  • Building Counter-Terrorism Capacity Across Borders: Lessons from the Defeat of “Revolutionary Organization November 17Th”
    Published by: Cranfield Security Sector Management Team Cranfield University Shrivenham, UK ISSN 1740-2425 Volume 6 Number 2 – July 2008 Building Counter-Terrorism Capacity Across Borders: Lessons from the Defeat of “Revolutionary Organization November 17th” Christos Floros & Bruce Newsome Abstract Since 2001, governments have made more resources available for building counter-terrorist capacity abroad, but performance has not matched the rhetoric. Lessons from the defeat of the November 17th terrorist organization in Greece suggest that political or material commitments are necessary but insufficient conditions of international counter-terrorist capacity-building. More important, but less acknowledged, are the organizational conditions. Governments should encourage more cooperative, less self-reliant cultures in their agencies, develop multi-laterally beneficial objectives, and prohibit activities unauthorised by the host country. Some of the lessons, such as adherence to the same rules of law by all stakeholders, confirm norms in security sector reform. Others, such as increased security sector powers, run counter to those norms. http://www.jofssm.org/issues/jofssm_0602_Floros&Newsome.doc Christos Floros & Bruce Newsome/ Building Counter-Terrorism Capacity Across Borders: Lessons from the Defeat of “Revolutionary Organization November 17th” Introduction Counter-terrorist capacity is an increasingly important part of the security sector. Governments have made more resources available for building counter-terrorist capacity abroad since the Jihadist attacks on the United States of 11 September 2001 (9/11), but performance has not matched the rhetoric. Why does international counter-terrorist capacity-building succeed or fail? Few terrorist organizations are ever unambiguously defeated. The “Revolutionary Organisation November 17” (henceforth 17N) is one of the few.

On behalf of the group, I am writing to you as a great friend of Greece to ask that you enact a ban on donkey rides. When people around the world think of Greece, they envision the beautiful island of Santorini. Unfortunately, I have recently come across some information that casts a shadow over its charm. On several occasions, PETA has documented the suffering endured by donkeys and mules when they’re forced to carry tourists and heavy loads up the more than 500 steps to Firá. These animal rides are considered “traditional” – but it’s a shameful tradition. As an actor, I need to have empathy in order to inhabit various characters, and it hurts me very much to see the animals suffer like this. I love donkeys and mules, and I know the living conditions they require. The reality on the island is a sad one: the animals are compelled to make the laborious journey several times a day and are rarely allowed to take breaks, if at all. Often, they don’t even have access to drinking water.
