i think the tempo of al qaeda and its affiliates have increased as you have indicated. there are other groups around the world that are also trt, in europe you may have seen germans increase their level of security this morning in response to the current threat stream we need to go into closed session about. the way i look at this construct for t.s.a. and homeland security is that we are on a continuum for national security mission in the united states. at the one end we have the offensive actions of the military, weather in the tribal area, afghanistan, pakistan, working with other countries, wherever it may be, and hopefully there is some intelligence because of somebody is detained on the battlefield say there is current plotting against the u.s. that may not work. so we look at those other agencies, c.i.a. and n.s.a. for humint and those things that will inform us about plots that may be taking place here in the u.s. that may not happen. so my former colleagues, the f.b.i. and task forces, hopefully they or the 750 to 800,000 state and local police officers, sheriff'

now i recognize that the tempo of air cargo's supply chain is different from maritime cargo. nerabilities in our supply chains and to manage risk. we can make better opportunity on cargo overseas. instead of attempting to screen almost all cargo at airport, it could be screened at a warehouse where the package is sealed long before it arrived at an airport and kept secure until it's delivered. that would avoid the potential delays trying to do everything immediately prior to loading packages on aircraft. i mentioned that dhs must constantly reevaluate the allocation of it's security resources and priorities. in that vain, i still remained concerned about the intrusiveness and effectiveness of the advanced imaging technology in the potential negative health effects. as mr. pistole knows, this is an issue that i'm neverred to him many times, as well as secretary napolitano and multiple letters to the administration. i believe the department should independently evaluate the health effects of the technology and should consider software that is in use at skipo airport in amsterdam
