I'm a documented by federal case victim witness to Iranian state sponsored terrorism. I hate terrorists, but I also have extreme civil rights violations, ( I've been strung out as bait for 18 years, family members are missing, dead, been subjected to international abductions, my career as a ICU/ER Registered Nurse was sabotaged and I have been trafficked and circumstantially forced into "adult entertainment," to survive -- a lot of military officials have seen my kind of case (corruption in civilian law enforcement/intel agencies-CIA). With that said, In the short term I was looking for perspectives that might be in-line with a legal argument I want to make in order to get restitution under the U.S. Victims of State Sponsored Terrorism Fund (www.usvsst.com), which is the main reason I took this course right now. I was able to find such arguments within your course - THANK YOU. I only have one suggestion. Some of the questions and the answers were not clear and I would suggest re-writing them. Otherwise, the course was excellent, well thought out, well planned and was delivered perfectly. I will definitely take more of your courses and recommend them.

Great course with densely packed information. Also I think I fell in love with the lady presenting me the course in the beginning.

The Questions in this course are vague at best, they do not reeinforce the knowledge in any way. I take plenty of notes,listen & read the text, only for a question that just says Terrorism? ask questions that are actual questions for example "what is terrorism?" not here's some random half assed written question that isn't relevant or trying to help you understand this very complex topic, rather it seems it's just trying to trip you up.....quite pissed too be honest.I would not recommend this course.

The course is good but it is also full of inaccuracies, western lies and propaganda. It fails to mention US and israeli support for ISIS against the lawful Syrian government of Dr. Bashar Al-Assad, Hezbollah's lack of aggression toward anyone not threatening Lebanon or it's allies, false flag attacks like Operation Suzanna and 9/11 and cointrolled opposition like Hamas. It also repeats the lies that Hezbollah, Iran and North Korea are supporters of terrorism. Those countroes are guilty of sovereignty. They have publicly owned central banks like Venezuela. They are not in debt to private financiers like the US and UK. North Korea also produces opium that competes with CIA/Afghan opium. Al Qaeda did not side with Hezbollah in Lebanon. They are as opposite as it is possible to be. Hamas was supported by israel as controlled oppostion as an alternative to the PLO. The Catholic half of Ireland is pro Great Britain? NO. They are certainly not. ----------------------- CONCERNING HEZBOLLAH AND LEBANON When you break in to someone's house and they shoot you don't get to complain or accuse them of terrorism. The US was occupying Lebanon and shelling it's coast in 1983 at the time of the attacks you mentioned. Whoever carried out those attacks was retaliating against the reagan regime. Hezbollah wasn't even founded until 1985. Hezbollah defends Lebanon and it's allies against the likes of western backed terrorists like ISIS. Hezbollah helped destroy ISIS in Syria while the US warned them of bombing raids ahead of time to give them a chance to evacuate. Hezbollah only attacks israel when israel attacks Lebanon. When israel pulled it's forces out of Lebanon Hezbollah stopped shooting at the israeli occupiers. Hezbollah protects Christians and Jews in all countries. Hezbollah: Protector of Christians and Jews... https://docs.google.com/document/d/1OVcQg2brxxytzf7xuTV53VZdrjYk7j_vsLk756LCmE0/ ----------------------- CONCERNING SYRIA The Assad administration is the legitimate, lawful, democratically elected government of Syria. The SDF and FSA are western backed terrorist being paid to maintain a conflict to prevent Iran from selling natgas to Europe via a proposed pipeline through Syria to the Mediterranean. THE U.S. GOVT IS SUPPORTING ISIL WHY ISIL IS AN AMERICAN PROXY https://docs.google.com/document/d/1muNXrnlXnQP05rBEb8StUZQcmK1WWzZch8dWgvtBymE/ EVEN MORE ON SYRIA 2018 https://docs.google.com/document/d/1jZDVV7ELcKAQM8ERb4ymPGTbx5tItIjD2CeceIwnBMQ/ ----------------------- CONCERNING ISRAEL Israel's agents infest our government and influence policy that favors them to our detriment. Israel is a parasite to the US. AIPAC bribes and blackmails politicians into doing their will. The people of these organizations enjoy the benefits of living in the US but are loyal to israel. Israel. Attacked the USS Liberty. Poisoned Bishop Atallah Hanna, Greek Orthodox bishop of Jerusalem, Palestine. He survived. Supplied weapons to Argentina during the Falklands war. Sends drones to azerbaijan to be used to attack Christian Armenia. Secret nuclear program that doesn't comply with the IAEA. Assassinated Folke Bernadotte. The Lavon Affair. Nuclear material in it’s New York embassy. Israeli Wermacht Provides air support to ISIL in Syria. Brutal treatment of Palestinians. Liberal abortion policy. Don't come at me with figures about the amount of money they receive from the US. Numbers can be spun to look good or bad. I'm not talking about that. It needs to stop but that is not the main issue.

I felt the material was biased. I would have preferred a more factual/statistic approach rather than examples that were opinion based. Several quiz answers did not match the information on the PowerPoints. 31 quizzes for only 4 hours of content was a bit much. The words on the screen, did not match what the speaker was saying, so the student had to process two different strands of information simultaneously. I've taken several classes on counter terrorism, and I enjoyed the fact this speaker's voice was engaging and clear. The images were powerful. The topic important. Disappointed with the examples provided, but it was still an informative class.

Some things listed do not make sense cronologically, poor case studies, some things just don't add up or make sense
