Terrorism and Counterterrorism: News, INFORMATION & Analysis

A collaboration with focus and emphasis on GLOBAL Terrorism and Counterterrorism.

Secondary focus on anti-American anti-Israel nations who either are funding wars against us by proxy, or are all out preparing for war.

Input by FReepers, mil, alphas, leos, private citizens, groups and organizations.

Please limit graphic intensive posts for those on dial-up.

[Velveeta]

Ping to what I hope to be sort of a sister thread to the phenomenal TM.

In-depth analysis in this ongoing global war on terror.

Connecting the dots.

[Velveeta]

Thanks to Cindy for the focus and collaborating on the details.

We’re approaching the 6th anniversary of the Madrid Train bombings.

Madrid Train Bombings:

In Madrid, Spain on 11 March 2004 ten explosions, packed into 13 rucksacks and detonated by cell phones, occured on four commuter trains at the height of rush hour killing 191 civilians and injuring over 1,800. Police also carried out a controlled demolition of 3 other explosive devices.(snip)

It was the deadliest attack on European civilians since the Lockerbie bombing of 1988. To date more than 70 men have been arrested in the bombing.

Thank you Velveeta.

Anyone that is serious about terrorism, anti- and counter-terrorism should read “Son of Hamas.”

Great suggestion, thanks.

Son of Hamas founder turned on militants

Mosab Yousef, the son of the founder of the Hamas militant group, said he was a spy for Israel because he thinks Hamas “killed people for no reason.”.....

“’Threat from Jamaat-ul Mujahideen Bangladesh”: ICG Report’”
By Animesh Roul

SNIPPET: “I wish to flag the latest Crisis Group report on the threat emanating from the Jamaat-ul Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB) which remains active and dangerous despite continuous government crackdowns. Undoubtedly a well researched report titled “The Threat from Jamaat-ul Mujahideen Bangladesh” (Crisis Group Asia Report No. 187, 1 March 2010), assesses the ongoing danger JMB poses to the state and possibly to the region.”
