Hmm - that last edit seems to imply that counter-insurgency isn't a synonym for counter-terrorism. I think I would dispute that implication... -- Khendon
Terrorism isn't the same as insurgency--different methods, and different aims. An organized rebel army isn't a terrorist group, whereas pro-government forces kidnapping dissidents are terrorists but not insurgents. It is politically convenient for governments to paint the two as equivalent, but it's not accurate. Vicki Rosenzweig
I equate insurgency, protracted war, and guerilla warfare. Mao wrote On Protracted War, and a variety of authors from Right to Left wrote on guerilla warfare, so I don't consider either term to be caught up in the "War on Terror". I've also worked with the term "insurgency" since the late sixties. My point is that "terror" appears in much of such literature, often as the main operational method of Mao's Phase I. One can have terror without guerilla warfare, as in a government death squad, but I would argue that there has been no significant insurgency that did not practice terror. In addition to repressive governments, some of today's supranational movements do not seem to be embarking on guerilla warfare with the eventual goal of taking over a nation-state, but, rather in the anarchist tradition, to destabilize states that displease them.

Counterterrorism is different from antiterrorism, and should be kept as a seperate entry. While it is one of two major strategies in the fight against global terrorism, I would say it is the "first among equals". Since 9/11, more has been done for antiterrorism - that is, defensive measures against future terrorist attack. as “Antiterrorist defenses constitute a very large proportion of the U.S. fight against terrorism, certainly in resources but also in leadership attention” (Pillar, Paul R. Terrorism and U.S. Foreign Policy (Washington D.C., Brookings Institute Press, 2001), p. 38). A look at the FY 2006 budget for the Department of Homeland Security is one place to look; the budget includes $41.1 billion for the DHS, a seven-percent increase. Included in that budget is the establishment of the Domestic Nuclear Detection Office (DNDO), reflecting the Administrations' concerns that nuclear devices, fissile material or radiological material may fall into the hands of terrorists. In fact, “the budget includes $125 million to purchase Radiation Portal Monitors (RPMs)” (Department of Homeland Security: Press Room – Press Releases. Accessed online December 2005) to detect the smuggling of both gamma and neutron radiation over our borders.

There is much value to what Radagast83 added, but I suggest some thought about the article size, whether it should spin off specific subarticles (e.g., balancing privacy and counterterrorism, infrastructure hardening, money tracking), and if there can be better links to the hierarchy of intelligence articles that I've set up. I probably have the materials for a start on money transfer law and such in the US, but I'd really need a financial expert to help define analysis. Howard C. Berkowitz 16:18, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

