These articles, EGYPT curated from news media, academic and international INDIA IRAN sources or submitted by many of you, give our growing IRAQ network a snapshot of this pernicious threat. ISRAEL Every effort is made to ensure that credible articles are NIGERIA chosen, but the intent of THE PTSS DAILY is to deliver PAKISTAN RUSSIA wide coverage. You – the professional – must be the SOMALIA final discriminator on the merit of a particular article and SYRIA its value to your profession.

Thought for the Day | back to top | ““It is now roughly five months since President Barack Obama announced a new direction for U.S. counterterrorism strategy. The president, as usual, gave a good speech. Where he’s weak is on the follow-through, however.”” ~ Daphne Eviatar, Reuters.com Flash Points | back to top | JTIC Flashpoints JTIC 22 October 2013 PHILIPPINES: Nine security force personnel were killed and four others were wounded in two separate landmine and small-arms attacks by suspected New People’s Army (NPA) militants in the Tulunan area of North Cotabato province on 21 October. (Philippine Daily Inquirer) RUSSIAN FEDERATION: Six people were killed and 37 others were wounded when a female suspected Islamist suicide bomber detonated her explosives on a passenger bus travelling in the city of Volgograd in Volgograd Oblast on 21 October. Unverified reports citing security officials claimed the attack was carried out by 30-year-old Naida Asiyalova – an alleged recent convert to Islam and the wife of “a militant leader” based in the North Caucasus republic of Dagestan. (RT/Associated Press) PAKISTAN: At least seven people were killed and 16 others were wounded when the Jaffar Express passenger train struck several improvised explosive devices (IEDs), emplaced by unidentified militants, as it travelled through the Notal area of Naseerabad district in Balochistan province on 21 October. (Dawn/BBC) MOZAMBIQUE: In a statement issued on 21 October, chief spokesman for opposition political party Resistência Nacional Moçambicana (RENAMO) Fernando Mazanga announced that his party had ceased to recognise the 1992 Rome Peace Accords signed with the now ruling party Frente de Libertação de Moçambique (FRELIMO), which had ended the country’s 17-year civil war. The statement came after RENAMO accused FRELIMO government security forces of attacking a jungle base in the Satunjira area of Gorongosa district in Sofala Province earlier that day. Mazanga stated: “Today, the Frelimo-government used troops and heavy artillery to attack the residence of the Renamo president, Afonso Dhlakama, to kill him in cold blood… this… signals the end of the Rome Peace accord.” (Al-Jazeera/BBC/Agência de Informação de Moçambique) SYRIA: The leader of Liwa Fallujah Houran, Yasser al-Aboud (alias Abu Ammar) was killed in heavy clashes with security forces in the town of Tafas in Deraa governorate on 21 October. Aboud had previously defected from the Syrian military on an earlier unspecified date and was the leader of the Syrian Military Council’s (SMC) principal operations room for Deraa governorate. (BBC/Al-Jazeera) LEBANON: Eight people were wounded in clashes – involving the use of small-arms and rocket-propelled grenades (RPGs) – between rival inhabitants of the predominantly Sunni Muslim Bab al-Tabbaneh district and members of the predominantly Alawite Shia Muslim Jabal Mohsen district of the city of Tripoli in North Governorate late on 21 October. Earlier that day, unidentified militants in neighbouring Syria launched four artillery rockets into the town of Hermel in Beqaa Governorate, one of which struck an Army barracks, but inflicted no casualties. (The Daily Star) UNITED KINGDOM: In a court hearing in the capital London on 21 October, 25-year-old Ukrainian student, Pavlo Lapshyn, pleaded guilty to killing 82-year-old Mohammed Saleem in the Small Heath area of the city of Birmingham on 29 April and to plotting to cause explosions near mosques in the towns of Walsall, Tipton, and Woverhampton in June and July. While Lapshyn told police after his arrest in Tipton on 12 July that he “would like to increase racial conflict,” he also admitted in court that his actions had been motivated by racial hatred. (BBC/Reuters) AFGHANISTAN: The suspected Taliban chief in the Manogi district of Kunar province, identified as Gul Marjan, was killed along with three other suspected militants in a missile strike by an alleged United States unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) that targeted him in the Manogi district on 21 October.

