Do you think DHS needed to be formed? Use the following five identified major factors and underlying challenges that led to the establishment of the DHS:

A political need for a response to the 9/11 attack,
An attempt to better “connect-the-dots” in order to prevent and deter attacks on the USA Homeland,
Creation of a more effective response structure to attacks,
Creation of a more effective response structure to disasters,
Creation of a more cost effective homeland security apparatus.

Analyze the above five factors and explain how they contributed to the formation of DHS, then answer the following questions:

Did the federal government take too long to move from the Cold War model of homeland protection?
Is DHS and the IC (Intelligence Community) properly structured?
Does DHS include too many agencies and/or are there some critical agencies missing?
