Construct a response that provides the following related to both homeland security and homeland defense:
- Primary missions, tasks, responsibilities, operations, etc. for:
- Homeland Security and
- Homeland Defense.
- Highlight those areas that are shared between the two (what overlaps between HLS and HLD?)
- Lastly, recommend a definition for homeland security.
Using
the overarching themes of the National Security Strategy from 2017,
provide your own recommendation for new National Strategy for
Counterterrorism (it must be nested under the NSS according to the
principle of strategic hierarchy). What key elements and focus areas
would you suggest for the part of a new CT strategy that is domestic
focused (homeland security, not overseas), and make sure to use the
Ends, Ways, and Means strategy framework.
Note:
You should be aware of the fact that “homeland security” is made up of
much more than just DHS. That agency is only one part of a larger Homeland Security Enterprise that
includes [DHS] Departmental leaders and components [the 7 field
agencies including USCG, CBP, ICE, USSS, etc], state, local, tribal,
territorial and private sector partners and others. Also remember there
are many other essential federal agencies that play a role in HLS, such
as the very important DOJ where the FBI is the lead agency for
countering terrorism in the US (not DHS).
