"Miami plans 'in-your-face' anti-terror effort"
November 29, 2005

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "MIAMI (AP) -- Miami police announced plans yesterday to thwart terrorists by staging random, "in-your-face" security operations at so-called "soft" targets, such as city buses and sports arenas.

The idea behind the "Miami Shield" program is to make such targets less attractive to terrorists and improve vigilance among citizens. Deputy Police Chief Frank Fernandez said al Qaeda and other terror groups carefully plot their attacks based in part on surveillance that identifies flaws and patterns in security.

Random, high-profile security operations will keep terrorists guessing about where police might be next, he said."
