Paper Two  Paper two is a continuation of the work you did on your first paper of this course. As always, pay close attention to the following guidelines.

Allow yourself ample time to complete this assignment to the best of your ability. 

1.Of the five articles you used for your Paper 1 assignment during Week 2, select three that share a common theme discussed in the first nine chapters of our textbook.  CJ450-Understanding Terrorism Nacos, B. L. (2016). Terrorism and counterterrorism, (5th ed.). Boston, MA: Routledge. ISBN: 9781138190146 

  HERE THEY ARE…..  

Article 1
 Explain the problem the author of the article addresses.  Lawson (2018) states that the security dilemma escalates involvement of communities in Syrian in the Islamic State war. Communities support terrorist organizations when they are assured of security. ◦Explain how the author deals with the problem (the author’s methodology).  According to Lawson (2018), Lawson has taken Syria as a case study to see how countries can win the war on terrorism. ◦Explain the conclusions the author reaches in the article.   Addressing the security dilemma in countries that are faced with terrorism will prevent the communities from supporting the organizations (Lawson, 2018). When security is assured the local communities will not support the ISIS. References Lawson, F. H. (2018). The assistance front versus the popular protection units versus the Islamic state: Reciprocal mobilization and the ascendance of violent non-state actors in the Syrian Civil War. In Violent Non-state Actors and the Syrian Civil War (pp. 91-106). Springer, Cham.

 Article 2 
Explain the problem the author of the article addresses.  According to Isakhan (2018), self defence by Shia on their Holy Sites has escalated the ISIS agenda. The Shia community established a military wing to fight the ISIS who got an opportunity to get support from radicalized Shiite communities. ◦Explain how the author deals with the problem (the author’s methodology).  Event sampling methodology was done to establish why the ISIS has enormous support from the Shi’ite community (Isakhan, 2018). ◦Explain the conclusions the author reaches in the article.   Isakhan (2018) concludes that the communities should stop falling for the divide and rule policy adopted by ISIS. The Shiite and Shia should engage in dialogue to stop taking sides in the ISIS issue to have the terrorist group defeated. References  Isakhan, B. (2018). The Islamic State Attacks on Shia Holy Sites and the “Shrine Protection Narrative”: Threats to Sacred Space as a Mobilization Frame.Terrorism and Political Violence, 1-25.

 Article 3 
Explain the problem the author of the article addresses.  Yesiltas (2018) noted that ISIS was a terrorist group created to eliminate the influence that the West had started having in the Middle East. ◦Explain how the author deals with the problem (the author’s methodology).  A quasi experiment on the entire Middle East reveal that the ISIS and the Arab Spring was a revolt against the Western influence on the local population (Yesiltas, 2018). ◦Explain the conclusions the author reaches in the article.   According to Yesiltas (2018), the ISIS can be best defeated at a local level than a foreign level. The interference of the West on local matters has seen ISIS get sympathizers in the Middle East region making it difficult to defeat the terrorist group. References  Yeşiltaş, M., & Kardaş, T. (2018). The New Middle East, ISIL and the 6th Revolt Against the West. In Non-State Armed Actors in the Middle East (pp. 147-167). Palgrave Macmillan, Cham.
