This book was released on 2007-12-10 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Combating Weapons of Mass Destruction (CWMD) Joint Integrating Concept (JIC) describes how a Joint Force Commander (JFC) with responsibility for a Joint Operations Area (JOA) will conduct future (2015-2027) operations to combat WMD development, proliferation, acquisition and employment. The JFC will employ capabilities enabling CWMD operations within a Joint, Interagency (IA), and Multinational context integrated with other key elements of national power: Diplomatic, Information, Military, Economic, Financial, Intelligence, and Law Enforcement (DIMEFIL) 1. This broad scoped concept establishes a coherent framework to * Synchronize execution of CWMD missions and strategic enablers against WMD network functions: Finance, Science and Technology, Logistics, Weapons Delivery, Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance, Command and Control * Support Capabilities Based Assessments (CBAs) that will identify capability gaps, shortfalls, and overmatch * Facilitate understanding of fluid CWMD mission relationships and support tradeoff analysis among the capabilities and across the mission areas and enablers * Inform the efforts of Combatant Commanders (CCDRs) and others to improve current CWMD capabilities when potential near-term solutions are identified. This JIC addresses the National Security Strategy essential task, "Prevent our enemies from threatening us, our allies, and our friends with weapons of mass destruction." It is consistent with strategic guidance and addresses integrated operations required to accomplish the endstates articulated in the National Military Strategy to Combat Weapons of Mass Destruction (NMS-CWMD).

Book excerpt: This publication, “Combating Weapons of Mass Destruction,” (Joint Publication 3-40), provides fundamental principles and guidance for combating weapons of mass destruction (CWMD) and their mean of delivery. Combating weapons of mass destruction (CWMD) and their means of delivery is one of the greatest challenges the United States (US) faces. Weapons of mass destruction (WMD) have the potential to severely disrupt and damage the United States, it forces, allies, multinational partners, and other friendly nations. It is important for commanders and their staffs to keep the perspective that WMD is not an adversary, but a capability an adversary can use. Adversaries may use WMD as a tool to inflict casualties on civilian populations, degrade the instruments of our national power, or to counter US military superiority. CWMD is a global mission crossing geographic areas of responsibility (AORs) boundaries, requires an integrate and synchronized effort, and requires numerous interagency and multinational partner for effective mission accomplishment. Rather than a discrete, specialized mission, CWMD requires a continuous campaign conducted and supported by the entire United States Government. CWMD actions are conducted across the range of military operations and DOD will often be acting in support of another lead agency, or even supporting a multinational effort. This publication has been prepared under the direction of the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. It sets forth CWMD doctrine to govern the activities and performance of the Armed Forces of the United States in joint operations and provides the doctrinal basis for interagency coordination and for US military involvement in multinational operations. It provides military guidance for the exercise of authority by combatant commanders and other joint force commanders (JFCs) and prescribes joint doctrine for operations. It provides military guidance for use by the Armed Forces in preparing their appropriate plans. It is not the intent of this publication to restrict the authority of the JFC from task organizing the force and executing the mission in a manner the JFC deems most appropriate to ensure unity of effort in the accomplishment of the overall objective. Joint doctrine established in this publication applies to the Joint Staff, commanders of combatant commands, subunified commands, joint task forces, subordinate components of these commands, and the Services. The guidance in this publication is authoritative; as such, this doctrine will be followed except when, in the judgment of the commander, exceptional circumstances dictate otherwise. If conflicts arise between the contents of this publication and the contents of Service publications, this publication will take precedence unless the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, normally in coordination with the other members of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, has provided more current and specific guidance. Commanders of forces operating as part of a multinational (alliance or coalition) military command should follow multinational doctrine and procedures ratified by the United States. For doctrine and procedures not ratified by the United States, commanders should evaluate and follow the multinational command's doctrine and procedures, where applicable and consistent with US law, regulations, and doctrine.

Adversaries may use WMD as a tool to inflict casualties on civilian populations, degrade the instruments of our national power, or to counter US military superiority. CWMD is a global mission crossing geographic areas of responsibility (AORs) boundaries, requires an integrated and synchronized effort, and requires numerous interagency and multinational partners for effective mission accomplishment. Rather than a discrete, specialized mission, CWMD requires a continuous campaign conducted and supported by the entire United States Government (USG). CWMD actions are conducted across the range of military operations and DOD will often be acting in support of another lead agency, or even supporting a multinational effort. The National Security Strategy (NSS) of the United States of America identifies as an essential task to prevent our enemies from threatening us, our allies, and our friends with weapons of mass destruction for ensuring national security. The United States advances this strategy through strengthened alliances, the establishment of new partnerships, proactive counterproliferation (CP) efforts, modern technologies, and increased emphasis on intelligence collection and analysis. The National Strategy to Combat Weapons of Mass Destruction (NS-CWMD) provides additional guidance concerning CWMD: nonproliferation (NP), CP, and WMD consequence management (CM), as highlighted in the NSS, and introduces the construct of the three pillars which provides a common framework for the interagency conduct of CWMD activities. The National Military Strategy to Combat Weapons of Mass Destruction (NMS-CWMD) provides Department of Defense (DOD) components with guidance and a strategic framework for CWMD. The NMS-CWMD uses an ends, ways, and means approach to planning, executing, resourcing, and emphasizes those CWMD missions in which the military plays a prominent role. It defines strategic end states, strategic enablers, military strategic objectives, and eight military mission areas (MMAs) the Armed Forces of the United States may be called upon to perform.
Download or read book Countering Weapons of Mass Destruction written by Albert J. Mauroni and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2016-10-12 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Cold War phrase “weapons of mass destruction” continues to be used despite significant changes in international political cultures, military concepts of operation, and technology advances. Today, the term “weapons of mass destruction” (WMD) is used to address many things, from grams of ricin and barrels of industrial chemicals to megaton nuclear weapons. As a direct result of the decision to refer to all nuclear, biological, and chemical (NBC) weapons as well as biological, chemical and radiological (CBR) hazards as “WMD,” we have lost the ability to accurately develop, assess, and discuss policy concerns relating to the contemporary use of unconventional weapons on the battlefield and within the homeland. This book uses a public policy framework to examine how the U.S. government, and in particular the U.S. military, should address the potential use of unconventional weapons in the 21st century. It defines the problem, identifies the policy actors and reviews policy options. It discusses past policy efforts before offering a critical review of current strategies and how WMD issues are integrated into the current military Joint Operating Concepts (deterrence, cooperative security, major combat operations, irregular warfare, stability, and homeland security), and proposes new national framework for countering WMD. The aim is to answer such questions as what does counterproliferation mean and whether the U.S. government is adequately prepared to protect U.S. citizens and its armed forces from adversaries developing unconventional weapons.