Global Strategic Overview | back to top | Suicide Bomber Strikes Russian Bus, Killing 6 Associated Press 22 October 2013 A female suicide bomber blew herself up on a city bus in southern Russia on Monday, killing six people and injuring about 30, officials said. The attack in Volgograd added to security fears ahead of the Winter Olympics in Sochi. The suspected bomber was from the North Caucasus, a region in southern Russia where an Islamic insurgency has been simmering for more than a decade following two separatist wars in Chechnya. A local official said the suspected attacker was married to an Islamic militant. Volgograd lies 650 kilometres (400 miles) to the northeast of the North Caucasus, while Sochi sits to the west along the Black Sea… Read more at: http://www.thedailystar.net/beta2/news/suicide-bomber-strikes-russian-bus-killing-6/ Bil'in: IDF Kills Terrorist Who Fired from Cave Arutz Sheva By Gil Ronen 22 October 2013 The terrorist had holed up inside a cave and fired at special IDF and Shin Bet forces who carried out an arrest operation at Bil'in.

Garza Bella B. Jordan Cultural Identity and the People of the North Caucasus by Brandon Alan Pressley B.A. Thesis Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of The University of Texas at Austin in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts The University of Texas at Austin May, 2011 Abstract Cultural Identity and the People of the North Caucasus Brandon Alan Pressley, M.A. The University of Texas at Austin, 2011 Supervisor: Thomas J. Garza During Soviet Russia, there was an active policy of forced assimilation of minorities into one cultural identity: Russian. This loss of cultural identity came in many forms of resettlement, deportation, discriminatory language policies and economic practices. All of these policies and actions led to large groups of people from the North Caucasus giving up their unique cultural identity and adopting the Russian cultural identity. Many of the policies and actions of the Soviet Union reflected the actions of the United States during the forced assimilation process of the Native Americans. Throughout this process of losing their cultural identity, the people of the North Caucasus could have maintained their unique cultural identity at home or in the local school system, but chose not to for various reasons. This choice to shed their own cultural identity and adopt the Russian identity has had detrimental effect s on the region and some cultures are on the brink of extinction.

  • Bogue, Janet L

BOGUE Interviewed by: Charles Stuart Kennedy Initial interview date: May 18, 2007 Copyright 2015 ASDT Q: Today is May 18, 2007. This is Tape 1, Side 1, with Janet Lynn Bogue. Janet, let’s start at the beginning. When and where were you born? BOGUE: I was born in 1955 in Tacoma, Washington, the State of Washington not the City of Washington. Q: I knew it was going to happen. I have somebody who was born the year I entered the Foreign Service. BOGUE: My last job in the Foreign Service was handling the new entries. I started to see people who weren’t quite born when I came into the Foreign Service, but it was certainly close. Q: Let’s start on your father’s side, the Bogue family. Tell me where they came from and what you know about them. BOGUE: I don’t know a lot about them. Some of that family history is a little bit murky. My best understanding is that they were French Protestants who initially settled in the Carolinas. There is an area of North Carolina called Bogue Bay, Bogue Sound, Bogue Inlet. There is a town of Bogue. Apparently, they originally settled in that area and then spread out. My father’s father came from Illinois; they were farmers in Illinois. They had been farmers in Illinois and that area for some generations, because some of his ancestors, I think my grandfather’s grandfather, had fought in the Civil War on the Union side and had come from Illinois and Michigan.

Kadettikurssi Jääkäriopintosuunta Tekijä Kadetti Lasse Kuoppala Työn nimi Venäjän näkemys terrorismin leviämisestä Dagestaniin ja Ingušetiaan Oppiaine, johon työ liittyy Säilytyspaikka Strategia Kurssikirjasto (MPKK) Aika Huhtikuu 2009 Tekstisivuja 40 Liitesivuja 0 TIIVISTELMÄ Vuodesta 2004 eteenpäin terrorismi on levinnyt Dagestanin ja Ingušetian alueille. Se ei ilmene yleensä mediassa terrorismille tyypillisenä kuvatulla tavalla siviiliväestöön kohdistettuna suunnattomana väkivaltana. Sen sijaan puhutaan niin kutsuttuja kovia kohteita vastaan kohdistuvasta, sissisotaa muistuttavasta taistelusta Venäjän turvallisuusorganisaatioita vastaan. Toisena selkeänä kohteena ovat alueiden paikallishallintojen infrastruktuuri ja henkilöstö. Vastarinnan katsotaan nykyään kattavan koko Pohjois-Kaukasian alueen. Dagestan ja Ingušetia ovat kuitenkin niin kutsutun konfliktin syntypisteessä ja tilannekehitykseltään huonoimmassa tilassa, jolloin niiden syvempi tutkimus osana Pohjois-Kaukasian kokonaisuutta on tarpeellista ja auttaa ymmärtämään nykyistä trendiä terrorismin viitekehyksessä. Länsimaalaisen tutkimuskirjallisuuden ja Venäjän näkemyksen välillä sekä muutoksesta terroristien taktiikoista että taustalla vaikuttavista syistä, on havaittavissa huomattavia eroja. Molempia näkemyksiä on käytettävä niin Dagestanin ja Ingušetian
