Federal prosecutors seeking rare death penalty for NYC terror attack suspect

The Secretary General condemned that attack and called on the Palestinian Authority to take action against all those organizing and perpetrating terror and violence.

The Peshawar massacre was not the first time that the world s leading state sponsor of terrorism became a terror victim. But the attack has underscored how the contradiction between battling one set of terror groups while shielding others for cross border undertakings has hobbled the Pakistani state.

The Government of Israel responded to the Netanya terror attack and to the firing of Qassam rockets by tightening the closure regime and by implementing a previously announced resumption of targeted killings.

Most people accept the need for security services to respond to terror, particularly in the aftermath of an attack. Achieving lasting change, however, requires addressing not just the consequences of extremism but also its root causes.

The US certainly has a right to curb terrorists like those who staged the attack on September 11, 2001. But the war on terror did not warrant the decision to attack a sovereign state and topple its government on the flawed presumption that it housed weapons of mass destruction and was linked to the 2001 attacks.

When you attack, you attack as tyrants do.

When you attack, you attack as tyrants do.

When you do this, don't attack people you attack tactics.

Crime and terror

Drugs and terror

NEW DELHI The lull in headline grabbing terror attacks appears to be over. But do the recent suicide attack on the Bagram air base outside of Kabul, a key United States military installation in Afghanistan, and the failed car bombing in New York City s Times Square mean that the war on terror (a phrase that the Obama administration has deliberately sought to avoid) has reignited?

Crack Attack

Federal prosecutors in New York are seeking the death penalty for Sayfullo Saipov, the suspect in the New York City terror attack that killed eight people a rare punishment that hasn't been carried out in the state for a federal crime since 1953.

The face of nuclear terror has changed since the Cold War, but disaster medicine expert Irwin Redlener reminds us the threat is still real. He looks at some of history's farcical countermeasures and offers practical advice on how to survive an attack.

First, Europe is as much a frontline region in the war on terror as it was during the Cold War. As last year s aborted attack on ten airliners heading to the US from London revealed, the likelihood of a terrorist attack on American citizens emanating from a European country remains high.  America may not need the French military, but it certainly needs the French intelligence services.

This may, of course, take some time. A Pakistani court s decision to grant bail to Zaki ur Rehman Lakhvi, who is accused of masterminding the 2008 terror attack that killed 166 people in Mumbai, underscores the challenge of getting every Pakistani government institution on board.

It was just sheer terror.

The war against terror, yes.

Hollywood heart attack. Ughhhh.

The importance of addressing that question cannot be overstated. The largest acts of international terror, including the September 11, 2001, attacks on New York and Washington, DC, and the 2008 Mumbai attack, were carried out by brutal transnational Sunni organizations (Al Qaeda and Lashkar e Taiba, respectively).

The very word terror is global.