This book was released on 2006-02-13 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The National Military Strategy (NMS) to Combat Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD) is derived from the Department of Defense's (DOD) mission to dissuade, deter and defeat those who seek to harm the United States, its allies, and partners through WMD use or threat of use and, if attacked, to mitigate the effects and restore deterrence. Its purpose is to provide DOD Components guidance and a strategic framework for combating WMD. The strategy uses an "ends, ways, means" approach to planning, executing and resourcing, and emphasizes those combating WMD missions in which the military plays a prominent role. Guiding Principles Six guiding principles underpin the National Military Strategy to Combat WMD. These principles should be used as a foundation for the development of all combating WMD concepts of operations and plans. Active, Layered, Defense-in-Depth. In order to protect the United States and defeat aggressors, the U.S. Armed Forces must establish an active defense. The U.S. Armed Forces will focus military planning, posture, operations, and capabilities, in accordance with mission essential tasks, on the active, forward and layered defense of our nation, our allies, partners, and interests. Situational Awareness and Integrated Command and Control. The decision to employ specialized combating WMD capabilities for simultaneous operations demands a highly flexible and adaptive command and control process informed by timely, credible, and actionable intelligence. Global Force Management. Any combating WMD capabilities we develop in the future must be visible to combatant command planners and include responsive and agile forces that can be rapidly task organized and equipped to accomplish assigned missions. Capabilities-Based Planning. We must plan for and develop capabilities that could be employed against a range of threats and associated capabilities while balancing the requirements for targeted strategies against known proliferators. Effects-Based Approach. We will use an effects-based approach in planning, execution, and assessments to achieve efficient results and reduce risk to mission and campaign objectives, as well as to our combating WMD-related resources. Assurance. Where possible, we will encourage action by like-minded States, work with our international allies, partners, and operate through regional States to combat WMD actively.

Download or read book Weapons of Mass Destruction and US Foreign Policy written by Michelle Bentley and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-03-14 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the use of concepts – specifically ‘weapons of mass destruction’ (WMD) – in US foreign policy discourse. Current analysis of WMD definition has made headway into identifying the repercussions that the conceptual conflation of such diverse weapons – typically understood as a reference to nuclear, biological and chemical weapons – has for international security. While the concept assumes these weapons are ‘equal’, the vast disparity between them, and their disparity from the conventional weapons from which they are supposedly distinct, means this approach is seen as unreflective of reality, causing miscalculations in security policy. Not least, this has highlighted that the issue of WMD definition is a priority concern where this has direct implications for strategy. In contrast, Weapons of Mass Destruction and US Foreign Policy argues that this approach does not accurately portray conceptual meaning, particularly where it overlooks how political language is constructed. In demonstrating this, the book presents a conceptual history of WMD detailing how this has been defined and used since its emergence into political discourse c.1945. Specifically, it argues that definition is an inherently strategic act; policymakers have deliberately included (or excluded) certain weapons and threats from the classification in order to shape foreign policy dialogues. As such, understanding the WMD concept is not a search for a single interpretation, but an analysis that seeks to comprehend what the concept means at any given time, especially where this relates to the political circumstances of its use. By identifying a variety of ways in which WMD has been defined, the book constructs a dynamic view of conceptual meaning that recognises and, more importantly explains, the inherent diversity in interpretation as the consequence of epistemic and institutional context and the strategic response of policymakers. This book will be of much interest to students of Weapons of Mass Destruction, US foreign and security policy, security studies, political narratives and IR.

Why buy a book you can download for free? We print the paperback book so you don't have to. First you gotta find a good clean (legible) copy and make sure it's the latest version (not always easy). Some documents found on the web are missing some pages or the image quality is so poor, they are difficult to read. If you find a good copy, you could print it using a network printer you share with 100 other people (typically its either out of paper or toner). If it's just a 10-page document, no problem, but if it's 250-pages, you will need to punch 3 holes in all those pages and put it in a 3-ring binder. Takes at least an hour. It's much more cost-effective to just order the bound paperback from Amazon.com This book includes original commentary which is copyright material. Note that government documents are in the public domain. We print these paperbacks as a service so you don't have to. The books are compact, tightly-bound paperback, full-size (8 1/2 by 11 inches), with large text and glossy covers. 4th Watch Publishing Co. is a HUBZONE SDVOSB. https: //usgovpub.com
