Subterranean Warfare: a New-Old Challenge
Subterranean Warfare: A New-Old Challenge Yiftah S. Shapir and Gal Perel Subterranean warfare is not new in human history. Tunnels, which have been dug in all periods for various purposes, have usually been the weapon of the weak against the strong and used for concealment. The time required to dig tunnels means that they can be an important tool for local residents against an enemy army unfamiliar with the terrain. Tunnels used for concealment purposes (defensive tunnels) can be distinguished from tunnels used as a route for moving from one place to another. The latter include smuggling tunnels used to smuggle goods past borders (as in the Gaza Strip), escape routes from prisons or detention camps, offensive tunnels to move forces behind enemy lines, and booby-trapped tunnels planted with explosives !"#$%#!#&'%()*+,+-+#.%/)%-)*-+*% .#"%0'%1)&).23 Operation Protective Edge sharpened awareness of the strategic threat posed by subterranean warfare.

Some critics argued that an investigative commission was necessary to search for the roots of the failure and punish those to blame for it. This article will review subterranean warfare before and during Operation Protective Edge, and will assess the strategic effects of this mode of warfare. !"#$%&#'()#*+,-"../0"/0#1/.2/."

The Tunnelling Companies of the British Royal Engineers were engaged in a bitter struggle against German Pioneers that left both sides with heavy casualties. A project to determine the location of one particular act of heroism in that underground war has resulted in the erection of a monument to the Tunnellers at Givenchy-lès-la-Bassée in northern France. Keywords: Tunnelling Companies; Royal Engineers; William Hackett; Tunnellers’ Memorial; mine warfare Introduction The war that raged from 1914 to 1918 is characterised in the popular imagination in terms of trenches, mud and shellfire. -

City of Dundee INTRODUCTION It is unlikely that Judge Vance intended to be prophetic about the Navy when he spoke these words in 1982. Unfortunately, at the Tailhook sympo- sium in October 1991, Navy women were forced to run just such a gauntlet. Navy and Marine Corps aviators used what they called a gauntlet to systematically sexually assault at least 26 women, over half of whom were female Navy officers. -

Achieving Real Police Militarization
ISSUE 20:2 FALL 2015 ARMED NOT MILITARIZED: ACHIEVING REAL POLICE MILITARIZATION Gilbert Rivera* “Police Militarization” is a hot-button topic. The highly publicized events in Ferguson, after the tragic death of Michael Brown, and the grand jury choosing not to press charges against police officer Darren Wilson, nationally showcased a “militarized” police response to public protests. Media coverage showed Ferguson police in armored vehicles, dressed in camouflage and pointing M-16s at unarmed black civilians. These events spurred a nationwide dialogue about the wisdom of providing local law enforcement with military equipment. The term “police militarization” is a pejorative one. However, the U.S. military is one of the country’s most highly respected government institutions. The military prides itself on civilian control, discipline, and accountability achieved through command responsibility and a unique military culture. Police, on the other hand, are highly unionized, create their own rules for accountability, limit the power of police chiefs to discipline officers, show disrespect towards civilian authorities and maintain a culture where police come first. Real police militarization could be achieved by police departments modeling institutional structures, regulations and laws after the U.S. military. I.
