Technologies of Terror
Ground Zero - [ Go

The
New Terrorists - Henning Ritter @ F.A.Z.
One of the first results of the terrorist attacks
on New York and the Pentagon was U.S. President George W. Bush's
agreement with his Russian colleague Vladimir Putin that in Chechnya,
Russia has not committed the human rights violations of which the
West has been accusing it for years. Suddenly, the American president
saw the war in Chechnya the same way the Russian government has
seen it all along: a war against terrorism. This new agreement between
the United States and Russia was the first major long-term consequence
of the terrorist attack. Little more is known today about the ringleaders
of the attack than when Bush and Putin came to their understanding.
Wars
of Wide-area Networks - Ronald J. Deibert @ infopeace.org/911
Living collectively in the society of the
spectacle left little other reference for eyewitnesses than those
found in Imax Americanna. Bruce Willis was momentarily conjoined
with Bin Laden on google hits, his vacant, troubled gaze and shaved
head an odd omission from an otherwise Bruckheimerian day for most
of the viewers.
Notes
on 11 September 2001 - Paul Chilton @ infopeace.org/911
...those in the "West" have no
clear grasp they are confident of. This is dangerous; it is analogous
to the incomprehension of the Soviet Union at the end of WWII, but
more hazardous. Kennan, the State Department, the national Security
Council, Rand Corporation and others gave us the communist threat,
containment and deterrence. These concepts cannot now be crudely
re-applied mutatis mutandis in the new world situation.
Networks
of Terror - John Leonard @ Salon
After a couple of days of doing what they do
best, which is grief therapy, the television networks and cable
channels reverted to what they do worst, which is to represent the
normal respiration of democratic intelligence. Never mind the apocalyptic
branding every producer of continuing coverage felt he had to inflict
over, under and around the multiple reruns, the endless nightmare
feedback loop of jumbo jet, firebomb and towers falling down. Soon
enough, "America Under Dastardly Attack" would be succeeded
by "The Empire Strikes Back." Nothing less can be expected
of a commercial culture with a logo, a patent, a copyright or a
trademark on everything from pro athletes and childhood fairy tales
to the human genome.
Undressed
by Rapiscan Secure 1000 - Jill Rachel Jacobs @ Alternet
The scanning machine that has been under development
and consideration since the '90s that could revolutionize airport
security is better known as "The Rapiscan Secure 1000,"
and is currently being tested at Florida's Orlando International
Airport. But according to Barry Steinhardt, ACLU associate director,
"This body-scan technology is nothing more than an electronic
strip search. This technology brings an extraordinary potential
for abuse."
Asymmetry
Is Not Destiny - Karl Meyer @ World
Policy Journal
"Military asymmetry" has become the fashionable cliché
among pundits to characterize a
still-unnamed war pitting a high-tech superpower against bearded
holy warriors and cavedwelling
terrorists. Examined more closely, however, all other aspects of
the conflict-psychological,
cultural, territorial, and economic-are also asymmetrical. Consider
for example
what one might call the "psycho-geographical-historical asymmetry"
between the United
States and its unexpected new wartime ally, Russia. It is an anomalous
coupling, fraught
with difficulties yet alive with promise, including the prospect
of working with Moscow to
lessen the oil power of the Persian Gulf sheikdoms.
The
Rise of Complex Terrorism - Thomas Homer-Dixon @ Foreign
Policy
Modern societies face a cruel paradox: Fast-paced
technological and economic innovations may deliver unrivalled prosperity,
but they also render rich nations vulnerable to crippling, unanticipated
attacks. By relying on intricate networks and concentrating vital
assets in small geographic clusters, advanced Western nations only
amplify the destructive power of terrorists -- and the psychological
and financial damage they can inflict.
Fourth
Generation Warfare @ Defense
and National Interest
Roughly speaking, "fourth generation
warfare" includes all forms of conflict where the other side
refuses to stand up and fight fair. What distinguishes 4GW from
earlier generations is that typically at least one side is something
other than a military force organized and operating under the control
of a national government, and one that often transcends national
boundaries. The attacks on the Pentagon and World Trade Center are
horrific examples of operations as part of a campaign conducted
according to fourth generation principles. They dispelled forever
the notion that 4GW is just "terrorism" or something that
happens only in poverty-stricken Third World countries. But it is
a strange form of warfare, one where, for example, military force
plays a much smaller (though still critical) role than in earlier
generations, often supporting initiatives that are more political,
diplomatic, and economic.

