Terrorism, Tactics, and Force Multipliers

I used to work as a criminal justice adjunct instructor for a a private college here in Nashville. I ended up teaching terrorism much of the time, and while going through my computer I found several PowerPoint files and lesson plans I felt would be useful to some of the readers of this site.

Now this post comes from the terrorism course, and I have cut it down to discuss force multipliers, tactics of terrorists, and an introduction to WMD concepts.

It is rather long – coming in at 30 minutes, but I saved you from any cutesy intro music, and all the nice to know illustrative stuff I would have talked about in a normal 3 hour course.

This is a quick introduction to some involved concepts, and if you find it interesting let me know, as I would like to go into greater detail, but don’t want to bore anyone.

This video discusses force multipliers terrorists use to become more effective so that smaller numbers can have bigger impact.

If you understand the methods terrorists use then you can fight them.  If you have no idea of the enemy or how they operate you will never have a chance at stopping them
