  • Surprise, Intelligence Failure, and Mass Casualty Terrorism
    SURPRISE, INTELLIGENCE FAILURE, AND MASS CASUALTY TERRORISM by Thomas E. Copeland B.A. Political Science, Geneva College, 1991 M.P.I.A., University of Pittsburgh, 1992 Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of The Graduate School of Public and International Affairs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Pittsburgh 2006 UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH FACULTY OF ARTS AND SCIENCES This dissertation was presented by Thomas E. Copeland It was defended on April 12, 2006 and approved by Davis Bobrow, Ph.D. Donald Goldstein, Ph.D. Dennis Gormley Phil Williams, Ph.D. Dissertation Director ii © 2006 Thomas E. Copeland iii SURPRISE, INTELLIGENCE FAILURE, AND MASS CASUALTY TERRORISM Thomas E. Copeland, PhD University of Pittsburgh, 2006 This study aims to evaluate whether surprise and intelligence failure leading to mass casualty terrorism are inevitable. It explores the extent to which four factors – failures of public policy leadership, analytical challenges, organizational obstacles, and the inherent problems of warning information – contribute to intelligence failure. This study applies existing theories of surprise and intelligence failure to case studies of five mass casualty terrorism incidents: World Trade Center 1993; Oklahoma City 1995; Khobar Towers 1996; East African Embassies 1998; and September 11, 2001. A structured, focused comparison of the cases is made using a set of thirteen probing questions based on the factors above. The study concludes that while all four factors were influential, failures of public policy leadership contributed directly to surprise. Psychological bias and poor threat assessments prohibited policy makers from anticipating or preventing attacks. Policy makers mistakenly continued to use a law enforcement approach to handling terrorism, and failed to provide adequate funding, guidance, and oversight of the intelligence community.

  • Stoicism at War: from Epictetus and Marcus Aurelius to James Stockdale
    Konrad Banicki Jagiellonian University, Cracow, Poland Institute of Applied Psychology STOICISM AT WAR: FROM EPICTETUS AND MARCUS AURELIUS TO JAMES STOCKDALE Abstract The chapter is devoted to the analysis of ancient Stoic philosophy as a source of resil- ience for soldiers. Firstly, some historical cases are investigated, from a Roman Emperor Marcus Aurelius to more recent instances from Vietnam and Iraq. Secondly, in turn, the Epictetus’ distinction between the controllable and the uncontrollable is introduced with the focus on the prescription to assign value only to the former as the Stoic source of resilience. Finally, some further questions are briefly addressed including the ones concerning the sources of the Stoicism’s appeal to the soldiers, its more particular ap- plications as well as the potential drawbacks of the Stoic resilience. Key words: resilience, stoicism, soldiers, Marcus Aurelius, James Stockdale Stoicyzm na wojnie. Od Epikteta i Marka Aureliusza do Jamesa Stockdale’a Streszczenie Rozdział poświęcony jest analizie starożytnej filozofii stoickiej jako źródła sprężysto- ści psychicznej (resilience) dla żołnierzy. Po przedstawieniu historycznych przykładów żołnierskich odwołań do stoicyzmu, od rzymskiego cesarza Marka Aureliusza do uczest- ników wojen w Wietnamie i Iraku, wprowadzona zostaje stoicka koncepcja Epikteta. W szczególności sformułowane przez niego rozróżnienie na to, co podlega naszej kon- troli, oraz to, co jej nie podlega, a także nacisk na przypisywanie wartości jedynie temu pierwszemu zostają przedstawione

  • 9-11 and Terrorist Travel- Full
    AND TERRORIST TRAVEL Staff Report of the National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States 9/11 AND TERRORIST TRAVEL Staff Report of the National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States By Thomas R. Eldridge Susan Ginsburg Walter T. Hempel II Janice L. Kephart Kelly Moore and Joanne M. Accolla, Staff Assistant Alice Falk, Editor Note from the Executive Director The Commission staff organized its work around specialized studies, or monographs, prepared by each of the teams. We used some of the evolving draft material for these studies in preparing the seventeen staff statements delivered in conjunction with the Commission’s 2004 public hearings. We used more of this material in preparing draft sections of the Commission’s final report. Some of the specialized staff work, while not appropriate for inclusion in the report, nonetheless offered substantial information or analysis that was not well represented in the Commission’s report. In a few cases this supplemental work could be prepared to a publishable standard, either in an unclassified or classified form, before the Commission expired. This study is on immigration, border security and terrorist travel issues. It was prepared principally by Thomas Eldridge, Susan Ginsburg, Walter T. Hempel II, Janice Kephart, and Kelly Moore, with assistance from Joanne Accolla, and editing assistance from Alice Falk. As in all staff studies, they often relied on work done by their colleagues. This is a study by Commission staff. While the Commissioners have been briefed on the work and have had the opportunity to review earlier drafts of some of this work, they have not approved this text and it does not necessarily reflect their views.

  • Annual Report of the Town of Raymond, New Hampshire
    The Raymond Community Stewardship Committee Caretakers & Facilitators Of The Vision For The Future Established in July, 1992 by the Board of Selectmen as a permanent advisory committee of the Town of Raymond, our fifteen-member group of volunteers accepted a formidable challenge with enthusiasm. We are made up of eleven members at-large, plus one representative each from the Board of Selectmen, the Planning Board, the Conservation Commission, and the Raymond Industrial Development Corporation. As charged by the Selectmen, we are "to provide an orderly forum to discuss and consider matters that affect the town's public image, historic heritage, community spirit and public facilities planning." In addition, we are "to identify ways the town can leverage its assets to attract desirable business and industry in order to broaden its tax base." Formation of the committee grew out of Raymond's participation in the 1991 Governor's Commission on the 21st Century. Raymond was one of two communities chosen by the Office of State Planning to help the Commission develop a process and set of planning tools that could be used by communities state-wide, and that would enable them to direct the location, character and timing of their future development in order to 1.) conserve important natural resources, 2.) promote economic growth, and 3.) maintain the "rural" atmosphere that makes New Hampshire living so desirable. In January of '92 a series of intensely productive meetings took place between Raymond citizens and a Task Force of State Planning Officials and private-sector volunteers with expertise in banking, real estate, architecture, landscaping, conservation, the environment and historic preservation.
