Family Security Matters » Publications » Time to Replace Napolitano: "Last March, our newly installed Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano explained, in an interview with German magazine Der Spiegel, her vision for fighting what was formerly known as terrorism.

By calling these now 'man-caused disasters,' she explained, we would 'move away from the politics of fear toward a policy of being prepared for all risks that can occur.'

'Our policies will be guided by authoritative information. We also have assets at our disposal now that we did not have prior to 9/11. For example, we are much better able to keep track of travelers coming into the U.S. than we were before. The third thing is to work with our international partners and allies to make sure that we are getting information and sharing information in an appropriate and real-time fashion.'

Yikes."