Networks
and Netwars: The Future of Terror, Crime, and Militancy
John Arquilla and David Ronfeldt
The information revolution is altering the nature
of conflict across the spectrum. We call attention to two developments
in particular. First, this revolution is favoring and strengthening
network forms of organization, often giving them an advantage over
hierarchical forms.
The
Selling of 9-11 - Chris Fitzpatrick @ PopMatters
HBO, Showtime, and FX have all announced
plans to produce TV movies about the events, but on March 10th,
CBS took the lead with a commercial-free special, 9/11. An important
documentary to some and exploitative reality programming to others,
the nearly uninterrupted two-hour broadcast of footage shot inside
the World Trade Center provided an insider's view of the results
of the terrorist attacks. Gaining an estimated third of the American
viewing population, 9/11 was profitable, but at the expense of many
of the victims' families who felt the timing was inappropriate.
Although they publicly voiced their concern, it did not change the
network's decision to air the program.
Is Cyber
Terror Next? - Dorothy E. Denning @ SSRC
Shortly after the September 11 terrorist attack
against the United States, hackers took to the Internet to voice
their rage. A group called the Dispatchers announced they would
destroy Web servers and Internet access in Afghanistan and target
nations that support terrorists.
When Journalists
Report for Duty - Norman Solomon @ ZMag
Much of the initial news coverage was poignant,
grief-stricken and utterly appropriate. But many news analysts and
pundits lost no time conveying -- sometimes with great enthusiasm
-- their eagerness to see the United States use its military might
in anger. Such impulses are extremely dangerous. For instance, night
after night on cable television, Bill O'Reilly has been banging
his loud drum for indiscriminate reprisals. Unless the Taliban quickly
handed over Osama bin Laden, he proclaimed on Fox News Channel,
"the U.S. should bomb the Afghan infrastructure to rubble --
the airport, the power plants, their water facilities and the roads."
And what about the civilian population of Afghanistan? "We
should not target civilians," O'Reilly said, "but if they
don't rise up against this criminal government, they starve, period."
For good measure, O'Reilly urged that the U.S. extensively bomb
Iraq and Libya.
A
Brookings / Harvard Forum: The Role of the Press in the Anti-Terrorism
Campaign
The Brookings Institution has launched a weekly
discussion series on news media issues growing out of the current
anti-terrorism campaign. Stephen Hess of Brookings and Marvin Kalb
of Harvard University's Shorenstein Center have designed the series
to create a low-key environment in which journalists and government
officials can meet to discuss government/press problems and conflicting
interests. The series will also be a forum to consider other media
matters that relate to the current crisis, such as the use of new
media technology and the economics of providing adequate war coverage.

Media
Critics See Web Role Emerge - Jordan Raphael @ USC
Annenberg OJR
Despite initial technological snags and industry-wide
cutbacks, online news sites have contributed substantially to the
coverage of last Tuesday's terrorist attacks on the World Trade

experts surveyed by OJR.
"Lost in the rhetorical
fog of war" - Robert Fisk @ The
Independent
A few months ago, my old friend Tom Friedman
set off for the small Gulf emirate of Qatar, from where, in one
of his messianic columns for The New York Times, he informed us
that the tiny state's Al-Jazeera satellite channel was a welcome
sign that democracy might be coming to the Middle East. Al-Jazeera
had been upsetting some of the local Arab dictators - President
Mubarak of Egypt for one - and Tom thought this a good idea. So
do I. But hold everything. The story is being rewritten. Last week,
US Secretary of State Colin Powell rapped the Emir of Qatar over
the knuckles because - so he claimed - Al-Jazeera was "inciting
anti-Americanism''. Needless to say, this tomfoolery by Colin Powell
has not been given much coverage in the Western media, who know
that they do not have a single correspondent in the Taliban area
of Afghanistan. Al-Jazeera does.

Ground Zero, the Internet, and Networked Society
Michel Bauwens @ infopeace.org/911
Before the day ended a slew of special resources
had been set up by all kinds of individuals, organisations, press
outfits and even corporations, in order to distribute news, but
also to organise solidarity, and to grieve or commune together.
There is no doubt that it successfully performed its role as a technology
for social communication. Note in particular the presence of specialised
weblogs as well as the discussion forums which sprang up in many
places. And it was a definite success as a fundraising tool as well
(Online Donations Set Records), though marred by some profiteering
sites.
Now
Rolling... - Bernie Heidkamp @ PopPolitics
On another level, one yet unexplored, it is
an admission that our images of Manhattan and Washington are almost
completely mediated through a series of popular cultural representations,
especially for people who do not live in or have not visited those
cities. Those representations -- particularly those involving terrorist
threats and attacks -- have simultaneously prepared us for this
type of tragedy and distanced us from feeling and understanding
its impact.

Mantra Used To Justify Abuses - Associated Press
World leaders are being given more latitude

chief offenders by Human Rights Watch in its annual report, which
covers 66 countries.

