The United States strategy for Homeland Security

The United States National Strategy for Homeland Security is a formal government response to the events of September 11, 2001 at the Pentagon and World Trade Center. The document issued by President George W. Bush outlines the overall strategic considerations for cooperation between the federal government, states, private enterprises, and ordinary citizens in anticipating future terrorism attacks as well as natural disasters and other incidents of national significance. The National Response Framework is the part of the homeland security national strategy that is a Comprehensive Emergency Management guideline for implementing scalable responses to disasters and other incidents of national significance. Homeland security requires a truly national effort, with shared goals and responsibilities for protecting and defending our homeland. The strategy for this document is to prevent and disrupt any form of terrorist attacks from happening to our country. Our former President Bush made this document to protect the American people from suffering any further pain from the attacks that September 11th caused. The document also protects any infrastructure from getting attacked like our bridges, skyscraper towers, oil refineries ect. If any incidents do occur this documentation will help our government to respond and recover. This document will also help us learn to prevent terrorist attacks from happening or even any other form or natural disaster.
