      <title>Seeking Fair and Effective Administration of Immigration Laws</title>
      <link>http://webfeeds.brookings.edu/~r/BrookingsRSS/topics/homelandsecurity/~3/mMh_sNTkoW0/07_immigration_laws_wheeler.aspx</link>

Russell Wheeler has explained why crafting better policies for institutions most responsible for enforcing the laws fairly should be part of the broader immigration reform effort.&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/BrookingsRSS/topics/homelandsecurity/~4/mMh_sNTkoW0" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>

      <title>Toward a New Frontier Improving the U.S.-Canadian Border</title>
      <link>http://webfeeds.brookings.edu/~r/BrookingsRSS/topics/homelandsecurity/~3/jf78Sca-4x4/0713_canada_sands.aspx</link>
      <description>In an age of international terrorism and illegal immigration, a well-functioning U.S.-Canada border is vital for homeland security and also economic competitiveness. In a new report for the Metropolitan Policy Program, Chris Sands&amp;nbsp;analyzes the current policy process for the U.S.-Canada border and offers recommendations for improving border policy to enhance both trade and security.&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/BrookingsRSS/topics/homelandsecurity/~4/jf78Sca-4x4" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>

      <title>Preserving Our Institutions: The Continuity of the Presidency</title>
      <link>http://webfeeds.brookings.edu/~r/BrookingsRSS/topics/homelandsecurity/~3/5H4VtWCAyjM/06_continuity_of_government.aspx</link>
      <description>A new report by the AEI-Brookings Continuity of Government Commission examines vulnerabilities in the U.S. presidential succession. It has long been assumed that prospects for a smooth transfer of presidential power in the event of a terrorist attack are assured, as there is already a clear line of succession to the nation's highest office. However, as the report's authors point out, the existing presidential succession could be rendered useless by a catastrophic attack because everyone in line to succeed the president lives and works in Washington, D.C.&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/BrookingsRSS/topics/homelandsecurity/~4/5H4VtWCAyjM" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>

      <title>The United States and Canada: Toward a Better Border</title>
      <link>http://webfeeds.brookings.edu/~r/BrookingsRSS/topics/homelandsecurity/~3/8gzsRXP_Lcc/0527_us_canada.aspx</link>
      <description>New rules set to start on June 1 will require passports at the U.S.-Canada border. Many fear that the new travel initiative will cause economic damage on both sides of the border. With these concerns in mind, Brookings and the Canadian International Council sponsored a forum that featured Homeland Secretary Secretary Janet Napolitano.&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/BrookingsRSS/topics/homelandsecurity/~4/8gzsRXP_Lcc" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>

The nation remains involved in two of the longest conflicts of its history in Iraq and Afghanistan, with more than 4,000 lives lost over six years in Iraq and more than 600 lost over nearly eight years in Afghanistan. In this Foreign Policy Working paper Michael O'Hanlon examines the multi-facted "hard power" budget options moving forward.&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/BrookingsRSS/topics/homelandsecurity/~4/byB7v_lqv2Q" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>

      <description>Though substantial progress was made on the homeland security front by the Bush administration, Michael O'Hanlon writes that the list of vulnerabilities is still very long. Targets are numerous, but O'Hanlon notes many are hard to protect and preventing catastrophic attacks should be the primary goal.&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/BrookingsRSS/topics/homelandsecurity/~4/FkcZPlEbuPs" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>

Pascual believes the selections indicate Obama will take a twenty-first-century view toward national security: energy, power, economics, human rights, terrorism and poverty must be part of the agenda.&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/BrookingsRSS/topics/homelandsecurity/~4/brMugjkhFqo" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>

      <description>As the National Commission on the September 11, 2001 Terrorist Attacks emphasized, significant progress against terrorism cannot be achieved exclusively through the use of military force. Rashad Hussain and Al-Husein N. Madhany argue that in order to win the "battle of ideas," the United States government must carefully reformulate its strategy and work with the Muslim world to promote mainstream Islam over terrorist ideology.&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/BrookingsRSS/topics/homelandsecurity/~4/PRklQVh2Aqo" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>

      <title>Homeland Insecurities: Six Years after 9/11 We're Still Not Thinking Strategically</title>
      <link>http://webfeeds.brookings.edu/~r/BrookingsRSS/topics/homelandsecurity/~3/_hxc1zOEQa0/0911defense_byman.aspx</link>
      <description>Daniel L. Byman argues that a GAO report and other critiques of the Department of Homeland Security miss the broader problem: The U.S. government has not taken a strategic approach toward homeland security.&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/BrookingsRSS/topics/homelandsecurity/~4/_hxc1zOEQa0" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>

