Planning for Terrorists week 4 discussion 2

Planning for Terrorists week 4 discussion 2

 

When we speak of potential targets for terrorism, we are most concerned about critical infrastructure (those services that we need to function as a society, such as utilities and emergency services).  Additionally, certain sites of historical and symbolic significance are also concerns.  Politics can play a role in determining these types of sites.  Fusion centers can help in predicting potential terrorist targets.  This FEMA document looks at different types of threats, as well as measures that can be undertaken to protect these areas:  http://1.usa.gov/1hN9NAm

Is it more important to protect targets, or to focus upon the individuals who might perpetrate terrorism?

Terrorism
Throughout human history, there have been many threats to the security of nations. These threats have brought about
large-scale losses of life, the destruction of property, widespread illness and injury, the displacement of large numbers of
people, and devastating economic loss.
Recent technological advances and ongoing international political unrest are components of the increased risk to national
security.
Use Part 4 to learn what actions to include in your family disaster plan to prepare for and respond to terrorist threats.
When you complete Part 4, you will be able to:
• Recognize important terms.
• Take protective measures for terror
ist threats.
• Know what actions to take if an event occurs.
• Identify resources for more information about terror
ist threats.

Terrorism is the use of force or violence against persons or property in violation of
the criminal laws of the United States for purposes of intimidation, coercion, or
ransom. Terrorists often use threats to:
• Create fear among the public.
• Try to convince citizens that their government is powerless to prevent
terrorism.
• Get immediate publicity for their causes.
Acts of terrorism include threats of terrorism; assassinations; kidnappings; hijack-
ings; bomb scares and bombings; cyber attacks (computer-based); and the use of
chemical, biological, nuclear and radiological weapons.
High-risk targets for acts of terrorism include military and civilian government
facilities, international airports, large cities, and high-profi
le landmarks. Terror-
ists might also target large public gatherings, water and food supplies, utilities,
and corporate centers. Further, terrorists are capable of spreading fear by sending
explosives or chemical and biological agents through the mail.
Within the immediate area of a terrorist event, you would need to rely on police,
fi
re, and other offi
cials for instructions. However, you can prepare in much the
same way you would prepare for other crisis events.
The following are general guidelines:
• Be aware of your surroundings.
• Move or leave if you feel uncomfortable or if something does not seem right.
• Take precautions when traveling. Be aware of conspicuous or unusual behav-
ior. Do not accept packages from strangers. Do not leave luggage unattended.
You should promptly report unusual behavior, suspicious or unattended pack-
ages, and strange devices to the police or security personnel.
• Learn where emergency exits are located in buildings you frequent. Plan how
to get out in the event of an emergency.
• Be prepared to do without services you normally depend on—electricity,
telephone, natural gas, gasoline pumps, cash registers, ATMs, and Internet
transactions.
