The Guardian: Volume 10, Number 1, Spring 2008. The Source for Antiterrorism Information.

Abstract

I am asking you, the Guardian readership, for your feedback at www.guardianfeedback.xservices. com. Your input will help make the Guardian a more useful product to the Protection community. The inputs to the magazine we have had never cease to amaze me. To date, these thoughtful injects into the all-hazards approach stimulate good discussion and facilitate an important dialogue for the community. While many consider our most dangerous threat to be al Qaeda affiliated groups, other terrorist groups, such as Hezbollah, should not be discounted. Just as troubling, the threats to our forces from criminal elements and random acts of violence remain the more probable threat. The force protection provisions implemented are to protect ourselves not just from transnational terror groups, but from the myriad individuals and groups that wish us harm. While the recent attack against the recruiting station in NYC was without an apparent terror nexus, it nonetheless was an attack.
