Texas Border Security: A Strategic Military AssessmentJon Hansen
During the past two years the state of Texas has become increasingly threatened by the spread of Mexican cartel organized crime. The threat reflects a change in the strategic intent of the cartels to move their operations into the United States. In effect, the cartels seek to create a “sanitary zone” inside the Texas border -- one county deep -- that will provide sanctuary from Mexican law enforcement and, at the same time, enable the cartels to transform Texas’ border counties into narcotics transshipment points for continued transport and distribution into the continental United States. To achieve their objectives the cartels are relying increasingly on organized gangs to provide expendable and unaccountable manpower to do their dirty work. These gangs are recruited on the streets of Texas cities and inside Texas prisons by top-tier gangs who work in conjunction with the cartels.

15.Abstract: This paper addresses the significant operational, political, and organizational risks inherent in the implementation of United
States Northern Command, or NORTHCOM, and how the command can mitigate those risks by carefully managing their relationships
with the homeland security interagency players. After briefly reviewing homeland security organizational issues, the author proposes
three areas of potential problems -- budget authority, unclear lines of authority and responsibility, and a lack of communication,
command, and control relationships among interagency players. To address these problems, the author suggests NORTHCOM focus on
five characteristics of their interage.
Artful Balance: Future US Defense Strategy and Force Posture in the Gulfatlanticcouncil
A strategic review of US defense strategy and force posture in the Gulf is long overdue. In Artful Balance: Future US Defense Strategy and Force Posture in the Gulf, Bilal Y. Saab, Resident Senior Fellow for Middle East Security at the Atlantic Council’s Brent Scowcroft Center on International Security, and Barry Pavel, Vice President and Director of the Scowcroft Center, analyze how historic changes and developing trends in Washington, the Middle East, and across the globe—along with Iran’s nuclear ambitions and asymmetric threat—are all affecting US defense strategy in the Gulf.

2. Dear Colleague:
Welcome to IDGA’s inaugural event devoted to the challenges and opportunities
of Integrated Air and Missile Defense. It has been more than a decade since the
September 11th terrorist attacks on the U.S. Homeland. These attacks forced U.S.
Armed Forces to prepare for a different type of warfare against terrorist organizations
and away from their more traditional role in defeating nation-states in conventional
wars. As the U.S. withdraws from large scale overseas contingency operations,
our potential adversaries have studied and learned that it is not cost effective to
compete against U.S. conventional forces. Adversaries have developed asymmetric
capabilities to counter U.S. dominance that both threaten our deployed forces and
coalition partners, as well as the U.S. Homeland. It is in this context that the topic
of Integreated Air and Missile Defense is timely. The main questions we will be
addressing during this conference are:
• What are the current and future threats confronting the U.S. and its partners?
• Is the U.S. making the right investments in its IAMD capabilities?
• What does Integration look like in the 21st Century
• What policy and strategies do we need to adjust?
We have designed an exciting agenda and have invited an interesting and diverse
group of speakers. Please mark your calendars and join us for this exhilarating event.

0800 Registration
0845 Chairperson Welcome and Opening Remarks
0900 WORKSHOP A: Detecting, Deciding, and Defeating UAS Platforms
Developing effective methods of both intercepting and defeating UAS platforms is crucial in todays ever evolving geo-political landscape. Utilizing
traditional interception methods are far to expensive and problematic, thus the need to develop new, next generation solutions to combat these
platforms. JIAMDO has led the way countering the rising UAS threat, and has hosted a Live Fly/Live Fire event known as Black Dart. In this workshop
we will hear about:
·· Methods of Quickly Identifying the Appropriate Response to Real-time Airspace Violations
·· Utilizing Variable Methods of Interception
·· Overview of the Black Dart Event
Session Reserved for Representative from
Joint Integrated Air and Missile Defense Organization
1030 Morning Networking and Refreshment Break
1045 WORKSHOP B: Developing Effective Methods of Preventing UAS Infiltration into Secure Airspace
With the growing rise of UAS platforms, guarding secured Airspace becomes much more challenging then it once used to be. No longer are threats
limited to large airplanes or helicopters. Now, a small UAS platform could potential cause immeasurable damage. The challenge becomes how to
prevent the infiltration in the first place, minimizing the need for a potentially dangerous response. In this workshop we will discuss:
·· Overview of the Challenges UAS pose to Secure Airspace
·· Developing Solutions to Minimize Resources Expenditures
·· Next Generation Methods of Preventing Air-Space Infiltration
1215 Lunch
1315 WORKSHOP C: NATO Perspective on Air and Missile Defense
A key aspect of Air and Missile Defense is that it can not be done successfully in a vacuum. Through international cooperation, the threat of an
effective missile strike can be dramatically reduced. NATO has made missile defense a priority and will continue to foster relationships that help
achieve a safer world. In this workshop, we will learn about:
·· Leveraging Partnerships to Help Promote International Security
·· Strategic Vision of the Future of International Missile Defense
·· Promoting Stability through Effective IAMD
1445 Afternoon Refreshment Break
1500 WORKSHOP D: Managing the Tension – Prioritizing One Requirement over Another
When a Commander elects to fulfil one requirement, resources are inevitably taken away from a second requirement-whether it be manpower,
resources, or funds. The challenge for the Commanders becomes how to balance these relationships and provide the appropriate amount of
attention and resources to each requirement, without sacrificing mission readiness. This principle is illustrated most effectively in the IAMD arena.
This workshop will cover:
·· Defining the Tension between Requirements
·· Understand How Priorities are established and resources are Allocated in the Missile Defense Community
·· Illustrating the Unique Challenges the Missile Defense Community Faces
