In a Moment's Notice: Surge Capacity for Terrorist Bombings: Challenges and Proposed Solutions. March 2007.
- "Because many patients self-evacuate after a terrorist attack, and prehospital care may be difficult to coordinate, hospitals near the scene can expect to receive a large influx—or surge—of victims after a terrorist strike. This rapid surge of victims typically occurs within minutes, exemplified by the Madrid bombings where the closest hospital received 272 patients in 2.5 hours. Such a surge differs dramatically from the gradual influx of patients after an outbreak of infectious disease or an environmental emergency such as a heat wave, which can last several days to weeks afterwards."

From Madrid to London: Al-Qaeda Exports the War in Iraq to Europe. July 2005.
- The article examines the considerable similarities between the London and Madrid attacks, and concludes that the bombings were an attempt to bring the terrorist front from Iraq to "European soil." The document also analyzes the transformation from "sleeper cells" to informal groups advocating a global Jihadi movement and approach. The article likens the actors in the European attacks to those of other global acts of terrorism, and states that "the counter-terrorism effort in Europe should consist of social, cultural, and economic measures."
