Developing Multi-Agency Interoperability Communications Systems: User's Handbook
This handbook is the result of a developed and focused effort by the ODP to address interoperability and is intended to enhance communications among the numerous agencies who would respond to large-scale terrorism incidents or emergencies. This handbook provides pragmatic information and practical steps on setup and operation of a multi-agency interoperability communications system using the highly adaptable ACU-1000 Modular Interface/ Interconnect System (ACU-1000), and the TRP-1000 Transportable Radio Interconnect System (TRP-1000). Section Two, Introduction to Multiple Agency Interoperability, provides background on multiple agency interoperability communication along with basic information on the ACU/TRP-1000 Gateway Switch/ Interoperability Communications System, including a general overview of its operation. Section Three, Establishing an Interoperability System, outlines the basic set-up and initial operating procedures of the ACU/ TRP-1000 Interoperability Communication System. Section Four, Technical and Tactical Considerations, presents valuable insight and experience gained through a survey of jurisdictions that have had operational experience with the ACU/TRP-1000 Interoperability Communications Systems. Section Five, Operating System Models, is provided to further assist users involved in setting up their own multi-agency interoperability communication system. This section presents descriptions of setup and deployment by jurisdictions that are using the ACU/TRP-1000. These system models demonstrate the potential for achieving a high performance system. From these reviews, new users will be better prepared to set-up and operate comprehensive systems that take full advantage of the capabilities of the ACU/TRP-1000.

Jihadi Graphics and Images
"Message Forums on the internet have become the prime method of communication for terrorist groups and sympathizers. They range from "legitimate"ideological religious and political groups, such as the Islamic Circle of North America (ICNA), Al Muhajiroun, linked to the teachings of the radical Muslim cleric Abu-Hamzaal Masri to; insurgent groups and sympathizers, disseminating information on bomb making, computer hacking and software piracy. They decorate their messages with graphics and artwork honoring their martyrs and sometimes providing insights to their plans or intentions. Some of these graphics and pictures can be useful indicators of terrorist activities or sympathizers, or to help the anti-terrorism investigator identify trends and "badguys." This presentation will focus on those found on insurgent websites and message boards, what they are and what they may mean in an effort to increase your familiarity."
