Llad Phillips 1 Terrorism, Skyjacking & Embezzlement Foreign and Domestic

Llad Phillips 2 Points About Terrorism Definition: The killing and injuring of innocent civilians for political purposes The perceived threat from foreign terrorists to the USA (at home) is relatively new (since 9/11) Earlier skyjackings in the US were not by terrorists Terrorism has been a threat since World War II in Europe, much of it connected to the Middle East We can learn from comparing the US reaction to skyjacking, and attempts to control it

Llad Phillips 3 Post 9-11 Attack –what –how –where –when –why? Why don’t our enemies love us? Defense (focus) –what –how –where –when –why were we not prepared for the attack?

Llad Phillips 5 Why were we not Prepared? Theme #1: “Over there… “ “ Chorus Over there, over there, Send the word, send the word over there - That the Yanks are coming, The Yanks are coming, The drums rum-tumming Ev'rywhere. So prepare, say a pray'r, Send the word, send the word to beware. We'll be over, we're coming over, And we won't come back till it's over Over there.

Llad Phillips 9 Learning from History Skyjacking in the USA –first in the USA was 1961 –in contrast to skyjackings abroad, at most one skyjacking at home was, maybe, politically motivated by a someone with connections to the Balkans

Llad Phillips 10 Learning from Economics Thwarting embezzlement –inspection, I. E. audit

38 Borch Model of Inspection Two actors –employee(embezzler) & firm –skyjacker & airport security Two sets of values or payoffs to the outcomes No dominant strategy for either actor Need to keep your adversary guessing Embezzler’s expected outcome: break even Firm’s expected outcome: dead-weight cost of inspection

Llad Phillips 42 Circular Contest Best outcome for the employee –embezzle and no audit Best outcome for the firm –no embezzling and no audit Worst outcome for the employee –embezzle and get audited Worst outcome for the firm –don’t audit and get embezzled

Llad Phillips 48 Firm Can Choose A Probability Of Audit Between 0 and 1 If P A = 1, then employee loses - If P A = 0, then employee gains G How about a probability between 0 and 1 like G/( + G)
