Acronyms and initialisms are abbreviations such as NATO, laser or DNA, written as the initial letter or letters of words, and pronounced based on this abbreviated written form.
Acronyms and initialisms often occur in jargon or as names of organizations because they often serve as abbreviations of long terms that are frequently referenced, so a shortened form is acronym dictionary desirable.
Sometimes these acronyms made sense but most of the time, they were words incongruously crammed together for the mere purpose of obtaining a catchy acronym, traditionally a heroic sounding one for the good guys and an appropriately menacing one for the bad guys.

It may well be that the dictatorships of the world with their high priority attached to the police function in an attempt to limit the freedoms of individual citizens may not be aberrations of civilized man but one of the watermarks of the 20th century.
Finally, the hearings must define the Army's authority to monitor civilian politics in light of such principles as the civilian control of the military, state and civilian primacy in law enforcement, the decentralization of intelligence duties, and obedience to the constitutional scheme of the separate branches of government sharing policy-making powers.
