About FPRI’s Program on National Security The end of the Cold War ushered in neither a period of peace nor prolonged rest for the United States military and other elements of the national security community. The 1990s saw the U.S. engaged in Iraq, Somalia, Haiti, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Kosovo, and numerous other locations. The first decade of the 21st century likewise has witnessed the reemergence of a state of war with the attacks on 9/11 and military responses (in both combat and non-combat roles) globally. While the United States remains engaged against foes such as al-Qa`ida and its affiliated movements, other threats, challengers, and opportunities remain on the horizon.

  • Big 12 Conference Schools Raise Nine-Year NFL Draft Totals to 277 Alumni Through 2003
    Big 12 Conference Schools Raise Nine-Year NFL Draft Totals to 277 Alumni Through 2003 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Apr. 26, 2003 DALLAS—Big 12 Conference teams had 10 of the first 62 selections in the 35th annual NFL “common” draft (67th overall) Saturday and added a total of 13 for the opening day. The first-day tallies in the 2003 NFL draft brought the number Big 12 standouts taken from 1995-03 to 277. Over 90 Big 12 alumni signed free agent contracts after the 2000-02 drafts, and three of the first 13 standouts (six total in the first round) in the 2003 draft were Kansas State CB Terence Newman (fifth draftee), Oklahoma State DE Kevin Williams (ninth) Texas A&M DT Ty Warren (13th). Last year three Big 12 standouts were selected in the top eight choices (four of the initial 21), and the 2000 draft included three alumni from this conference in the first 20. Colorado, Nebraska and Florida State paced all schools nationally in the 1995-97 era with 21 NFL draft choices apiece. Eleven Big 12 schools also had at least one youngster chosen in the eight-round draft during 1998. Over the last six (1998-03) NFL postings, there were 73 Big 12 Conference selections among the Top 100. There were 217 Big 12 schools’ grid representatives on 2002 NFL opening day rosters from all 12 members after 297 standouts from league members in ’02 entered NFL training camps—both all-time highs for the league. Nebraska (35 alumni) was third among all Division I-A schools in 2002 opening day roster men in the highest professional football configuration while Texas A&M (30) was among the Top Six in total NFL alumni last autumn.

  • Seminoles in the Nfl Draft
    137 PRO FOOTBALL HALL OF FAME All-time Florida State gridiron greats Walter Jones and Derrick Brooks are used to making history. The longtime NFL stars added an achievement that will without a doubt move to the top of their accolade-filled biographies when they were inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame inAugust, 2014. Jones and Brooks became the first pair of first-ballot Hall of Famers from the same class who attended the same college in over 40 years. The pair’s journey together started 20 years ago. Just as Brooks was wrapping up his All-America career at Florida State in 1994, Jones was joining the Seminoles out of Holmes Community College (Miss.) for the 1995 season. DERRICK BROOKS Linebacker 1991-94 2014 Pro Football Hall of Fame WALTER JONES Offensive Tackle 1995-96 2014 Pro Football Hall of Fame 138 PRO FOOTBALL HALL OF FAME They never played on the same team at Florida State, but Jones distinctly remembers how excited he was to follow in the footsteps of the star linebacker whom he called the face of the Seminoles’ program. Jones and Brooks were the best at what they did for over a decade in the NFL. Brooks went to 11 Pro Bowls and never missed a game in 14 seasons (all with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers), while Jones became the NFL’s premier left tackle, going to nine Pro Bowls over 12 seasons with the Seattle Seahawks. Both retired in 2008, and, six years later, Jones and Brooks were teammates for the first time as first-ballot Hall of Famers.

  • Humanitarian and Reconstruction Assistance to Afghanistan, 2001
    A Joint Evaluation Evaluation A Joint A Joint Evaluation Afghanistan was a troubled country in 2001. Not only is Afghanistan one of the poorest HUMANITARIAN 2001-05 AFGHANISTAN, ANDTO RECONSTRUCTION ASSISTANCE countries in the world, but protracted armed confl ict since 1978 had forced 6 million HUMANITARIAN AND out of a population of some 25 million people to fl ee to neighbouring countries, caused massive destruction of infrastructure and paved the way for warlords to rule over large RECONSTRUCTION ASSISTANCE parts of the country. The 2001 11 September attack by Al Qaeda placed Afghanistan at the centre of international politics and provoked the US-led ‘Coalition of the Willing’s attack on 7 October on Al Qaeda bases in Afghanistan in collaboration with a loose alliance of TO AFGHANISTAN, 2001-05 Northern Afghan groups and the subsequent overthrow of the Taliban regime. After the international military operation and up to mid-2004 Afghanistan received close FROM DENMARK, IRELAND, THE NETHERLANDS, SWEDEN to Euro 3.2 billion in total of humanitarian and development aid to rebuild the country. Of this, 25 % - Euro 791 billion came from fi ve bilateral donors: the United Kingdom, AND THE UNITED KINGDOM the Netherlands, Sweden, Denmark and Ireland. In 2004 the fi ve donors decided to commission a joint evaluation of their aid programmes 2001-2005. The evaluation was carried out by a consortium led by Chr. Michelsen Institute, Bergen, Norway, contracted by Danida’s Evaluation Department on behalf of the fi ve donors. The donors’ support to Afghanistan was not just another humanitarian operation. It was a multi-dimensional intervention combining the objectives of development co-operation with broad foreign and domestic policy objectives, where the donors – of whom some had taken an active part in ousting the old regime – also aimed at supporting Afghanistan’s new start through putting into place a new and democratically elected government and market economy.

  • Die Jagd Nach Dem Scheich in Den Kiefernwäldern Der Provinz Kunar Vermuten Geheimdienste Aus Aller Welt Osama Bin Laden
    Ausland AFGHANISTAN Die Jagd nach dem Scheich In den Kiefernwäldern der Provinz Kunar vermuten Geheimdienste aus aller Welt Osama Bin Laden. Kaum befahrbare Straßen und die Nähe zu Pakistan machen die Gegend zu einem perfekten Versteck. Der Mann, der im Auftrag Kabuls nach dem Terrorchef fahndet, ist selbst ein Gejagter. Kunar war nicht schlecht. Dem eigentlichen Objekt seiner Neugier wäre er dort um einiges näher gewesen. Nordöstlich der Provinzhauptstadt Jala- labad, im gebirgigen Grenzgebiet der afgha- nischen Provinzen Nangarhar und Kunar, sitzt ein großer korpulenter Mann auf einem Plastikstuhl und wischt sich den Schweiß von der Stirn.
