Recommended: Methodology of terrorism

Not all extremists move from words to deeds. Many people can adhere to extremist ideas. Intelligence and law enforcement agencies need to consider with one person both the intent and the ability to effectively move from parole to action or to mobilize against violence. The signs of mobilization to violence help to distinguish "speaker" from"makers". They took a wide range of activities and behaviors. Essentially, it is a presage of travel arrangements, changes in the training or fitness program, financial readiness, evidence of deception or concealment, and final preparations or movements related to ordering business. The mobilization process consists of concrete and observable measures. These measures include building capacity, overcoming financial barriers, and taking action to …show more content…

other other. It is a noticeable change in the rights of every person who is in the habit of adopting in his or her everyday life.
The two processes : radicalization and mobilization to violence are not linear. In other words, the process of radicalization or mobilization of a person can begin, slow down, accelerate, end depending on a multitude of factors. A person who mobilizes for violence may also want to hide his activities from the authorities or members of his entourage. In this case, hints of concealment and deception can be detected. For example, a person could use software to encrypt his communications, invent a story to justify his departure from a Country X to a country. You create a dual identity on social media. Indicators of mobilization to violence should be used in association with others and depending on the context. They help to clarify the intent and ability of an

  • Open Adoption: The Best Interest of the Child

    1490 Words  | 3 Pages

    Adoption is in place to balance, to nurture and create a structural environment of safety in which the child can thrive and develop into a productive individual contributing to society. Also, it allows older children to abandon old maladaptive behaviors and make their first steps toward the construction of new behaviors influenced by their new environment. In years past, parents who adopted a child as an infant often debated whether to tell him or her about the adoption. Many children grew up not knowing they were adopted, and the birth mother’s identity was kept secret from those who did know (Ashford, LeCroy and Lortie 249). This paper provides facts on widely acceptance option of open adoption rather than the traditional practice of closed adoption. Adoption separates real biological family members, removing the adopter heritage whether the adoption is open or closed. Open adoption can lead to problems, but there are proven facts that open adoption is the best option for all parties working together in the best interest of the children.

  • Biology of Violence Examined

    363 Words  | 1 Pages

    Robert Wright considers the element of the biology of violence as a component of poverty and violence. To clarify his views he makes the relationship between gangs and political coalitions. He relates the motives of gangs to those in politics by depicting gangs as a group of people with concurring views who desire to serve each others interests suitably. Although the degree of destruction between gang violence and war or terrorism differs, it is Wright’s belief that the underlying principle that leads to each is the same. To understand this statement’s take the example of a poverty stricken mother or father. If the only way that they would be able to provide food or shelter was through acts of violence, it would be safe to assume that they would take whatever course of action necessary. Acts of terrorism (separate from the events of Sept 11 and onwards) are sometimes the result of a political statement or threat being made in an attempt to have a member of their group released when all else has failed. Environment also plays a role as in a sad but true way that violence is more “accepted”, in run-down, poorer areas.

  • Personality Characteristics Of A Terrorist

    725 Words  | 2 Pages

    More and more in the world today, circumstances have brought about changes in how members have used radical protesting. One way used to protest a situation is through terrorism, and the people who exercise violence in the pursuit of what they hold to be just causes are alternately known as terrorists. This movement, although viewed as barbaric, requires a person to view the needs and goals of a particular cause to be greater than that of the well being of others. There are certain characteristic traits that can be found in the majority of terrorism, which can identify a profile of a terrorist’s mind. A terrorist is not just an insane person, but also possibly a person that has been forced either by personal decision or by situations beyond control to choose an “insane” method to achieve an unachievable goal.

  • Countless Kinds in Need of a Family

    1008 Words  | 3 Pages

    Adoption is the transferal of parental rights from one person to another. “When a mother or father cannot provide a family for their child, they may give up their rights as parents to other people through adoption,” is a good example for why some people give up their child for adoption (Glotzbach 10). In birth, the parents are there the day the child is born and watch them grow up, but in adoption, the adoptive parents cannot normally be in the room with the parents as the child is being born. This is because sometimes the adoptive parents do not choose to adopt a child that has not been born yet, and instead adopt one that has. Whether or not the child is born or unborn, “All parties concerned recognize that there is a difference between becoming a member of a family through adoption and becoming one through birth,” (Pilgrim). Sooner or later, the child finds out that they are adopted. A common misunderstanding is adoption and foster parenting being the same thing. “Adoption is different from foster parenting,” is a true statement because foster parenting involves a family housing a child until that child can find a permanent home (Pilgrim). Adoption on the other hand, is where a family goes t...

