Anti terrorism and counter terrorism are often used interchangeably and even when defined separately, the distinctions are often blurred. Anti terrorism is defined however as those measures, usually passive, that are meant to reduce the vulnerabilities to the public, their families, and communities to terrorist acts. Counter terrorism refers to offensive measures taken to respond to terrorist acts to include the gathering of information and threat analysis in support of these measures. With that in mind, your role in the war on terror is both anti terrorism and counter terrorism related. We need to create an environment of “watchful alertness” to send the signal of “not in my community”. That is anti terrorism. We also need to provide information to the police when we see something suspicious. That is counter terrorism.
