This book analyzes a series of decisions by leaders of three major
terrorist organizations and identifies a unique "Decision DNA" for
each of them. The authors use the Applied Decision Analysis
methodology to examine organizational and operational decisions
made by the leaders of three major groups: Hezbollah (Hassan
Nasrallah), Hamas (Khaled Mashal), and al-Qaeda (Osama bin Laden).
Decisions that were of critical importance to each organization are
identified and anaylzed, to uncover the particular decision rule
employed by the leader in question and to establish their "Decision
DNA." A Decision DNA is unique to each leader and can be used to
explain previous decisions or predict future choices. The authors
demonstrate that the findings presented can be used to promote
effective counterterrorism measures, and they provide a series of
policy implications that arise from their examination of each
leader. This book will be of much interest to students of terrorist
studies, political violence, security studies, and Middle Eastern
politics.
