    On April 15, 2013, during the Boston Marathon, homemade explosions were detonated near the finish line taking the life of 3 Americans and injuring more than 260. The explosive devices were determined to be two pressure cookers strategically set to detonate 210 yards apart at 13 second intervals. The investigation lead was taken over by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) who released photographs and surveillance footage of two particular suspects on April 18. The two individuals were categorized as Chechen brother named Dzhokhar and Tamerlan Tsarnaev. Once these photos were released to the public, the two brothers took the life of an MIT police officer, carjacked a sport utility vehicle and exchanged gun fire with the Watertown police. The shoot out resulted in a second officer being critically injured while one of the suspects Tamerlan Tsarnaev was determined dead at the scene, younger brother Dzhokhar escaped with injuries. A Watertown manhunt followed the April 19 event with thousands of law enforcement personnel converging on a cordoned 20 block search area. Throughout the day long search, Watertown and nearby residents were warned to stay indoors with many public establishments closed. Later that day, the “shelter in place” advisory was lifted for the Watertown area. Shortly after these statements, a Watertown resident found the alleged suspect hiding in his back yard inside the family boat. Police forces converged on the area and arrested Dzhokhar. He was transported to the hospital with serious injuries. At the hospital, an initial questioning took place.

They were indoctrinated with extremist Islamic beliefs and proclaimed as self-radicalized and had no outsourced connections to any terror groups around the globe. The brothers…

    Likely it is because Muslims have been responsible for two of the most prominent terrorist attacks in the past century, including 9/11 in the USA and the November 13 attacks in Paris. There is a clear link between 9/11 and Islam since the group that committed the attack was named “Al-Qaeda,” a self-proclaimed “Islamic” extremist group. I personally know three students in my class in New Jersey who lost a parent during this attack. I remember the videos online of the attack, still evoking strong emotion. It was a day that no American will ever forget. It was also the day where many began to accuse Islam, rather than Islamic extremists, for these attacks. Most of the accusers have never read the Quran, some did not even know where the Middle…

    My design, like Pape (2003), is going to look at suicide attacks but my area of focus is going to be from 1980-2015. This reason for the change is because I want to expand on the data collected by Pape (2003), from the Lexis Nexis data base. Another area of change my research will have is on the properties collected from the data. As citied earlier Pape (2003) looked at three properties I’m only going to look at two. Pape’s main findings are supported by three general patterns he finds in an extensive database he compiled and that he describes as “the first complete universe of suicide terrorist attacks worldwide”.…

    o supplies ISIS with weapons? ISIS has armed itself with weapons seized from the battlefield in Iraq and Syria. The group has also reportedly received funding from wealthy individuals in Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Turkey, and Qatar and then used the money to buy arms on the black market. These nations support ISIS because both consider Iran and Syria a threat, share anti-Shiite sentiment, and want to protect fellow Sunnis from violence sanctioned by Assad and Maliki. Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, and Qatar have passed legislation banning such aid, but the governments have done little to enforce the laws. According to a Dec. 2013 study by the Brookings Institution, donations are funneled through Kuwait and make their way to militant groups. "Today, there is evidence that Kuwaiti donors have backed rebels who have committed atrocities and who are either directly linked to al-Qa’ida or cooperate with its affiliated brigades on the ground," the report said.…
