But Frank Cilluffo, director of the Homeland Security Policy Institute at George Washington University, said it makes sense to insert "uncertainty and randomness into the system so we can't let the adversary game the system."
Anyone with an understanding of security measures related to personal safety and protection of infrastructure will tell you that establishing predictable patterns in a security operation is one of the worst things you can do.
We either adapt to our times or we perish, is that factored in as well?
You cnan drag experts into this all you want, I am not sold. Thanks.
PS .. I do have a bit of experience in the security arena as well, of which I am not free to divulge.
Thanks for the comments , btw, I am not trying to batter anyone into submission in order to win the arguments at hand, only to get folks to be a bit more critical in their thinking on both sides of the issue, if you will.
I would pose a question, If FDR or Lincoln (or Jefferson or Teddy R, for that matter)were presented with the same situation, what would they have done or how would they proceed? Do we not face threats that if unaddressed, would eventually imperil all of us.
One of my beliefs is we have been to insulated from the real threats posed and already countered for the most part tho some have been revealed, others not.
I realize the times are supposedly different, but are they really?
