it was about 9/11, that is why I did not spend much time addressing 93 WTC bombing.

From a SOP standpoint though it was a mess. The various agencies kept bumping heads in trying to figure out what to do in response. In the end all we ended up doing is just arresting the people we found to be involved, mostly because you had 3 or 4 SOP coming in conflict with each other and nothing could get done.

That is the point of DHS is to bring all these under one, and make it more overall unified so that when something like a terror attack comes up you do not have 4 agencies trying to employ their own SOP, rather you just have 4 agencies working together to sort through a single SOP.

There are potential disadvantages to this, which I also did not talk about, I'll address that in a later article.

gregh,

The article is extensive, informative, basically accurate and very well written.