      <title>Fighting the Right War</title>
      <link>http://webfeeds.brookings.edu/~r/BrookingsRSS/topics/homelandsecurity/~3/MQQTQR-465Q/0910Rightwar_Gordon.aspx</link>
      <description>This week candidates in the 2008 presidential race will all reflect on the events of September 11, 2001 - and on the "war on terror" that we've been fighting ever since. Six years into this fight, are the United States and its allies better off than we were before it started? Sadly, I think the answer is no. While the U.S. homeland has not been attacked successfully since 9/11 - no small accomplishment - major terrorist attacks around the world have doubled compared to the six years prior to 9/11, Osama bin Laden remains at large, the United States is less popular than ever globally, we are bogged down in Iraq with no solution in sight, Iran has been emboldened, and the rest of the Middle East is dangerously unstable.&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/BrookingsRSS/topics/homelandsecurity/~4/MQQTQR-465Q" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>

Yale professor of political science Ian Shapiro disagrees. In his new book, &lt;i&gt;Containment: Rebuilding a Strategy against Global Terror &lt;/i&gt;(Princeton University Press, 2007), Shapiro argues for containment as a pragmatic idea for dealing with the nation's post September 11 threats and critiques the current policy of military pre-emption. On April 13, Shapiro joins Daniel Benjamin, Brookings senior fellow and former National Security Council director for counterterrorism, in a discussion of containment policy. Brookings President Strobe Talbott will provide the introduction.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/BrookingsRSS/topics/homelandsecurity/~4/N6L2gZz6z_Q" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>

The government implemented numerous far-reaching security measures, undertook a vast reorganization for the purpose of defending against terrorism, and more than tripled Federal homeland security spending. Although substantial gaps remain, coordination of anti-terrorist efforts has been significantly improved internationally and within the federal government.&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/BrookingsRSS/topics/homelandsecurity/~4/ARXFu9sTfU8" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>

Michael Hayden to lead the Central Intelligence Agency, new and difficult questions have arisen over a wide range of intelligence matters including the scope, purpose, and legality of the National Security Agency's electronic surveillance activities, Congressional oversight, and the role of the courts. President Bush argues that U.S. wiretapping "strictly targets Al Qaeda suspects only" and that the "privacy of ordinary Americans is fiercely protected." But critics are questioning the legality of the NSA domestic surveillance program, and senators of both parties asked pointed questions during Gen. Hayden's confirmation hearings.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/BrookingsRSS/topics/homelandsecurity/~4/vhULxznkM3U" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>

      <title>Statement on the 2006 National Security Strategy</title>
      <link>http://webfeeds.brookings.edu/~r/BrookingsRSS/topics/homelandsecurity/~3/O7pQdkqslLE/0316diplomacy_daalder.aspx</link>
      <description>Statement by Ivo H. Daalder, The Brookings Institution (3/16/06)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With the publication of its new &lt;a href="http://www.whitehouse.gov/nsc/nss/2006/" target="_blank"&gt;National Security Strategy&lt;/a&gt;, the Bush Revolution is officially over. We're seeing a return to a foreign policy that is much more akin to the foreign policies pursued by the administration's predecessors than by this administration in its first term. The new strategy's twin pillars—of promoting human rights, freedom and democracy and of working together with our friends and allies—have been central pillars of American foreign policy for decades. The reversal is clear in the way the strategy shifts the balance from emphasizing force to emphasizing diplomacy, from relying on America's unilateral power to relying on multilateral alliances and institutions, from stressing the need to ensure America's military preeminence to stressing the importance of enhancing our power by working with others.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/BrookingsRSS/topics/homelandsecurity/~4/O7pQdkqslLE" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>

      <description>Susan Rice argues that the president's&amp;nbsp;national security strategy is notable for its belated recognition of the important opportunities and challenges posed by globalization and its appropriate insistence on the need for multi-faceted, sustained U.S. leadership of the world.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/BrookingsRSS/topics/homelandsecurity/~4/-erdUs_jzN0" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>

      <title>Israel's Lessons for Fighting Terrorists and Their Implications for the United States</title>
      <link>http://webfeeds.brookings.edu/~r/BrookingsRSS/topics/homelandsecurity/~3/giQYjMgyxso/03terrorism_byman.aspx</link>
      <description>Following the September 11 terrorist attacks, the United States began its war against terrorism. Suddenly, U.S. policymakers had to confront a daunting and often controversial array of counterterrorism issues. These ranged from the types of defense needed to protect the U.S. homeland from terrorist attacks to the use and scope of targeted killings of terrorist leaders abroad. Many aspects of U.S. counterterrorism policy have attracted strong criticism. Some have challenged the effectiveness of U.S. policy. Other critics have blasted the Bush Administration for failing to protect civil liberties.&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/BrookingsRSS/topics/homelandsecurity/~4/giQYjMgyxso" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>
