HEADNOTE
Ill winds have knocked national security agencies off balance.
IMAGE ILLUSTRATION 1SUICIDE BOMBERS COMPELLED BY APOCALYPTIC visions, waterfowl infected with deadly viruses, catastrophic weather, dirty bombs-unexpected factors threaten American security. We live in a world where terrorists intend to wield weapons of mass destruction, pathogens move at record speed and cataclysmic disasters disrupt vital food and energy supplies far beyond the communities they destroy. Disease, natural disasters and even terrorists are not new, of course. But the power to destroy and the ramifications of such destruction are far greater today in a global economy, where food is seldom produced locally, where a single satellite malfunction can disrupt worldwide financial transactions, and where multinational business interests can stymie national interests in managing a host of problems from disease quarantine to border security.
