Ceded by treaty to France by the northern Italian kingdom of Piedmont-Sardinia, these two mountainous border territories had long been culturally and geo-strategically in the French orbit. Unlike their counterparts in any other province of France, the inhabitants of the two territories were asked to approve or reject the annexation treaty, and thus their incorporation into France, in a plebiscite employing universal male suffrage.

    1 LONE WOLF TERRORISM AND OPEN SOURCE JIHAD: AN EXPLANATION AND ASSESSMENT Claire Wiskind, (Research Assistant, ICT) Summer 2016 ABSTRACT Al Qaeda and Daesh publish English language magazines to appeal to Western supporters and encourage them to join their cause as a fighter or as a lone wolf terrorist. A key feature of Al Qaeda’s magazine, Inspire, is a section titled Open Source Jihad, which provides aspiring jihadists with step-by-step instructions to carry out lone terror attacks in the West. By examining ten attack types that have been published over the past six years, this paper explains Open Source Jihad, presents cases where these types of attacks have been carried out, and assesses the threat presented by the easy access to Open Source Jihad. * The views expressed in this publication are solely those of the author(s) and do not necessarily reflect the views of the International Institute for Counter-Terrorism (ICT). 2 Table of Contents INTRODUCTION ................................................................................................ 3 Lone Wolf Terrorism ......................................................................................... 3 English Language Literature: Dabiq and Inspire .............................................. 7 Open Source Jihad .......................................................................................... 9 OPEN SOURCE JIHAD ATTACK INSTRUCTIONS ..................................... 12 Attacks carried out ..........................................................................................

The attack killed 86 people and injured more than 300.1 Lahouaiej-Bouhlel drove 2 kilometres before stopping the vehicle and discharging a pistol into the crowd. He was eventually shot dead by French national police and reportedly said ‘Allah Akbar’ (God is great) before being killed. A pistol, a dummy grenade and two replica rifles were found inside the truck. Emergency services vehicles work on the scene after a truck, left, drove through Bastille Day revellers in the French resort city of Nice, France, 14 July 2016.

    Article How terrorism is 'made to mean', or why we should study stylistic features of news RIGGS, Ashley Merrill Abstract This study examines instances of metaphor in two British news sources: the left-leaning Guardian and the right-leaning Telegraph. The symbolic value attributed to terrorism is discussed, as well as the role of the journalist which, when she reports on events happening abroad, it is argued, is that of a translator of culture. Findings highlight in particular metaphors of war/violence, plants/growth, water and disease. The news sources use these symbolically powerful metaphors in diverging ways which also reflect their political affiliation. Both sources emphasize violence and negativity in a way that is likely to heighten fear and distrust of certain groups, in particular Muslims. Metaphor warrants further attention from journalists, translators and readers, as well as further research by scholars studying journalism and translation. Reference RIGGS, Ashley Merrill.
