• Terrorism, Security and the Gender Gap.
• The terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 graphically confronted people around the world with the importance of security issues and international threat. ... Perhaps even more than for men, these new security issues have important implications for women voters. ... And yet, after the events of 2001, American political polls have pointed to a sea change in women's voting with women becoming more and more concerned about security issues, and voting in larger and larger numbers for the Republican party of President George W. ... But it is in Australia that we can perhaps best see the impact of security issues on women's votes, because a national election was called on October 5 2001, just 3 weeks after 9/11 ・voters casting their votes 5 weeks later on November 10th. ... Amongst those Australian voters who said terrorism, national security and asylum-seekers were the most important issues in deciding how to vote, women were significantly more conservative in their political evaluations and voting than men. ... In short, while the Coalition government was favoured by all voters who expressed strong concern for international security issues, women were significantly more likely than men to hold these conservative attitudes, and to vote for the Coalition. ... All told, then, voter attitudes in the Australian 2001 election reveal that the new, heightened importance of security issues did not have an identical impact across the electorate. In fact, one of the most important patterns to emerge from the survey is that many voters remained focused on the importance of domestic issue concerns ・despite the emotional power of the terrorism issue. ... Indeed, the data show that, for the most part, it was older women with no university educations who were most concerned with security issues, and most likely to use those concerns to guide votes for the Coalition. ... In the end, the 2001 Australian results serve as a reminder that terrorism and security appear not to have displaced most voters・ongoing concerns with the everyday realities that mould their lives ・jobs, economics, health care, and the security of their families at home. ...

• The Chemical Security Act: Using Terrorism as an Excuse to Criminalize Productive Economic Activity by Paul Rosenzweig.
• The Chemical Security Act of 2001 (S. ... Because of its putative connection to terrorism, some of its supporters want the bill to be included as an amendment to the proposed Homeland Security Act of 2002. ... 1602 is bad policy that would punish victims of terrorism, not deter terrorists.
• Making Innocent Victims of Terrorism the Criminals. ...
• Thus, the bill posits that risks arising from a criminal terrorist attack on a chemical facility could be lessened by government-mandated changes in production methods that reduce the use and storage of chemicals; the employment of "inherently safer" technologies (whatever those are) to manufacture, transport, and use chemicals; the enhancement of containment structures and other mitigation methods; and the improvement of security at chemical plants.
• The criminalization of the victim of terrorism is not the only flaw in S. ... With the threat of terrorism currently ranked "high" by the Administration, broadcasting the weaknesses of the chemical industry would be ludicrous, if not immoral.
• Rather than adopting a market-based approach, some backers of the bill are attempting to marry the long-held environmentalist agenda of chemical-use reduction to the war on terrorism.
• 1602 are not really attempting to combat terrorism; terrorists will continue to find ways to thwart whatever technological and methodological changes are made to their targets to achieve their end. ...

• Drafts Sweeping Expansion of Anti-Terrorism Act Center Publishes Secret Draft of ‘Patriot II’ Legislation.
• The bill, drafted by the staff of Attorney General John Ashcroft and entitled the Domestic Security Enhancement Act of 2003, has not been officially released by the Department of Justice, although rumors of its development have circulated around the Capitol for the last few months under the name of “the Patriot Act II” in legislative parlance.
• The draft of the Domestic Security Enhancement Act of 2003 (12 MB).
• “Attached for your review and comment is a draft legislative proposal entitled the ‘Domestice Security Enhancement Act of 2003,’” the memo, sent from “OLP” or Office of Legal Policy, says.
• David Cole, Georgetown University Law professor and author of Terrorism and the Constitution, reviewed the draft legislation at the request of the Center, and said that the legislation “raises a lot of serious concerns. ...
• Some of the key provision of the Domestic Security Enhancement Act of 2003 include:.
• Section 201, “Prohibition of Disclosure of Terrorism Investigation Detainee Information”: Safeguarding the dissemination of information related to national security has been a hallmark of Ashcroft’s first two years in office, and the Domestic Security Enhancement Act of 2003 follows in the footsteps of his October 2001 directive to carefully consider such interest when granting Freedom of Information Act requests. While the October memo simply encouraged FOIA officers to take national security, “protecting sensitive business information and, not least, preserving personal privacy” into account while deciding on requests, the proposed legislation would enhance the department’s ability to deny releasing material on suspected terrorists in government custody through FOIA.
• The authors of this statute claim that these consent orders, which were passed as a result of police spying abuses, could impede current terrorism investigations. ...
• Section 405, “Presumption for Pretrial Detention in Cases Involving Terrorism”: While many people charged with drug offenses punishable by prison terms of 10 years or more are held before their trial without bail, this provision would create a comparable statute for those suspected of terrorist activity. ... “This presumption is warranted because of the unparalleled magnitude of the danger to the United States and its people posed by acts of terrorism, and because terrorism is typically engaged in by groups – many with international connections – that are often in a position to help their members flee or go into hiding. ...
• The Domestic Security Enhancement Act is the latest development in an 18-month trend in which the Bush Administration has sought expanded powers and responsibilities for law enforcement bodies to help counter the threat of terrorism.
• The USA Patriot Act allowed the Federal Bureau of Investigation to share information gathered in terrorism investigations under the “foreign intelligence” standard with local law enforcement agencies, in essence nullifying the higher standard of oversight that applied to domestic investigations. ...
• “Now they want to break down the wall between international terrorism and domestic terrorism. ...
• 9, 2002, hearing of the Senate Judiciary Subcommittee on Technology, Terrorism, and Government Information, Deputy Assistant Attorney General Alice Fisher testified that Justice had been, “looking at potential proposals on following up on the PATRIOT Act for new tools and we have also been working with different agencies within the government and they are still studying that and hopefully we will continue to work with this committee in the future on new tools that we believe are necessary in the war on terrorism. ...

