Terror takeover - the security state
The damage done in the name of fighting terror.

In the wake of 11th September 2001 and the ensuing Western 'war on terror', extraordinary measures have been brought into play in the four corners of the world, in the name of fighting terrorism. These have resulted in widespread human rights violations and the curtailment of civil liberties. But have they made us any safer?
Once democracies begin to accept torture and the various perversions of the judicial process, do they have any moral authority left to confront the despots who are using counterterrorism as an excuse for cleaning up their enemies?
Issue #427 of the New Internationalist magazine includes a powerful essay by security guru Bruce Schneier decrying the often pointless counterterrorism theatrics against movie plot threats indulged in by our elected leaders. Find out what he thinks will actually work against terrorism.
From Peru, documentary film-maker Stephanie Boyd exposes the draconian antiterrorism measures that are silencing dissent, and the alarming privatization of 'security' services.
Our special issue #427 examines the monstrous march of the security state in the war on terror.
If you take up this introductory trial subscription you'll receive:
- Issue #427 of the New Internationalist magazine on Counterterrorism.
- FREE - the next 3 issues of New Internationalist magazine, each worth $9.50, but yours free of charge.
