"They that can give up essential
liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor
safety."

Learn How to Help Protect Your Community,
Your Family and Yourself
"If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of
a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every
victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the
enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle."
About the war on terrorism and potential threat of terrorism to our water
supply, one of our readers' comments:
"I
was born in what used to be Rhodesia, and during the terrorist war there
in the 1970s water supplies were poisoned and villagers died or suffered,
so I am very aware of the huge risk to life."

Understanding Water and Terrorism,
is a book that provides a complete overview of the potential threat to
the United States public water supply. It provides
information in a clear, organized, non-technical, straightforward manner.
This book will
help you to prepare for an emergency water supply disruption so that you
are better able to protect your community, your family and yourself.
According to J. Edgar Hoover, former
Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Director:
"Among public
utilities, water supply facilities offer a particularly vulnerable point
of attack...."
It is critical for all of us, as
citizens, to know where our water supply comes from and where and how it
is vulnerable to disruption or enemy attack.
The chapters include:
Water as a Weapon
Terrorism
The Terrorists
Homeland Security
The Responders and Responding Agencies
Countering Terrorism of Water Supplies
Being Prepared
The Bioterrorism Act
The USA Patriot Act
EPA Instructions to Community Water Systems
Many Internet Resources for Terrorism
Our water supply is critical to our
quality and way of life, and without it our society will fail.
What others are saying
"A
resource for anyone who wants to help protect our country and our
families!"
Writer's
Digest Review - March 2004
"H.
Court Young has an unusual understanding of our water system and the
threat that terrorism poses to our society in that area. He does an
excellent job of explaining that threat to the average reader and gives
a good view of how our national water system works."
As Dr. Murray G. Hamilton, Director, Rocky Mountain Center for
Homeland Defense, Denver Research Institute, University of Denver says:
"This book Understanding Water and Terrorism is an
invaluable resource for any concerned citizen and especially for members
of water boards. It is chock full of useful statistics and facts and the
sources, both internet and publications, for the information reported in
the book. The inter-relationships between the water industry and the
other critical infrastructures is particularly revealing."
Professor Shimshon Belkin, Institute of Life
Sciences, The Hebrew University of Jerusalem says:
"Thank you very much for the book, which I have
found most illuminating."
How do I Protect my Family?
"Educating ourselves is one of the most important things that we can
do."
Education about the threat removes the fear of the unknown. While an
attack may still be unexpected, with a lot of shock value, education and
knowledge help remove the "panic" that can make the situation worse.
You can be prepared.
According to an article by Rich Anderson, Urban Water Council and Jeff
Sloan, Chlorine Chemistry Council;
"Serious concerns have arisen regarding our nations preparedness for
bioterrorism attacks in the wake of the September 11, 2001 terrorists
attacks. Confirmed cases of anthrax fuel this concern and local government
is fully engaged in discussion as to how to prepare for and respond to
various forms of bioterrorism."
An Essential Guide to Understanding the threat of terrorism to our
public water systems
This book on water and terrorism is unlike any other book on the
market. It is an excellent educational reference both for the general
reading public as well as the student or professional interested in
researching the topic. It is one way the general public can contribute
to Counter Terrorism, and homeland security. Issues from anti terrorism
to cyber terrorism, which are part of the infrastructure management, are
also included.
Since the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, the
following questions are of concern to all of us:
How vulnerable is our water supply?
What kind of attack can be made? By
whom?
How can we protect against attack? Can
we protect our loved ones?
If attacked, how can we respond?

security and the threat to our water supply system. The link below is to
