THE SEVEN SIGNS OF TERRORISM

 1.  Surveilance:
     Someone recording or monitoring activities. This may include the use of cameras (either stillor video),
     note taking, drawing diagrams, annotating on maps, or using binoculars or other vision-enhancing devices.

2.  Elicitations:
     people or organizations attempting to gain information about military operations, capabilities, or people.
     Elicitation attempts may be made by mail, fax, telephone, or in person.

3.  Tests of security:
     Any any attempts to measure reaction times to security breaches or to penetrate physical security barriers
     or procedures in order to assess strengths and weaknesses.

4.  Acquiring supplies:
     Purchasing or stealing explosives, weapons, ammunition, etc. Also includes acquiring military uniforms,
     decals, flight manuals, passes or badges (or the equiptment to manufacture such items) or any other
     controlled items.

5.  Suspicious persons out of place:
     People who don't seem to belong in the workplace, neighborhood, business establishment, or anywhere
     else. Includes suspicious border crossings and stowaways aboard ship or people jumping ship in port.

6. Dry run/trial Run:
    Putting people in position and moving them around according to their plan without actually committing  
    the terrorist act. This is especially true when planning a kidnapping, but it can also pertain to bombings.
    An element of this activity could also include mapping out routes and determining the timing of traffic
    lights and flow.

7. Deploying assets:
    People and supplies getting into position to commit the act. This is a person's last chance to alert
    authorities before the terrorist act occurs.