IHMO this article reads like a mid term essay by an American high school student. There is so much wrong with it I'll just highlight some points but his is not an comprehensive list by any means.
There is no analysis of why certain governments choose to use the term terrorist and counter-terrorism. It assumes that such labels are universally agreed too. But a read of the section Terrorism#Pejorative use will show that there are sound propaganda reasons for using the term. This should be mentioned early in the article to help create a WP:NPOV
Many section read as if terrorism only became a problem after 9/11 and that the American problems and solutions are the only ones that exist. For example until I changed it today the section Anti-terrorism implied that before London bombings of 7 July and 21 July 2005, the British did not have any problems with terrorism or any anti-terrorism legislation. The British have had problems with terrorism in its modern type since the middle of the 1800s (see The Fenians and the IRA) and The Metropolitan Police Service Historical Archives says
Protection of the Head of State from assassination was a serious issue in the nineteenth century. Queen Victoria was subjected to five attempts on her life. The Russian anarchist Bakunin preached a doctrine which resulted in the deaths of 25 Heads of State.
The history of Anarchists is illustrated by various incidents from the man Bourdin who blew himself up with his own bomb at Greenwich in 1894, the Sidney Street siege in 1911 and the Tottenham Outrage, a chase of two anarchists who commandeered a tram, during which incident many shots were exchanged with police
As another example take the section Counter-terrorism#Military intervention
Who says "Terrorism has often been used to justify military intervention in countries where terrorists are said to be based." Two examples do not justify such a statement and even if there were 50 examples a source is needed. This paragraph falls fouls of WP:PROVEIT and WP:OR.
Perhaps the writer is confusing 'terrorism' with 'guerrilla warfare'. WWII Partisans, for example targeted occupation troops and perceived collaborators but it was the invaders that terrorized and massacred entire populations. 64.193.69.169 ( talk) 11:11, 2 April 2010 (UTC)
"History has shown that military intervention has rarely been successful in stopping or preventing terrorism. is a very dubious statement what about the Malayan Emergency, the Mau Mau, All but the first IRA campaigns including the Irish Civil War, S-Plan, Border Campaign (IRA), the Troubles in Northern Ireland.
"Although military action can disrupt a terrorist group's operations temporarily, it rarely ends the threat (Pape, Robert A. (2005). Dying to Win: The Strategic Logic of Suicide Terrorism. Random House. pp. 237–250.)." For example how many of the campaigns against the Soviet Union inside the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe did not end with a Soviet victory even if in some cases to quote Calgacus "atque, ubi solitudinem faciunt, pacem appellant". Not heard of those campaigns? I'm not supprised but for example one of the more unpleasent jobs that the cambridgespy ring did was to shop to the soviets the British agents helping in Operation Jungle.
BTW what dos this mean? "However, new methods such as those taken in Iraq have yet to be seen as beneficial or ineffectual."
In the section "Non-military Intervention" there is a classic sentence from a First World POV assuming that "terrorists" (pronounced with a Rhodesian accent) are only fighting for "the provision of clean drinking water, education, vaccination programs, provision of food and shelter and protection from violence, military or otherwise. Successful human security campaigns have been characterised by the participation of a diverse group of actors including governments, NGOs, and citizens.". How likely is it that the Republicans in Ireland would have been swayed into renouncing the IRA campaign for "clean drinking water, education, vaccination programs, provision of food and shelter and protection from violence,"? AFAICT the British suicide bombers who took part in the attack on Israel 2003, 7/7 and the Glasgow attacks; and Yigal Amir and Timothy McVeigh would not have been put off their terrorist actions with the offer of a glass of clean water and nor would their supporters.
The two sections need to be combined with the mention that successful counter insurgency policies involve carrot, ( hearts and minds) and stick, (soldiers on the ground). However although that is true for an insurgency, is it true for counter-terrorism? Could Northern Ireland ever have been solved without the stick and a political compromise. Further to counter young British Muslims launching suicide attacks, no one is suggesting paras on the streets of Bradford. Dources are needed for this type of analysis. -- Philip Baird Shearer ( talk) 13:43, 27 November 2007 (UTC)
Good luck to you. I have many pages on my watch list and I am not going to add this one so I will not be helping you. Just one parting thought: I think you should add to the introduction a sentence or two by saying that this article is about counter-terrorism and not about counter-insurgency although counter-terrorism may also form a part of a counter-insurgency stratagy. -- Philip Baird Shearer ( talk) 11:40, 28 November 2007 (UTC)
There has been some inclusion of Sri Lanka in this article. Namely the current Civil war is used in this article as "War on Terrorism" and "Counter terrorism". The citation that are given to back these statements do not represent these views. Since wikipedia policy asks users to add reference to such, controversial, claims I am removing the inclusion of Sri Lanka in this article. If reference can be provided, that too from WP:RS, then the removed text can be re-added. Watchdogb ( talk) 18:45, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
The Government should not, however, interpret the widespread proscription of the LTTE as a terrorist organization as an endorsement of its own record. Indeed, it is an enduring scandal that convictions of government officials for killing Tamils are virtually non-existent, and many Tamils doubt that the rule of law will protect their lives. [1]
A resolution of this conflict that would merit the international community's endorsement will require the Government, the LTTE, or both, to demonstrate genuine respect for human rights. The strategic importance of achieving and maintaining international legitimacy grounded in respect for human rights is not completely lost on either the Government or the LTTE. Indeed, the discourse of human rights is central to the parties' own understandings of the conflict's origins and conduct. However, by using proxies, the subversion of accountability mechanisms, and disinformation, both parties have been able to commit deniable human rights abuses. Effective monitoring would foreclose the possibility of employing a strategy of deniability, pressuring the Government and the LTTE to seek legitimacy through actual rather than simulated respect for human rights.
The monitoring mission is hamstrung by its connection to the peace process, limiting its willingness to speak out on human-rights violations for fear of disrupting peace talks. Its limited capacity was severely weakened when, on 1 August, Sweden, Finland and Denmark announced their withdrawal from the mission in response to a Tamil Tiger demand that all European Union nations pull out because the EU had named it (in May 2006) as a terrorist group. [2] This hardly has anything to do with the US War on Terror.
Do you claim that the Federal Research Division of the Library of Congress is not WP:RS? The citation points to Tamil militancy. From Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam, "The LTTE is currently proscribed as a terrorist organisation by 32 countries (see list)" I have updated some of the links to references about terrorism in Sri Lanka, including Human Rights Watch, the United Nations, the United States Department of State, the Academy of European Law, Jane's Information Group, and the United States Federal Bureau of Investigation.
No, I do not claim anything is WP:RS or not. LTTE's proscribed part is just that. They are proscribed. How does this relate to the current topic ? If you want to argue that because LTTE is proscribed as terrorists and because the Sri Lankan Government is fighting LTTE, then this can be considred counter terrorist. If so, then I direct you to WP:SYNT. You cannot put together published relaible material unless some WP:RS does this for you.
Each of these sources speak of suicide attacks in Sri Lanka, many as a form of targeted assassination, but all causing casualties among civilians. How are countermeasures to such attacks, meeting the usual definition of terrorism as spreading fear among neutrals, not anti- and counter-terrorism?
.
Same reason as above. You are clearly synthesizing material published by various WP:RS to advance a view. This is not allowed in wikipedia.
Are you seriously suggesting that there is no terrorism, regardless of side, in Sri Lanka?
I whole heartedly agree that there is Terrorism in Sri Lanka. Watchdogb ( talk) 19:46, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
My understanding is that the disagreement revolves around the characterisation of the conflict in Sri Lanka as an example of "anti terrorism activity". In my view, part of the problem seems to be ambiguity regarding the meaning of "anti-terrorism" - none of the three sources currently given for Sri Lanka use the term. Could someone offer a clearer definition of "anti-terrorism"? Thank you, Black Falcon ( Talk) 21:08, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
Defensive measures used to reduce the vulnerability of individuals and property to terrorist acts, to include limited response and containment by local military and civilian forces.
"[A] definition of terrorism needs to be separated as much as possible from evaluations of the groups using violence and their targets."

