From Pablo to Osama: Trafficking and Terrorist Networks, Government Bureaucracies, and Competitive Adaptation by Michael Kenney, 2008
From Pablo to Osama is a comparative study of Colombian drug-smuggling enterprises, terrorist networks (including al Qaeda), and the law enforcement agencies that seek to dismantle them.
The crackdown on Columbia University students by the NYPD was spearheaded by Rebecca Weiner, who is a faculty member of the school. Weiner, a Columbia professor, heads an NYPD intelligence division that operates an office in Tel Aviv.
Weiner attributed the need for the violent raid to the students' rhetoric.
