 kiloton bomb called Fat man wipe from 39,000 and 80,000 in Nagasaki. However, the blast death toll does not include the lives lost due to the after-effects of radiation exposure, especially those in contact with the black rain. It is believed that this rain that happened right after the initial blast was contaminated with radioactive materials. This rain extended several miles from the epicenter of the bombs. However, the technology that is used today for nuclear weaponry is more advanced and powerful that what was used 75 years ago. This year, the Russian RS-28 Sarmat, commonly known as "Satan 2," was scheduled to be tested for its intercontinental ballistic missile capabilities. Furthermore, even when the information disclosure of this missile is not fully accessible to everyone, it is believed that this missile has the capability of 50,000 kilotons, 7,500 percent greater than the little boy nuclear bomb. Moreover, the death toll of nuclear incidents is not only associated with the use of these two bombs nuclear disasters such as Fukushima and Chernobyl add to the millions of lives lost.
2,) For this week’s forum post I decided to talk about sarin gas, as it seems to appear more and more in the Middle East region. Its usage has also been linked to terrorist groups such as ISIS. Sarin gas is an extremely toxic nerve agent that is an odorless, colorless liquid. It can even be lethal at a very low quantity, capable of killing within a matter of minutes after inhalation. Sarin gas works by suffocating its victims due to respiratory paralysis. Even individuals who absorb a nonlethal amount can have permanent nerve damage if they are not treated immediately. Accessibility to the agent is frightening easy for a well-organized terrorist group, such as ISIS, in the Middle East region because of the fact that governments in the area have or had stockpiles of chemical weapons (example, Syria). The consequences of terrorists using chemical weapons has been seen first-hand in Raqqa, Syria when ISIS deployed the agent upon retreating Syrian forces. The reports are that ISIS obtain the sarin from Syria’s stockpile. The fact that a terror group can get their hands on such a powerful chemical weapon is quite alarming as the affects could be devastating. To give an idea of what these weapons can do we can look back to 2013 when the Assad regime .

Introduction
The topic of security has been an issue for many countries and citizens alike as countries struggle to root out the vice of insecurity that is posing a great threat especially during this technological era where everything is virtually done online. Today every country around the world is grappling with keeping its citizens and institutions safe from external attacks and threats. Some of these threats could be motivated by various factors ranging from political, economic and social issues which make individuals or groups plan some sort of leveling score mission. If we were to review history in the early days during the 17th and 18th century the issues of insecurity among various nations were in existence but not at the height it is in the wake of the 21st century. Those days’ strategic alliances worked best in culminating threats of external and internal invasion, various leaders would call for peaceful resolution of the indifference that might exist between or among groups of nations. The mode or means of attack was not as sophisticated as it today since the only way terrorists would invade empires those days were through the physical means of actually leading an invasion group or plotting with a team on the ground to execute their plan.
Today this tactic has changed leaving institutions mandated with protecting our boundaries and keeping the people safe with a huge task of coming up with various ways of knowing how, where and when the security threats might actually occur. Some of the world leading security institutions that have earned a name for themselves are the homeland security, the Federal Bureau of Investigation FBI and Scotland Yard. These institutions have in the recent past prevented so many attacks plotted against the United States of America and many countries around the world through tapping the wide insecurity network around the world.
Background research
The issue of terrorism and external attacks has led to numerous loss of lives and property and must be cubed and properly managed using the most efficient methods so as to ensure proper security. It is evident that terrorists no longer use outdated strategies while carrying out attacks. With technology evolving with time, they have learned and mastered the use of new technology and have succeeded in coming up with some of the toughest attacks to prevent. Therefore, the DHS is left with a tough task and must improvise some of the best tactics in their strategic plan so as to have a proper chance in managing the situation. The intelligent gathering is one of the best elements that can be applied by the DHS in order to come up with the right solutions that will stop or prevent external attacks and terrorism.

