The Munich Olympics massacre in 1972 was a shock awakening to the
public. In the decades since, European countries have faced a wide
range of threats from Palestinian and home-grown terrorists, to the
more recent world-wide jihadists. The threats they pose are
widespread from aircraft hi-jacking and political assassinations to
urban warfare against security forces, and murderous attacks on
civilian crowd targets, forcing governments have had to invest
ever-greater efforts in countering these threats. This book traces
the evolution of police (and associated military) counter-terrorist
forces across Europe over the past 45 years. Using specially
commissioned artwork and contemporary photographs, it details their
organization, missions, specialist equipment, and their growing
cross-border co-operation.
