Excerpt: Northwest Airlines Flight 253 was an international passenger flight from Amsterdam Airport Schiphol in Haarlemmermeer, Netherlands, to Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport in Romulus, Michigan, United States. The flight was the target of a failed alleged al-Qaeda bombing attempt on Christmas Day, December 25, 2009, in which a passenger tried to set off plastic explosives sewn to his underwear. There were 290 people on board the plane, which was operated by Northwest Airlines. The suspected bomber in the "Christmas Day bombing attempt" was 23-year-old Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, who had concealed plastic explosives in his underwear but failed to detonate them properly, resulting in flames and popping noises. A Dutch passenger, Jasper Schuringa, tackled and restrained him and put out the fire with the aid of others. Abdulmutallab was then handcuffed while the pilot safely landed the plane. In all, three people were injured: Abdulmutallab, Schuringa, and one other passenger. Upon landing in Detroit, Abdulmutallab was arrested and taken to a hospital for treatment of his burns. On December 28, 2009, Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP) claimed responsibility for the attempted bombing. On January 6, 2010, a federal grand jury indicted Abdulmutallab on six criminal charges, including attempted use of a weapon of mass destruction and attempted murder. Reports indicated that the U.S....

Download or read book Hunting in the Shadows The Pursuit of al Qa ida since 9 11 written by Seth G. Jones and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2012-05-01 with total page 587 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From one of our most trusted counterterrorism experts, a sweeping, insider's account of the decade-long chase for America's deadliest enemy. This landmark history chronicles the dramatic, decade-long war against al Qa’ida and provides a model for understanding the ebb and flow of terrorist activity. Tracing intricately orchestrated terrorist plots and the elaborate, multiyear investigations to disrupt them, Seth G. Jones identifies three distinct “waves” of al Qa’ida violence. As Jonathan Mahler wrote in the New York Times Book Review, “studying these waves and the counterwaves that repelled them can tell us a lot about what works and what doesn’t when it comes to fighting terrorism.” The result is a sweeping, insider’s account of what the war has been and what it might become.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Multidisciplinary research is steadily revolutionizing traditional education, scientific approaches, and activities related to security matters. Therefore, the knowledge generated through multidisciplinary research into the field of application of scientific inquiry could be utilized to protect critical and vital assets of a country. The field of security requires focus on the assessment and resolution of complex systems. Consequently, the dynamics of the intelligence field leads to the necessity of raising awareness and placing priority on improved ideas using scientific inquiry. Intelligence and Law Enforcement in the 21st Century provides personnel directly working in the fields of intelligence and law enforcement with an opportunity to deeply delve into to the challenges, choices, and complications in finding, applying, and presenting the gathered intelligence through various methods and then presenting them through available policies and procedures in the arena of law and order. The book also addresses how law enforcement is critically assessed in the 21st century when implementing the rule of law and order. Covering topics such as counterterrorism, cybersecurity, biological and chemical weapons, and scientific inquiry, this is an essential text for law enforcement, intelligence specialists, analysts, cybersecurity professionals, government officials, students, teachers, professors, practitioners, and researchers in fields that include terrorism and national security.

Download or read book Intelligence and Intelligence Analysis written by Patrick Walsh and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2011-05-31 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book tracks post 9/11 developments in national security and policing intelligence and their relevance to new emerging areas of intelligence practice such as: corrections, biosecurity, private industry and regulatory environments. Developments are explored thematically across three broad sections: applying intelligence understanding structures developing a discipline. Issues explored include: understanding intelligence models; the strategic management challenges of intelligence; intelligence capacity building; and the ethical dimensions of intelligence practice. Using case studies collected from wide-ranging interviews with leaders, managers and intelligence practitioners from a range of practice areas in Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the UK and US, the book indentifies examples of good practice across countries and agencies that may be relevant to other settings. Uniquely bringing together significant theoretical and practical developments in a sample of traditional and emerging areas of intelligence, this book provides readers with a more holistic and inter-disciplinary perspective on the evolving intelligence field across several different practice contexts. Intelligence and Intelligence Analysis will be relevant to a broad audience including intelligence practitioners and managers working across all fields of intelligence (national security, policing, private industry and emerging areas) as well as students taking courses in policing and intelligence analysis.
