This edition of the CTC Sentinel focuses on 1) the responses by law enforcement agencies to the San Bernardino (2015) and Orlando (2016) terrorist attacks in the United States; 2) the increasing reliance by the so-called Islamic State on significantly older operatives; 3) Italy’s diminishing immunity from terrorist threats; and 4) the insurgency being waged by Iranian Kurdish militias against Tehran. The edition also features an interview with James Gagliano, who served as an FBI Hostage Rescue Team Counterterrorist Operator.
