Guest author Nauel Semaan shares her insights about the Lebanese elections, the local reactions and how change is difficult in a system designed for stability.
In the aftermath of the terrorist attack in Trèbes, France on March 23, many aspects of the attack and the ensuing investigation led to a variety of erroneous comments and numerous questions. As many of those comments and questions were addressed to MOSECON, we will give some answers here, hoping that they can provide a degree of understanding surrounding this attack.
It is and will be one of the hottest topics in the field of security in 2018: Should foreign fighters – especially those who pledged allegiance to ISIS – be allowed to return to their home countries? Yan St-Pierre explains the pros, cons & risks and gives his advice.
Yan St-Pierre discusses whether the Hamburg knife attack can be classified as terrorism or not and gives the pros and cons of labelling an attack.
@maxgercke @MOSECON_Group Thanks for your interest. I think it's the old "straw that breaks the camel's back" factor, which is in fact random per se, but part of a larger context full of patterns. 1/
@MOSECON_Yan @MOSECON_Group That's an interesting take on triggers. Do you think these small changes like tax increases are just random events which push the people over the edge or is there a pattern? I'll try to identify triggers for civil wars in my Master's thesis, that's why I'm so interested.
@WillieMObiano the fuel tanker disaster is so sad, nd we must put an end to it.I have spoken with Anambra SEMA executive.Will hv my team @MOSECON_Group help out with the apt prevention and response solutions.
Pleasure listening to and speaking with @obyezeks @MatthewTPage and several others today about the security situation and German policy in #Nigeria. Wasn't the typical boring policy chat
I'm always fascinated by what triggers can be. We tend to look for a "big" event but it's always something much smaller, like tax increase on certain products or death of someone dismissed an "unimportant". Which is why the timing of a crisis is unpredictable. https://t.co/PlM2tlQYrs
