Connections can be toxic: terrorist organizational factors and the pursuit of CBRN weapons / Asal, Victor H; Ackerman, Gary A; Rethemeyer, R Karl   Journal Article
Ackerman, Gary A Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2012.
Summary/Abstract Despite plentiful scholarship relating to the prospect of terrorists utilizing chemical, biological, radiological, or nuclear (CBRN) weapons, little of this work is both quantitative in nature and global in scope. Leveraging open-source data, this study quantitatively explores factors influencing the terrorist organizational decision to pursue CBRN weapons. The findings suggest that organizations embedded in alliance structures and based in authoritarian countries with relatively strong connections to a globalized world are more likely to seek to develop or acquire CBRN weapons. Contrary to previous qualitative studies, the present study failed to find a significant relationship between CBRN pursuit and religious ideology.

Jihadist insurgency and the prospects for peace and security / Burchill, Richard   Journal Article
Burchill, Richard Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract Modern jihadist insurgency movements pose a threat to global peace and security. Modern jihadist insurgencies are not necessarily posing new operational challenges, instead it is the ideology and belief systems justifying the use of violence that we need to understand better. The ideology fuelling modern jihadist insurgencies, motivating the fighters, acting as a tool for recruiting and support is the key strength these groups have and the one area we have yet to adequately address. We must work to better understand this ideology and how it is utilised otherwise the threat from violent jihadist movements may continue for a very long time.

Menachem begin’s attitude toward the Jewish religion / Shilon, Avi   Article
Shilon, Avi Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract This article argues that Menachem Begin’s religious ideology shaped many of his decisions in both domestic and foreign policy from his days as commander in the pre-State underground through his two terms as Israel’s prime minister. A traditionalist approach toward Judaism, in contrast to secularist streams of Zionist thought that previously prevailed, was central to his actions and won him the political support that propelled him into power.
