International Policy Institute for Counter-Terrorism
The International Policy Institute for Counter-Terrorism Is an Israel based institut (often called the International Institute for Counter-Terrorism) which is based at the Interdisciplinary Center (IDC), Herzliya, Israel.
The Centre was founded in 1996, and unblushingly claims to be 'the leading academic institute for counter-terrorism in the world, facilitating international cooperation in the global struggle against terrorism.' It also claims to be 'an independent think tank providing expertise in terrorism, counter-terrorism, homeland security, threat vulnerability and risk assessment, intelligence analysis and national security and defense policy.' However, its independence is rhetorical, in reality the Institute is fully signed up to the ideology of the 'war on terror'.[1]