Cyberwar
is Coming! - John Arquilla and David Ronfeldt
The information revolution and related organizational
innovations are altering the nature of conflict and the kinds of
military structures, doctrines, and strategies that will be needed.
This study introduces two concepts for thinking about these issues:
"cyberwar" and "netwar." Industrialization led
to attritional warfare by massive armies (e.g., World War I). Mechanization
led to maneuver predominated by tanks (e.g., World War II). The
information revolution implies the rise of cyberwar, in which neither
mass nor mobility will decide outcomes; instead, the side that knows
more, that can disperse the fog of war yet enshroud an adversary
in it, will enjoy decisive advantages.
The
Anxieties of Biopolitics - Eugene Thacker @ infopeace.org/911
If, for a moment, we take the two waves
of terrorist "attacks" which have been launched within
the U.S. -- the events of September 11th, and the Anthrax-tainted
letters sent through the mail -- we are presented with a troubling
juxtaposition. As we know, the first wave of attacks (what CNN called
"turning airplanes into missiles") resulted in a large-scale
tragedy that encompassed thousands of human lives, as well as New
York's urban infrastructure, the airline industry, and the nation's
economy. The second wave of "bioterrorism" includes, most
prominently, a letter sent to U.S. Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle
in Washington D.C., and was found to contain a highly concentrated,
pure, and possibly engineered strain of Anthrax (Homeland Security
Director Tom Ridge described it as "made to be more easily
absorbed," while not ruling out the possibility that it was
genetically-modified).

Games @ ABCNEWS.com
It's the Big Daddy of combat simulation:
the Army's Simulation, Training and Instrumentation Command, known
as STRICOM. Video game developers might spend millions of dollars
on a single title, but the STRICOM budget is a whopping $1 billion
a year. Those dollars buy a system that army commanders say is the
best possible preparation they can give their troops before deploying
them to a dangerous battlefield situation. STRICOM's simulators
are designed to immerse soldiers in the sights, sounds, and even
smells of real combat. They can be used to train a wide variety
of soldiers — infantry, tank units, helicopter and jet pilots
— for any situation and any theater, including the rugged terrain
of Afghanistan.

All
Suicide Bombers Are Not Alike - Joseph Lelyveld @ NYTimes
Wondering in the days after Sept. 11 how self-annihilation
had gone from being a tactic for spreading gory mayhem on a local
scale to a weapon of mass destruction, I started reading up on kamikazes
and the Black Tigers of the Tamil movement in Sri Lanka. It seemed
useful to recall that it wasn't only extremist Muslims who blew
themselves up to inflict damage on an enemy. But the World Trade
Center and Pentagon bombers still seemed to me different from any
precursors: in their self-discipline, their ability to coordinate
their efforts over long distances and many months, in the cold power
they silently lorded over their fellow passengers as they waited
to blow them -- and themselves -- to bits. They weren't around to
be asked about their apocalyptic vision and motives, but they had
plenty of contemporaries.