• Terrorism.
• Security at All Costs?.
• The attack on the United States on September 11, 2001 was the worst one-day act of terrorism the world has ever seen. ...   Are we willing to sacrifice our freedom now, at all costs, in the name of national security?.
• SECURITY VERSUS ACCESS.
•   A common concern is, “Should we implement tight security measures in all public facilities that would restrict or deny access to the public in an effort to prevent future attacks?”.
•   Anything less will be giving into the fear of terrorism.
• HAVE A SECURITY PLAN.
• Security improvements like access control should be first addressed at the policy and procedure level and supplemented by personnel to enforce the policy. ...   I am certain that most building security priorities will change many times over the next few weeks as more intelligence is gathered and the industry has a chance to digest what has just occurred. ...
• ADD PHYSICAL SECURITY SLOWLY.
• Installation of new physical security measures or major design changes should come later after careful consideration and planning. ...
•   Do we really want to permanently disfigure them by adding new structures or barriers to insolate them from suicide bombers based on a handful of events?  In my experience, Americans will only tolerate increased security and a restriction of their personal freedom for the short term until we see how the government response plays out. ...
•   I predict that any overly restrictive security measures will be eased or removed in time. ...
• One person asked, “Won’t a return to normalcy make us more vulnerable to future attacks?”  Of course it will, but I believe most Americans will take the philosophical approach of not living their lives in fear of terrorism.   If you think about it, ordinary security measures offer little deterrent effect against those willing to commit mass murder and suicide to carry our their mission.

The 1995 bombing of the Federal Building in Oklahoma City, the 1995 derailment of an Amtrak passenger train in Arizona, and the 1996 Centennial Olympic Park bombing in Atlanta, has pushed domestic terrorism to the forefront of security awareness. As cited by Kaplan and Tharp, (1997), the FBI is currently investigating over 900 incidents of domestic terrorism, as opposed to 100 investigations before the Oklahoma City bombing.

• Many states wanted to add "aggression", "terrorism" and drug trafficking to the list of crimes covered by the Rome Statute; however other states opposed this, on the grounds that these crimes were difficult to define, and that dealing with less serious crimes such as terrorism and drug trafficking would distract from the seriousness of the crimes the ICC was established to deal with. ...
• The initial impetus for its establishment came from within the United Nations, and although is legally a separate entity, and not a United Nations institution, the UN has a clearly defined role towards the court even though it was established by a separate treaty between states, and not the Security Council acting under the United Nations Charter. Its relationship with the United Nations will be governed by an agreement to be entered into between the Court and the United Nations, which will likely provide mainly for Security Council referrals under the Rome Statute, and for the United Nations to pay for any prosecutions made under such a referral. ...
• Although supporters say that the checks and balances in the ICC make this an unlikely possibility, opponents argue that giving even a temporary member of the Security Council the power to veto any objections of prosecutorial bias gives the ICC no accountability whatsoever. ...
• United Nations Security Council Resolution 1422 .
• In July 2002, the United States threatened to use its Security Council veto to block renewal of the mandates of several United Nations peacekeeping operations, unless the Security Council agreed to permanently exempt US nationals from the Court's jurisdiction. ...
• When the other members of the Security Council rejected that approach, the United States then sought to make use of a provision of the Rome Statute, which permits the Security Council to request the ICC not to exercise its jurisdiction over a certain matter for up to one year at a time. The United States sought the Security Council to convey such a request to the ICC concerning personnel on United Nations peacekeeping and enforcement operations, and to have that request renewed automatically each year. (If it was renewed automatically each year, then another Security Council resolution would be required to cease the request, which the US could then veto--which would effectively make the request permanent. ) Court supporters argued that the Rome Statute requires the request to be valid to be voted upon anew each year in the Security Council, and hence that an automatically renewing request would violate the Statute. ...
• Other members of the Security Council opposed this United States request also. ... The United Kingdom eventually negotiated a compromise, whereby the US would be granted its request, but only for a period of one year, and a new Security Council vote would be required in July each year for the exclusion of peacekeepers from ICC jurisdiction to be continued. All members of the Security Council endorsed this resolution, although many did so reluctantly. The result was UN Security Council Resolution 1422. ...