CRJ 570
National Political Convention Project Guidelines
This assignment requires the student to conduct an analysis of Al Qaeda planned and actual
biennial attacks and patterns of operations that coincide with the U.S. national biennial
political campaigns. The analysis anticipates that the terrorist organization desires to carry
out attacks inside America and against Americans, as well as against American interests
abroad.
Your Role and Assignment:
For this project, you will assume the role of an Intelligence Analyst assigned to a State
Fusion Center. A Fusion Center is a collaborative effort of multiple agencies that provide
resources, expertise, and information with the goal of maximizing the ability to detect,
prevent, investigate, and respond to criminal and terrorist activity. Fusion centers conduct
analysis and facilitate information sharing to assist law enforcement and homeland security
partners in preventing, protecting against, and responding to crime and terrorism. State and
major urban area fusion centers serve as primary focal points for the receipt, analysis,
gathering, and sharing of threat-related information among federal, state, local, tribal, and
territorial (SLTT) partners. Fusion centers are located in states and major urban areas
throughout the country and are uniquely situated to enable law enforcement personnel to
gather and share threat-related information.
Given certain trend information, in your intelligence analyst role you have been tasked with
gathering specific information regarding specific past attacks by Al Qaeda. You will note the
majority of listed incidents appear to have occurred during the six months and in the
immediate eight week period preceding the biennial elections. Gathering and collecting
covers the acquisition of raw information through activities such as interviews of confidential
and other sources, surveillances, intercepts, forensics, and liaison relationships. Information
can be gathered from open sources and other more sophisticated sources. You are being
requested to use open sources for this assignment. Open source intelligence is publicly
available and accessible information appearing in electronic or print form and includes radio,
television, newspapers, journals, the internet, commercial databases, drawings, graphics,
and videos. The use of Wikipedia or any other “Wiki” sources are strictly prohibited for this
assignment. Keep in mind that trend analysis does not predict future events but it can be a
powerful tool for strategic planning by creating plausible and detailed scenarios or views of
what might occur. The information you develop will be used in conjunction with other
intelligence being gathered and analyzed incident to planning and preparing security and
counterterrorism efforts for an upcoming National Political Convention in the U.S.
Intelligence indicates an attack is being planned consistent with t.

· Try to be clearer in your introduction.
· Make sure it is clear exactly what form of organized crime you are looking into, what theory of social control you will use to understand our responses to it and also how big you believe the issue is.
· You should cite more sources. There are none in your introduction and only one in the first four paragraphs where you are discussing definitions.
· Section on constructions also needs references.
· You should do more to tie in your writing about 'crime control' to the paragraphs about social control. Does the depiction of the rational offender justify the methods of crime control that you described?
· You should not to explaining why the Russian mafia do what they do, more whether there is evidence that they are a serious threat. Should have a decisive conclusion
· Also find some book quotes and put in the paper. Find intext citation and reference on the same

Dear Sir/Madam,
Re: ALARMING INSTANCE OF ORGANIZED CRIME
It is with profound distress, pain and fear of death that I have decided to write this piece to you sir. The rate of organized crimes happenings in our country, at the moment, is contemptible, outrageous and extreme. I am taking off all my professional caps to implore you that you intervene within and take the appropriate measure to abort this menace out of our nation.
I am writing as one among many citizens that have faced and experienced or otherwise been victimized of crime. It is with this reflection of dread fear tormenting all of us that we have opted to request your account of action. I cannot forget the pain that many citizens are undergoing ranging from old to young, men, women and children. Their lives are endangered at every step of their endeavors surviving amidst the frozen nation of war, terrorism and radicalization. Not forgetting one of our own young men and women who are being slaughtered like bulls in our own streets and cities.
I appeal to you that you reflect the kind of resounding distress your people are undergoing. The place where the residents are living at the moment is insecure and marred with threats and danger. Whenever the citizens are raising voices, have in mind that they are in dire need of your intercession and help. For instance, I have received regular threats from various unknown persons due to my forward looking character to my fellow citizens. This has deeply put my life in danger.
There is no doubt that the rate of crimes reported in the past has escalated alarmingly. Sir, you have to recognize the desperation our people are in for peace and this peril of criminality. This all what the citizens would plead to have now and in the future. However, this would not be possible until ...
ISS Risk Special Report - Marawi complex militant attack 6 JunRobbie Van Kampen
Marawi City, Mindanao - Hidden hand of the Islamic State announcing its presence in SE Asia.
Terrorism and insecurity in the southern region of The Philippines, particularly the province of Mindanao, is the leading domestic security challenge to the Duterte administration. As many domestic and foreign investors in industries common to the province such as Tourism and Mining have found. Commercial justifications for sustainable investments have been rendered close to zero when criminality and political violence have targeted their operations. As much as the acuteness of such threats is prone to fluctuation, with 2017 no exception, the need to understand and forecast potential spikes in destructive activities such as bombings, kidnappings, harassment, extortion or arson by local militant groups is constant.

Bangladesh Garment Industry – Contextualising Geopolitical
Risks Beyond the Vanilla.
With insurers eyeing the escalating ISIS-JMB complex, bankers speculating over sovereign ratings outlooks, and qualifying for the EU’s GSP-Plus status in 2021 still very suspect, the Garment Industry’s ‘risk radar’ needs to attune more to the impact of political risks than it has been to date. Line of sight on how political risks impact economic and financial-business risk is paramount for this export industry, for as Pakistan’s garment industry illustrated not too long ago, global market tolerance for supply chain disruption is gossamer at best.
With eight terrorist incidents in two weeks, the situation inside Bangladesh is tense. ISS Risk believes foreign companies operating in Bangladesh are currently facing unprecedented terrorism risks.
Bangladesh siege continues into 3rd day - ISS Risk current perspectiveRobbie Van Kampen
There has been a siege going on since early hours of Friday morning in the North east of the country just below Assam. Police acting alone initially cordoned off an apartment block in Shibbari area under south Surma sub-dsitrict of Sylhet district, cornering an unknown number of militants. Police believe the latest leader of Neo-JMB - Maynul Islam Musa - is holed up inside the apartment. They came under sustained fire and IED attack almost immediately.