I think there is now a definition of "terrorism" agreed by more than one nation state. If i'm right then the statement near the begining of that article stating that there is not at present any "internationally agreed definition" of the word is out of date; is it not? I think the definition relates to an international treaty that can lead to legislation being automatically co-opted from one jurisdiction to another depending on what purpose the legislation was made for. 79.72.136.68 ( talk) 16:07, 9 September 2009 (UTC)

I am a CIA Operative who has been given permission to mention two examples from my counter terrorism work which were especially helpful in our resistance to Al-Qaida. In the first case, I went around to burlesque houses to talk to dancers. With good fortune, I found a lady who was an Al-Qaida recruiter, although I spent almost five hundred dollars of my own money getting information out of her. Other CIA agents followed up and we learned alot before she unfortunately suicided, but if she had not done so, she probably would have gone to prison. Her death might have been accidental, but I will never know because I was shifted to other duty. The whole group working with her was brought down. In another case, I was eating nachos in a Chili's restaurant with my girlfriend when a known terrorist walked in with four female bodyguards. To make a long story short, I was able to verify that this was indeed a mafia fellow named Napoli, and not just a man who looked like him, and after I ushered my girlfriend out of the restaurant authorities moved in to capture him. The females with him had balisong knives but were not much of a problem. Napoli had the names of 650,000 Al-Qaida recruits and bringing him down was a major blow to the terrorist movement in general. Today, there are about 50 terrorist organizations in America, but Al-Qaida is mostly gone and the growth of terrorism is finally stopped, and we expect that the number of subversive terrorists will shrink from now on until the War on Terrorism is ended. The next generation will have a safer world entirely. I was asked to share these examples to show that God really does help CIA agents in their work, since the amazing luck I experienced could not have been accomplished without the Lord.

