  • Criminalizing Insurgents: the United States and Western Europe Response to Terrorism, 1968-1984
    CRIMINALIZING INSURGENTS: THE UNITED STATES AND WESTERN EUROPE RESPONSE TO TERRORISM, 1968-1984 A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY by Silke Victoria Zoller Diploma Date August 2018 Examining Committee Members: Dr. Richard H. Immerman, Advisory Chair, History Dr. Petra Goedde, History Dr. Orfeo Fioretos, Political Science Dr. David Farber, University of Kansas Dr. Paul T. Chamberlin, External Member, Columbia University ii © Copyright 2018 by Silke Zoller ________________ All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT The United States, Germany, and other Western industrialized countries began seeking multilateral anti-terrorism agreements in the 1970s. In that decade, transnationally operating terroristic actors tapped into the anti-imperialist, anti-colonial global discourse of the 1960s to justify themselves as national liberation fighters. This dissertation is a case study of Western state officials who interacted with one another and with recently independent states in response to the activity of such ostensible insurgents. The dissertation reveals how Western officials worked to define and deploy the terrorism label against these non-state actors. U.S., German, and other Western officials generated international conventions that treated terrorists as ordinary criminals and ignored their political motivations. The resulting multilateral agreements stipulated that terrorism was an illegal and criminal act. These solutions undermined national liberation actors’ claims to protected status as wartime combatants. This dissertation clarifies some of the mechanisms which permitted Western states to shape the norms about who is or is not a terrorist. However, Western efforts to define and regulate terrorism also led to the institutionalization of terrorism as a global security threat without providing long-term solutions.

  • Terrorism Against Democracy
    Terrorism Against Democracy By M. Merrick Yamamoto CISSM Working Paper January 2015 Center for International and Security Studies at Maryland 4113 Van Munching Hall, School of Public Policy University of Maryland College Park, MD 20742 (301) 405-7601 Terrorism Against Democracy Based in Part on Stansfield Turner’s University of Maryland Course, “Terrorism & Democracy” By M. Merrick Yamamoto © 2015 by M. Merrick Yamamoto Preface & Acknowledgements This monograph approaches the problem of terrorism from the perspective of the process of a terrorist attack; that is, how terrorism is intended to “operate.” Comprehension of the intended process of the terrorist attack can help defeat terrorists, reduce terrorism, and avoid the damage that can result from poor responses to attacks. Part I of the monograph analyzes terrorism. Chapter 1 analyzes what terrorism is, and what kinds of acts are and are not terrorism. Chapter 2 analyzes the ways that terrorism is intended to operate on third-parties—the governments, organizations, individuals, and groups from which terrorists seek to elicit responses. Chapter 3 analyzes the causes of terrorism, and the threats that terrorism poses. Part II addresses what to do about terrorism—how to prevent terrorism, respond effectively to attacks, and defeat terrorists. Analysis of the steps of the terrorist attack shows that terrorism can be prevented and countered at each step. The monograph then addresses a general counterterrorism strategy. The monograph uses the Turner-Yamamoto Terrorism Model as a guide to comprehending terrorism and how to combat it. The model illustrates the steps of the terrorist attack, and shows how terrorism is intended to operate.

  • Skyjackers, Jackals and Soldiers: British Planning for International Terrorist Incidents During the 1970S
    Skyjackers, jackals and soldiers: British planning for international terrorist incidents during the 1970s GERAINT HUGHES* On 5 January 1974 a column of 150 British Army troops, supported by armoured vehicles, arrived at Heathrow airport in full battle order, and over the course of the following two weeks they patrolled its runways and the perimeter. These soldiers had been ordered in by Edward Heath’s government in response to intel- ligence reports that the Palestinian fedayeen intended to use a portable anti-aircraft missile to shoot down a passenger jet, and the British authorities had already devised contingency plans (codenamed Operation Marmion) to deploy the army in order to deter a terrorist attack at the airport.1 Marmion was implemented on three further occasions in 1974—in June, July and September—and in each case the troop presence at Heathrow attracted considerable parliamentary and press comment.2 Some critics argued that in each case the British government was over- reacting to the threat at hand, and that the military patrols at Heathrow were essentially intended as a public relations exercise.3 However, Operation Marmion also had an effect which ministers and civil servants had not intended, as it fed contemporary fears that the British Army and right-wing extremists within the establishment and security services were preparing for a coup.4 Much of the discussion about responses to terrorism in Britain focuses on the conflict in Northern Ireland (1969–98),5 and there is very little scholarly analysis of how the British state responded to the threat of international terrorism from the early 1970s onwards.6 This is partly attributable to the 30-year rule regulating the * The analysis, opinions and conclusions expressed or implied here are those of the author and do not necessar- ily represent the views of the Joint Services Command and Staff College, the Defence Academy, the MoD or any other UK government agency.

It is okayBy SteinerReceived the book yesterday, and thought I would give it a read; there is a fair amount of information on the background of the terrorists, and their organizations, but not that much in the book on GSG-9 and the actual storming of Flight LH 181. The volume seemed a bit more political than tactical. The book was purchased as not much information on GSG-9 exits on this side of the water. There are good photos however.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Five StarsBy William D. NewsomArrived on time and as advertised.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Five StarsBy J SecretoWill written and researched. In 1977, Lufthansa Flight 181 was hijacked by terrorists and flown to Mogadishu, Somalia. Once landed, members of the German special missions group, GSG-9, stormed the plane, killing three of the terrorists and wounding the fourth, while successfully avoiding any major harm to the hostages.
