His works to improve the church, led to him becoming a Saint in the year 1610. St. Charles Borromeo was a very devout Catholic who built up the Kingdom of God during…

Flying Killing Machines or Modern Day Superheroes Deploying drones to combat terrorism may be a small step for the United States but a giant step for terrorist organizations. Although drones are Washington’s “weapon of choice”, the current U.S. drone program has not effectively used drones and has allowed for several short-term and “long-term risks” (Byman 32; Cronin 54). Therefore, in an effort to combat terrorism effectively, the United States’ government must implement stricter…

recognise anomalies and irregular changes in the streets in which they patrol? Not only are local law enforcement officers perceived as those who initially respond to terrorist threats or acts, but they are also in the right place to potentially prevent terrorism. Based on mathematics alone local law enforcement officers in Australia are more likely than members of ASIO (Australian Security Intelligence Organisation) to cross paths with terrorists (Kelling & Bratton, 2006, para. 2 & 7).…

The House of Alba is one of the most prominent aristocratic families in Europe with ties to the Spanish monarchy. The Alba heritage is one the family has worked to preserve for over 500 years.

environmental causes. First responders must be prepared to counter and respond to any number of different attacks including; bombings, shootings, explosive devices and cyber-attacks. First responders need to have situational awareness, gather intelligence, plan, train, and have the necessary equipment to be able to counter, and respond to these attacks. Local agencies must understand general planning concepts and have them in place to counter and prevent terrorist attacks, to handle these…

In today’s society terrorism can be defined as a campaign of violence designed to inspire fear, carried out by an organization, and devoted to political ends. Terrorism usually is associated with violence that is directed to civilian targets in a way to reach public publicity to fulfill demands. (Jenkins) Since terrorism has been on the rise throughout history, it is becoming more significant to understand what it is. This is why the U.S. Department of State decided to employ their own…

Terrorism is either domestic or international. Domestic terrorism is when the attack takes place in the venue country where the perpetrators and victims are from; international terrorism is when an attack takes place in “the venue country [which] concerns perpetrators or victims from another country.” (Sandler 2014, 3; 5). International terrorism is said to have started in 1968 when Palestinian terrorist groups carried out…

‘dirty’ nuclear weapons. These weapons are made poorly or made to cause large amounts of destruction in areas of large population such as North America or Europe (Coles). A more ethical approach to the issue of terrorism would be more one on one negotiation between leaders, rather than counter attacks causing a high number of civilian deaths (Banks). The Islamic State better known as ISIS can be considered a group that counterterrorism would not affect. With large numbers of over thirty thousand…
