Chapter One – Threats and Dangers
Targeted Attacks
In Close Protection the terms threat
and danger
describe the possibility of intended or targeted attacks from assassins, terrorists, kidnappers and people running amok. If you add organised crime to this list, it’s the threat coming from anyone who wants to kill, hurt, kidnap, extort, embarrass or terrorise the Boss.
Most of the contents of this chapter will pertain to terrorism and organised crime. Therefore it is important to put definitions to these violent acts and to the people who commit them. Many people have misconceptions about terrorists and organised criminals that should be cleared up.
Most terrorists and organised criminals are not poor, uneducated or oppressed, nor do they have long hair and wear military uniforms. Many of these people come from middle or upper class families. They might be children of doctors, lawyers, big businessmen and engineers. On the most part they are younger, however, the terrorists who survived the 60s, 70s and 80s, if they are still active, are getting older. Theirs is a very stressful life and even the best-known master terrorists, such as CARLOS have been caught and imprisoned.
Adu Nadal, the ex-leader of the PLO-PFLP has died. Many of the old gangs are still with us and create havoc from time to time with their local systems, such as, PIRA (Provisional Irish Republican Army - Provo’s), IRA (Irish Republican Army), and PLO - Hamas. Many terror organisations worldwide continue their activities, their numbers are growing and Al Qaeda under the leadership of Osama bin Laden seem to be elusive and unstoppable. They have brought violence to an incomprehensible level by involving an enormous number of innocent people. However, their ideals and beliefs, political persuasion, financial motivation or religious ideology don’t matter.
A bodyguard’s job is to keep the Boss clear of any threat. Terrorists may be motivated by political or religious reasons or be motivated by a cause, such as the Green Peace „Save the Whales" campaign. However, as a general rule, different motivations tend to get mixed together. Criminal terrorists are motivated strictly by financial interests, but they often operate under the disguise of political or religious causes. Many terrorists finance their own activities through criminal activities such as robbing financial institutions. Politically motivated terrorists who may start out with pure objectives are apt to turn to violence or a combination of violence, power and making money.
Terrorists may have been good law-abiding citizens once who have gone wrong for all the right reasons. They may be members of an environment organisation or a number of other groups with a cause. Don’t misunderstand; terrorists with a cause are as serious a threat as religious terrorists. International terrorists have
