Richard Carmona on Homeland Security

Remain vigilant about terrorism; it still threatens US

Many challenges remain in the ever changing global environment. Terrorism remains a paramount concern. Although we have defeated Osama bin Laden and severely weakened al Qaeda, terrorists are still out there and still threaten the United States. We must remain vigilant about terrorism and be adept in fighting it in all its incarnations. As we withdraw from Afghanistan and bring an end to an over decade long war, we must ensure that we are not turning the country over to enemy hands.
