This book was released on 2010 with total page 11 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chairman Lieberman, Ranking Member Collins, distinguished Members of the Committee, thank you for the opportunity today to discuss the current state of the terrorist threat to the Homeland and the U.S. Government's efforts to address the threat. I am pleased to join Secretary of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano and Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Robert Mueller--two of the National Counterterrorism Center's (NCTC) closest and most critical partners. Nature of the Terrorist Threat During the past year our nation has dealt with the most significant developments in the terrorist threat to the Homeland since 9/11. The three attempted Homeland attacks during the past year from overseas-based groups--including Pakistan-based al-Qa'ida's plan to attack the New York City subway one year ago, its regional affiliate al-Qa'ida in the Arabian Peninsula's (or AQAP's) attempt to blow up an airliner over Detroit last Christmas, and al-Qa'ida's closest ally Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan's (or TTP's) attempt to bomb Times Square in May--in addition to two lone actor attacks conducted by homegrown extremists Carlos Bledsoe and Nidal Hassan, surpassed the number and pace of attempted attacks during any year since 9/11. The range of al-Qa'ida core, affiliated, allied, and inspired US citizens and residents plotting against the Homeland during the past year suggests the threat against the West has become more complex and underscores the challenges of identifying and countering a more diverse array of Homeland plotting.

Book Ten Years After 9 11   Rethinking the Jihadist Threat

Download or read book Ten Years After 9 11 Rethinking the Jihadist Threat written by Arabinda Acharya and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-03-05 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ten years after the 9/11 attacks this book reassesses the effectiveness of the "War on Terror", considers how al-Qaeda and other jihadist movements are faring, explores the impact of wider developments in the Islamic world such as the Arab Spring, and discusses whether all this suggests that a new approach to containing international, especially jihadist, terrorism is needed. Among the book’s many richly argued conclusions are that the "War on Terror" and the invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq have brutalised the United States; that the jihadist threat is not one, but rather a wide range of separate, unconnected struggles; and that al-Qaeda’s ideology contains the seeds of its own destruction, in that although many Muslims are content to see the United States worsted, they do not approve of al-Qaeda’s violence and are not taken in by the jihadists’ empty promises of utopia.