Armed Force and the Laws of War - Adam Roberts @ SSRC
What is the role of the laws of war in the ongoing
'war on terror' proclaimed and initiated by the US following the
terrorist attacks of 11 September 2001? The body of international
law applicable in armed conflict does appear to have a bearing on
many issues raised in anti-terrorist military operations in Afghanistan
as well as elsewhere, including particularly the issues of discrimination
in targeting, protection of civilians, and status and treatment
of prisoners...
Report of the Defense Science
Board Task Force on Information Warfare (Defense)
The Defense Science Board Task Force on Information
Warfare (Defense) was established at the direction of the Under
Secretary of Defense for Acquisition and Technology. By USD (A&T)
Memorandum for the Chairman, Defense Science Board, dated October
4, 1995, the Task Force was directed to "focus on protection
of information interests of national importance through the establishment
and maintenance of a credible information warfare defensive capability
in several areas, including deterrence." Specifically, the
Task Force was asked to: (1) Identify the information users of national
interest who can be attacked through the shared elements of the
national information infrastructure. (2) Determine the scope of
national information interests to be defended by information warfare
defense and deterrence capabilities. (3) Characterize the procedures,
processes, and mechanisms required to defend against various classes
of threats to the national information infrastructure and the information
users of national interest. (4) Identify the indications and warning,
tactical warning, and attack assessment procedures, processes, and
mechanisms needed to anticipate, detect, and characterize attacks
on the national information infrastructure and/or attacks on the
information users of national interest. (5) Identify the reasonable
roles of government and the private sector, alone and in concert,
in creating, managing, and operating a national information warfare-defense
capability. (6) Provide specific guidelines for implementation of
the Task Force's recommendations.
Postmoderm
Terrorism - Walter Laqueur @ Global
Issues
Terrorism has been defined as the substate application
of violence or threatened violence intended to sow panic in a society,
to weaken or even overthrow the incumbents, and to bring about political
change. It shades on occasion into guerrilla warfare (although unlike
guerrillas, terrorists are unable or unwilling to take or hold territory)
and even a substitute for war between states. In its long history
terrorism has appeared in many guises; today society faces not one
terrorism but many terrorisms.
The Kosovo
War Took Place In Orbital Space
John Armitage (Interview With Paul Virilio) @ CTheory
But what is so astonishing about the war in
Kosovo for me is that it was a war that totally bypassed territorial
space. It was a war that took place almost entirely in the air.
There were hardly any Allied armed personnel on the ground. There
was, for example, no real state of siege and practically no blockade.
However, may I remind you that France and Germany were opposed to
a maritime blockade of the Adriatic Sea without a mandate from the
United Nations (UN). So, what we witnessed in Kosovo was an extraordinary
war, a war waged solely with bombs from the air. What happened in
Kosovo was the exact reversal of what happened in 'Fortress Europe'
in 1943-45. Let me explain. Air Marshall 'Bomber' Harris used to
say that 'Fortress Europe' was a fortress without a roof, since
the Allies had air supremacy. Now, if we look at the Kosovo War,
what do we see? We see a fortress without walls — but with
a roof! Isn't that disappearance extraordinary?
Armed
Conflict in the 21st Century: The Information Revolution and Post-Modern
Warfare - Steven Metz @ SSI
Dr. Steven Metz suggests that official thinking
within the U.S. military may be too narrow. The information revolution,
he contends, will have far-reaching strategic effects. The transformation
it brings will not only be technological, but political, social,
ethical and strategic as well. As he explores the impact that the
information revolution may have on the conduct of armed conflict,
Dr. Metz introduces a number of ideas which need further analysis,
including the potential for the emergence of nontraditional, networked
enemies; multidimensional asymmetry; the privatization of security;
and the potential impact of technologies like robotics, nonlethality,
and nanotechnogy. He concludes with an asessment of the features
likely to characterize successful militaries in the 21st century.
National
Security in the Information Age - Matthew G. Devost
An increased reliance on information technology
which is highly vulnerable to failure and sabotage has created a
new risk to the national security of the United States. These vulnerabilities
will be exploited during any conventional military conflicts between
nation states, but several political deterrents including economic
interdependence and fear of escalation decrease their attraction
during peacetime. Despite this, the political and strategic attractions
of information warfare make it a likely terrorist weapon.

U.S. Submits Counter-terrorism
Report to UN @ Cryptome
Complying with a UN Security Council anti-terrorism
resolution, the United States December 19 submitted a detailed report
on its efforts to fight terrorism by cutting off financing to terrorist
groups and their activities. The report was mandated by resolution
1373, passed September 28, 2001. It requires nations, among other
things, to criminalize terrorist activities, freeze the funds and
financial assets of terrorists and their supporters, ban others
from making funds available to terrorists, and deny safe haven to
terrorists. The resolution set up a committee to monitor implementation.
The committee, which has been called the Counter-terrorism Committee,
set December 27 as the deadline for states to submit an initial
report on what they have done to comply with the resolution.

A
Japanese Writer Analyses Terrorists and Their Victims - Howard
W. French @ NYtimes
For Haruki Murakami, Japan's most popular living
fiction writer, the current struggle against terrorism is no clash
of civilizations, much less a crusade. Rather, as the novelist sees
it, the war that opposes the United States and its allies against
reputed terrorist groups like al Qaeda is a collision between incompatible
networks, or what he calls circuits, whose apprehension of reality
is every bit as irreconcilable as matter and antimatter. And whose
collisions are bound to be just as explosive.
Inviting
Future Terrorism - Aaron G. Lehmer @ AlterNet
Since our imposing policies go largely unreported
in the corporate-owned U.S. mass media, Americans are developing
a false sense of innocence about what their government is doing
in their name. In a new book called "9-11," world-renowned
political theorist Noam Chomsky notes that the United States is
regarded in much of the world as a leading terrorist state due to
its killing of several million civilians during the past few decades.
In addition to the well-known case of Vietnam, Chomsky also lists
Laos, Cambodia, Nicaragua, El Salvador, Guatemala, East Timor, Sudan,
Iraq, and Yugoslavia as places where the U.S. government has been
implicated. Unfortunately, Chomsky's list is only the tip of the
iceberg.

In what follows we shall be questioning concerning

isolated sentences and topics. The way is a way of thinking. All
ways of thinking, more or less perceptibly, lead through language
in a manner that is extraordinary. We shall be questioning concerning
technology, and in so doing we should like to prepare a free relationship
to it. The relationship will be free if it opens our human existence
to the essence of technology. When we can respond to this essence,
we shall be able to experience the technological within its own

must never be taken lightly." How appropriate this is for the
cyber landscape! Any company doing business on the Internet is concerned
with defending it's network and critical assets against unauthorized