  • Lone Actor Terrorism Theory

    524 Words  | 2 Pages

    Despite numerous high-profile terrorist attacks that have been committed by individuals operating independently from terrorist groups, little attention has been given to explaining how these lone actor terrorists can emotionally perform violent acts against others. Recent studies of violence suggest that micro-level situational factors are essential in emotionally enabling violent action. Perhaps the most critical factor is enabling violence is situational emotional dominance. This dominance is most often established through several group dynamics that include an entrainment with the physical and emotional states of confederates, mutual monitoring (a form of peer pressure), as well as the role of emotionally supportive observers. Indeed, Collins highlights the

  • Sarah Kershaw's The Staircase To Terrorism

    873 Words  | 2 Pages

    Trying to decipher the mentality of terrorism and the fledgling terrorists to be is certainly an intriguing topic. There are too many unknowns in the human psyche to truly break down what really contributes to radicalization. The fundamental factors that lead individuals towards terrorist organizations, religious cults and violent and destructive riots is the needs of the weak willed to be a part of something larger than themselves. Ignorance of others customs, courtesies and cultural practices coupled with religion tends to be the driving factors, many distort to influence hate in future radicals. Sarah Kershaw discusses extremist beliefs justifying violence with a higher moral condition set by their religion, ethnicity and or national political struggles (2010). Through that reasoning people are able to justify violence as a means of influence or control over a given situation or purpose. To me this breaks down as the criminally culpable ignorance of the many lead by the charismatic and deceitful few.

  • False Mindset Of Equality In Ted Kaczynski's

    925 Words  | 2 Pages

    But what specifically leads one to such radical ideas, and eventually radical actions? In Ted Kaczynski's case he was deceived in participating in subjecting himself to a series of purposely brutalizing psychological experiments, that lead him to a hating of technology, so a case can be made that he acted out of brainwashing (Chase). However, Kaczynski openly decided to stop teaching at Berkeley and become a revolutionary. In the case of Alpert, she had been convinced that society was only misogynistic women haters. She was not brainwashed, she came across radicalism on her own, she came to the “realization”. The fact of the matter is that either individual was ultimately willing to commit audacious acts. It does not matter whether or not one of them was brainwashed, but the fact they were willing to do such a

  • The Modern Militia Movement

    Truly understanding the motivation and rationale behind action is often subjective. Biases are evident within society and can skew perceptions of behaviour. However, the foundation for action can be understood by looking at what role societal or cultural pressures have become placed upon individuals. Furthuremore, Militia movements that have evolved into modern socetiy must be understood from a strucutral, soiteal vantage point instaed of an individual pathology ( 223). Traditional theories for studying criminals focus on the brain pathology or childhood trauma which shaped an individual into a degranged killer. However, strucural changes within society have the ability to push anyone over the edge. Economic and deccelopmental changes that

  • Violence In America Research Paper

    246 Words  | 1 Pages

    In my opinion, it's a very difficult question and I can see from both sides. On one hand, I think that in a case like Nazis wanting to march the streets of America, that insinuates violence and is threatening Jewish people everywhere. It’s wrong, not just because Nazis are horrible people, but because it can cause fear and panic to Jewish people. 11 million people died in the Holocaust and letting Nazis, who supported this, march is not free speech. Its hateful and causes violence.

    “Adopting one child won 't change the world: but for that child, the world will change.” (Unknown)(Buzzle.com). Adoption can take place in multiple shapes, forms, and fashions. You can adopt from a local adoption agency, or adopt from an orphanage half way around the world. You can adopt a child whose parents are no longer living, or you could adopt from a young mother who is not ready to raise a child. You can adopt one child who has touched your heart from an orphanage in Uganda, or a set of triplets being moved around from house to house in foster care.
