Responses to high profile acts of "terrorism" have been remarkably uniform in nature |
The response to "terrorism" has been remarkably uniform in nature, as governments around the world have used the fear (or acquiescence) of their populace to introduce laws and other technology that facilitate mass surveillance of the citizenry.
Contents
Exploitation for political purposes
The so-called "terrorist threat" is used to attempt to justify unrelated policies or promote enemy images.
Blaming Moscow
The late 1970s saw Israel and the US try to tie "terrorism" to the wider Cold War; the 1979 JCIT promoted the unsourced narrative that the USSR was a big backer of "terrorism", but was silent about the ongoing US export of weapons, explosives and training in bomb making in the Arms For Libya weapon deal.
Blaming Libya
The series of Arms For Libya deals came to a sudden halt with the 1982 arrest of US Deep state operative Edwin Wilson. The 1986 Bilderberg discussed "terrorism:" and contained the claim from an unnamed US speaker that "Libya is the principal sponsor of terrorism. It finances terrorist acts, it trains terrorist groups, it supplies arms, ammunition, passports and other documents to terrorists, and it uses its embassies, so-called peoples' bureaus, as weapons store-houses and sanctuaries for terrorists. Recently, Libya has been escalating its involvement in terrorism."[1]
Cold War II?

The Integrity Initiative is a UK deep state group attempting to stir up Russophobia to create another cold war. A document from Integrity Initiative/Leak/4 revives the doctrine that "terrorism" is coordinated from Moscow:
“It is critical to understand that the threat from groups historically seen as direct sponsors of terrorism such as ISIS/Daesh and the coordinated state efforts from Russia in recent years are linked.”
Anonymous (6 August 2018) [2]
Selected Examples
JFK/Assassination
After the Assassination of John F. Kennedy, surveillance was increased[How?], notwithstanding the claim by the Warren Commission that the perpetrator had acted alone.

9-11
- Full article:
The Patriot Act empowered the FBI to install the online mass surveillance system known as CARNIVORE (later as DCS 1000) at all ISPs.
2001 Anthrax attacks
After the 2001 Anthrax Attacks the United States Postal Service instigated the Mail Isolation Control and Tracking Program. This was hidden from the public for 12 years until cited by the FBI in its investigation of April 2013 ricin letters. Under the program, the US Postal Service computers photograph the exterior of every piece of paper mail that is processed in the United States — about 160 billion pieces in 2012. These images are kept indefinitely so that mail correspondence can be the can retroactively tracked at the request of law enforcement.
2002

- Full article: 2002 Bali bombings
On 12 October 2002, two bombs were detonated in a tourist area in Bali, Indonesia. 202 people were killed, mostly tourists from Australia or Europe. The Australian Government promptly introduced laws that required all ISPs in Australia to collect and monitor the data passing through their servers. Meanwhile, in the Telecommunications Interception Legislation Amendment Bill of 2002 it granted its agencies powers to intercept and read email, SMS and voice-mail messages without a warrant.
2005 London Bombings
After 9/11, John Ashcroft granted the FBI the authority to gather information on the Internet users outside official investigations and to initiate online surveillance on the basis of a priori suspicion. Originally passed as a temporary law, this Act was made permanent in the aftermath of the 2005 London bombings.
