Book Homeland Security

    Book Details:
  • Author : Michael Chertoff
  • Publisher : University of Pennsylvania Press
  • Release : 2011-11-29
  • ISBN : 081220588X
  • Pages : 217 pages

Download or read book Homeland Security written by Michael Chertoff and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2011-11-29 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2003, the President and the U.S. Congress established the Department of Homeland Security. From the beginning, its mission was clear: prevent terrorist attacks, protect against threats to America's safety and security, and prepare the nation to respond effectively to disasters, both natural and man-made. This monumental mission demands a comprehensive strategy. It also requires a crystal-clear explanation of that strategy to Americans and their allies worldwide. In a revealing new book, Homeland Security: Assessing the First Five Years, Michael Chertoff provides that explanation. In a refreshingly candid and engaging manner, America's former homeland security secretary depicts the department's long-term approach, what it has achieved, and what it has yet to do. The strategy begins with the threats America faces, from terrorist groups like al Qaeda to hurricanes like Ike or Gustav. "Once these threats are identified," Chertoff writes, "we can confront them, using every tool at our disposal. We can stop terrorists from entering the country, and discourage people from embracing terrorism by combating its lethal ideology. We can protect our critical assets and reduce our vulnerabilities to natural disasters. We can plan and prepare for emergencies and respond in a way that minimizes the consequences. And we can work closely with our allies abroad to reduce the risk of future disasters." In each of these areas, Chertoff informs the reader what the nation has done and what it still must do to secure its future. How well has this strategy fared in a post-9/11 world? Since that fateful day, there have been no global terror attacks on American soil. Yet in the face of continued dangers, Michael Chertoff warns repeatedly against complacency. He urges America and its leaders to strengthen their resolve, stay the course, and build creatively on past successes.

Book Statement for Record Senate Homeland Security and Government Affairs Committee  Nine Years After 9 11  Confronting the Terrorist Threat to the Homeland

Download or read book Statement for Record Senate Homeland Security and Government Affairs Committee Nine Years After 9 11 Confronting the Terrorist Threat to the Homeland written by and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 11 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chairman Lieberman, Ranking Member Collins, distinguished Members of the Committee, thank you for the opportunity today to discuss the current state of the terrorist threat to the Homeland and the U.S. Government's efforts to address the threat. I am pleased to join Secretary of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano and Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Robert Mueller--two of the National Counterterrorism Center's (NCTC) closest and most critical partners. Nature of the Terrorist Threat During the past year our nation has dealt with the most significant developments in the terrorist threat to the Homeland since 9/11. The three attempted Homeland attacks during the past year from overseas-based groups--including Pakistan-based al-Qa'ida's plan to attack the New York City subway one year ago, its regional affiliate al-Qa'ida in the Arabian Peninsula's (or AQAP's) attempt to blow up an airliner over Detroit last Christmas, and al-Qa'ida's closest ally Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan's (or TTP's) attempt to bomb Times Square in May--in addition to two lone actor attacks conducted by homegrown extremists Carlos Bledsoe and Nidal Hassan, surpassed the number and pace of attempted attacks during any year since 9/11. The range of al-Qa'ida core, affiliated, allied, and inspired US citizens and residents plotting against the Homeland during the past year suggests the threat against the West has become more complex and underscores the challenges of identifying and countering a more diverse array of Homeland plotting.
