Paper Summary:
Terrorists' tactics may have changed throughout history, but their main goal has not; inflicting terror on a society to accomplish an end goal. This paper takes a brief look at four terrorist organizations. The groups discussed are: Lord's Resistance Army (LRA) which operates mainly in Uganda; the Japanese Red Army (JRA); the Black Star group, an anti-American, anti-establishment and anti-capitalist located in Greece and, finally, the Italian Red Brigades-Combatant Communist Party (BR-PCC).
From the Paper:
"For law enforcement to prevail in these instances, knowing the terrorists is a vital tool in fighting them. The main goal of law enforcement is to apprehend, and stop these acts of terrorism from reoccurring before they strike again. One way this can be accomplished is through good intelligence. The best way to break up an organization is by knowing their next move. Information is the key. Analyzing their tactics, their common methods of terror, and who their members are, can lead to a collection of valuable information."
