LESSON 1
PLAN OPERATIONS TO CONTROL A CIVIL DISTURBANCE
INTRODUCTION
Why have campus disorders and urban economic disturbances created so many control problems for both college administrators and various government agencies? Why have seemingly minor incidents increased into civil disorder and violence before police and other government officials could react? The answer to the above questions and many other problems surrounding confrontations may well be the lack of thorough planning and training. If your personnel are not trained or if adequate plans have not been made, your control forces cannot be relied upon to react properly. We cannot predict the exact time or place disorders will occur but we can determine those planning considerations necessary to manage and effectively control these disorders.

Cyberwar, Anyone?January 2008 - By Col. Alan D. Campen, USAF (Ret.)
“One if by land, and two if by sea,” but what if by cyberspace?
Having long relied upon military prowess and diplomatic skills to project and protect its interests on the seas, on land and in aerospace, the United States now is in conflict with stateless entities seeking hearts and minds, not land or treasure. It is a global contest of words and images, waged on a battlefield called cyberspace where rules of engagement that govern traditional conflict don’t apply and plans for a multiagency effort to protect the information infrastructure have not yet been adopted.
Should we call this struggle a war? If so, what laws and rules govern conduct? How serious is the threat of malicious intrusions into—and manipulation of—information systems, and can the vulnerabilities, particularly in the Internet, be sufficiently reduced? Should we respond to these intrusions in kind, and if so, by which agencies and by what means? And what is the role of U.S. armed forces in a battle of words? Recent events have converged to bring the subject of network vulnerability, threats, risks and responses to the fore. ( read more at http://www.afcea.org/signal/articles/anmviewer.asp?a=1452&print=yes
