ecurity measures have been escalated and entail efforts by state, local and transportation officials to provide K9 bomb detection teams, spot testing, increased law enforcement, police, added barriers for perimeters, extra intrusion detection, increased surveillance and additional inspection of trash receptacles and other storage areas.
Secretary Chertoff
reminds the public to continue using the transportation system, but to do so with a heightened awareness of their surroundings, to report any unusual activity and with the knowledge that security measures are in place and have been for some time now, recently elevated within the transit system due to the tragic events in Britain.
The pubic will be provided with ongoing updates as intelligence streams and information out of London is reviewed. Chertoff reminds the nation that Terrorists may bomb and attack and attempt to use weapons of fear to shake the confidence and will of free nations and free people, but they will not succeed. We have a more powerful arsenal, it includes our resolution and our resilience, an unyielding determination to do what we can and must to keep our citizens and our allies safe, to track down those who perpetrate incidents like this and to bring them to justice.
When asked about the potential impact of the London attacks on the U.S. security policy Chertoff revealed that the Country’s security policy has been reviewed extensively in .comprehensive manner over the past few months and that policy proposals will soon follow to ensure that infrastructure protection is optimized, but that policy decision will not be made based upon a single event.
The priority at this time appears to entail the identification of the party responsible for the attacks, understanding the dimensions of these acts and determination of any potential lessons or intelligence that may be extracted from this incident. Overall, as Chertoff described, This is an occasion for sympathy and solidarity for our allies over in Britain, a renewal of our determination to keep our country safe and a measured and appropriate response in terms of dealing with what has happened overseas.