Now well into the second decade of the 21st century the world is witnessing the true extent of
China‟s economic, political, and growing military reach. This reach and integration into the
globalized world has been gradual, incremental, and quiet over the past three decades. In
the shadows, China has accelerated significantly in the past 10 years. What does this mean
for the established global order? This paper is a roadmap looking to join the dots on that
journey.
Existent Terrorism in Indonesia - September, 2016-1Robbie Van Kampen
In contrast to several countries with large Muslim populations within Asia and further afar, the Republic of Indonesia has remained a country relatively free of a religiously motivated
radical militant population. The environmental conditions that prevented such a significant shift towards radicalism – as have also been seen in other Islamic nations – included, but
were not limited to, an authoritarian government and strong Asian ethos and influence upon the practice of religion within the country. Both these pillars are helping in curtailing the
growth of radical or extreme Islamic ideological fundamentalism to date. The challenge facing Indonesia, as it is for many countries across the globe, is squarely one
of the growth of jihadism. Jihadism has experienced an evolution over the past four decades, not unlike many facets of globalisation under the auspices of modernity. Most certainly the strength of governmental authoritarianism has waned over recent decades within Indonesia as it modernises and liberalises; these „forces‟ in turn contribute, to a
degree, to the tempering of interpretations of Islam within Indonesia. Yet many of the changes have also helped to ensure that extremists remain on the margins of both its
religious and social society, they have also „allowed‟ for this sub-culture to germinate at its fringes, to inhabit an existence in the shadow of mainstream society and from there
potentially thrive. This ostracised, largely excluded element – albeit at its own behest – has existed for a long time in Indonesia. It has been carried along by the undercurrent of
radicalism found growing not just within Indonesia but currently across much of Southeast Asia. This phenomenon is what poses the newest and most challenging security threat to the
Indonesian people, their government, their sovereign integrity and the country‟s international investment profile.
At first
glance, this may seem counterintuitive, as there have been no attacks conducted by ISIS
within Myanmar, and very little attention directed towards the country by ISIS. With
significant international attention directed recently towards the plight of the Muslim Rohingya
population in Myanmar, this has begun to change, with several jihadist groups making public
denunciations of Myanmar, as well as encouraging the Rohingya to take up jihad to defend
their communities. At the time this report was being written (August 2016), Myanmar‟s star
stateswoman Aung San Suu Kyi‟s name had just been included on an assassination list sent
to a Malaysian police station by purported ISIS allegiants inside Malaysia.
JMB conduit for ISIS in Bangladesh - september, 2016 (ISS RISK)Robbie Van Kampen
The evidence presented in this report, although focused on the events and developments in
Bangladesh, is indicative of the evolution of terrorism networks globally and attempts to
create a different discourse on how to approach and evaluate the organic nature of these
ever morphing and transcendent groups.
Bangladesh: Sholakia attack, terrorism trajectory continues upwardsRobbie Van Kampen
ISS Risk's initial assessment of the most recent terrorist attack that took place in Bangladesh on the morning of 7 July, when the entire nation was celebrating Eid festival. The violence began at 0845 (local time) when around seven men, armed with guns, homemade bombs and machetes, attacked the outer police perimeter at the open air Eid congregation in Sholakia, 80 km northeast of Dhaka.
dhaka terrorist attack - ISS Risk assessment - july 2016Robbie Van Kampen
The attack and siege of the Holey Artisan Bakery in Dhaka has left the world in no doubt that the militant situation in Bangladesh is worsening and not quite the „domestic problem‟ the government has been claiming or presenting it as. Islamic fundamentalists in Bangladesh are patently internationalising their agenda, with a desire to becoming part of something
much larger than local home grown terrorists. Several combat indicators support that this attack was long in the planning.
North Korea - Analysis of recent nuclear test and satellite launch – why nowRobbie Van Kampen
In this report we support such bold assertions by analysing Kim Jung Un‟s statements over the past few years, but most specially, from the recent joint meeting between the Workers‟ Party of Korea (WPK) and KPA. Additionally, the report provides a snapshot of the economic developments that have already occurred over the past five years, including “shadow markets” and the introduction of a property market, which the government are actively facilitating.
