Book Description
U.S. policy and guidelines to combat terrorism call for robust, tailored and rapidly deployable interagency teams to conduct well-coordinated and highly integrated operations. Fed. agencies enhance their ability to respond to terrorist incidents by conducting exercises that train key personnel and test response plans. GAO briefed Congress on its analysis of fed. couterterrorist exercises that had been gathered in producing a Feb. 1999 classified report. This report summarizes the contents of those briefings. The objective was to determine the numbers, types, scenarios, and participants involved in Fed. counterterrorism exercises conducted from 1995 to 1998.

Pages : 360
Book Description
What can we do to protect ourselves from a terrorist attack, and how can communities respond most effectively when the unthinkable happens? The next large-scale terrorist attack on the United States could be carried out using any number of agents and delivery methods, including anthrax, smallpox, the water system, the agriculture industry; threats to bridges, tunnels, trains, airlines, and other transportation systems; suicide bombings in crowded cities, convention centers, and shopping malls; the possibilities are many, but not endless. Local preparation is critical. Until now, scant attention has been paid to the role of communities in preparing for and responding to terrorism. This invaluable set covers chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, and explosive scenarios. Throughout, the focus is on community preparedness and response. Volume I, The Terrorist Threat and Community Response, focuses on local, state, regional and federal coordination of efforts and interaction.

Final Report of the Task Force on Combating Terrorist and Foreign Fighter Travel
Author: Homeland Security CommitteePublisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1510712429
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 168
Book Description
The report addresses the urgent and growing threat of terrorist travel by Americans to Syria and Iraq. Despite the government’s efforts to control this travel, hundreds of Americans have attempted to reach the conflict zones to join the jihadists. Using numerous briefings, interviews, site visits, and document analysis, the Task Force makes thirty-two key findings dealing with government strategy, identification of terrorists, and disruption of foreign fighter travel, including: Key Finding 1: The United States lacks a comprehensive strategy for combating terrorist and foreign fighter travel. Key Finding 14: State and local law enforcement personnel continue to express concern that they are not provided with the appropriate security clearances to assist with counterterrorism challenges. Key Finding 25: “Broken travel” and other evasive tactics are making it harder to track foreign fighters. Key Finding 29: Gaping security weaknesses overseas—especially in Europe—are putting the U.S. homeland in danger by making it easier for aspiring foreign fighters to migrate to terrorist hotspots and for jihadists to return to the West. Introductory remarks by security experts accompany the text and place these findings and recommendations in their proper context, explaining the critical need for effective strategy in combating terrorist travel from the United States.