"The tactic of terrorism is available to insurgents and governments. Not all insurgents use terror as a tactic, and some choose not to use it because other tactics work better for them in a particular context. Individuals, such as Timothy McVeigh, may also engage in terrorist acts such as the Oklahoma City bombing."
While it is no doubt that McVeigh is a major criminal who committed a horrific crime, describing him as a "terrorist" is not exactly the clearest example of this term nor a good segue into an article about terrorism. McVeigh specifically targeted a federal institution in a direct retaliation for Waco. Generally, a terrorist attempts to insight terror in the general public. McVeigh is a poor example to use for the introduction in this article.
Why not use bin Laden who orchestrated the 9/11 attacks which were targeting commercial airlines and commercial buildings? This terrorist has led to the death of thousands more US citizens than McVeigh. Bin Laden specifically targets civilians in ways to insight fear and panic in society, costing us our freedom and billions of USD annually in security and counter terrorism efforts. He is clearly the more notorious terrorist. But why was McVeigh chosen???? Judging by the poor grammar and sentence structure this looks like a half witted attempt to bias this article by trying to associate "terrorist" with a home grown criminal rather than the actual notorious Islamic extremist terrorist that are engaging in terrorist activity against the USA on a daily basis. This kind of garbage bias lowers the value of Wikipedia. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.233.148.226 ( talk) 04:36, 23 November 2010 (UTC)

This article is overall really informative in regards to Counter Terrorism. I do believe that it could be a little bit longer, and more details in regards to some subtopics. I.E., it could go more into counter terrorism efforts and how certain departments have developed in efforts to combat terrorism, and its gradual evolution into global terrorism. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ShipleyNuts ( talk • contribs) 20:01, 2 March 2017 (UTC)
There appears to be a lack of references for various pieces of information in this article, such as the very first paragraph in the History section. Despite this, other parts of the article that are cited seem to be done so properly from reliable sources. I think the first paragraph in the Preparation section could be expanded upon with some examples. The 'Command and Control' subsection needs to be cited, as well as the 'Military' section. Outside of those few things everything is well written. Marrelljones ( talk) 03:48, 9 March 2017 (UTC)
This section begins by pointing out the use of targeted assassinations as being a function of the U.S., Russia, Israel, and the United Kingdom. However, it goes on to claim the phenomenon are typically unemployed by western states. There is no citation to back up this claim, and the U.S. and the U.K. are arguably the most influential Western powers. Maybe a cited reference to the U.S. and U.K. defying Western norms in this capacity would be a more accurate wording.

Citations would make it more credible Somewhat biased perspective in how it mentions the US Under the "planning" portion, more countries could be listed Goes pretty in-depth about human rights and is sort of lacking in areas like history and examples from more than just a couple countries There is a specific section on how the US law enforcement reacts to it but then a "international" section for all other countries Mainly hits on national and religious terrorism, not as much on left wing or right wing. Kelmojo ( talk) 16:07, 9 March 2017 (UTC)
The facts stated in the definition have no citation backing up the points of the last sentence, "The United States Armed Forces use the term foreign internal defense for programs that support other countries in attempts to suppress insurgency, lawlessness, or subversion or to reduce the conditions under which these threats to security may develop".
There needs to be more factual backed information from the US Armed Forces sites to become credible.
Needs to include more information about different types of Counter-terrorism. Lists that it is more like Counter-insurgency, which is the defense of Nationalist terrorist groups.
Give more information about the counter-terrorism tactics of other ideologies of Terrorism.

Counter terrorism can equally be applied to the role of "insurgents". Can we, for example, entertain the notion that opponents of Putin and supporters of Navalny are not engaged in a form of counter-terrorism? It's a "Which came first? The chicken or the egg?" argument, but valid nonetheless. This article seems overly 'establishment' and not fairly balanced. Hanoi Road ( talk) 22:43, 7 February 2021 (UTC)
