One World: The Ethics Of Terrorism

Sixth the executive management team must define the procedures that all employees and essential vendors will use during emergency situations. Seventh, the employee training team must define and execute an awareness campaign that properly informs each employee of their role within the DRP/ECP plan and confirm that employee's understanding of their role. Last, the emergency management team’s members must maintain documentation of the DRP/ECP plan including updating when needed, changing the plan to meet organization changes, and recording of observations post plan execution.

These decisions makers have defined what the organizations mission is and are constantly working towards it. Realizing that crisis management must be more than mere lip-service, leaders develop training programs around various crisis situations and drill often on various scenarios that could envelop any organization. While training leaders stress working “smarter”, managing their training time around obsessive planning for numerous crisis events means being better prepared when an actual disaster

In Statecraft, from turn zero it was apparent terrorism was going to be a prevailing issue. In fact, only one nation, per the Bush Doctrine, was not a state sponsor of terror. An important element of the Bush doctrine was the lack of distinction between terrorist and anyone including the states who aid the terrorist. With terrorist surrounding my nation from the west and south supporting terrorist organizations, I advised our nation’s leader to adhere to the Bush doctrine. Unfortunately, my fake nation’s leader focused on other things such as recycling. After our leader continually ignored numerous warnings, our Capital and other cities were continually attacked by OLF and the Typhoon pirates. Not being President, all I could do was the minimal, and otherwise was forced to sit back and watch not only Elferians but the citizens of the entire Statecraft world lose their family and friends from terrorist attacks.

There are different elements clarify why terrorism is ethically wrong, regardless of the possibility that different types of murdering are every so often passable. Notwithstanding, terrorism slaughtering considers whether the utilization of different sorts of fear for political as opposed to military use makes terrorism altogether off-base. A few good qualifications that may be critical to the ethical quality and reasonable portrayal of terrorism are incorporated.

Arnold H. Glascow once said, “One trial of leadership is being able to recognize a problem situation before it becomes an emergency.” In today’s society, governments come equipped for every emergency situation. This includes, being ready for the possibility of an intrusion of terrorist. However, the question remains, how does one go about setting up a plan that will explain how the chain of command works? Applying an Incident Action Plan that defines how a unified chain of command system works and what is expected of each department, will provide the proper instructions on how to react to emergencies.

Emergency responders face the difficult task of ensuring the safety and wellbeing of the citizens they serve. Natural and man-made disasters augment the daily threats that responders face. The threat of disaster poses an especially large risk due to their massive sizes and therefore, additional susceptibility to hazards. The Kansas City government created an Emergency Operations Plan (EOP) to combat the most likely dangers they are likely to face based off of their Threats, Hazards Identification Risk Assessment (THIRA).

A response team prepares and responds to a wide variety of crises. All individuals on the response team should be trained in response measures appropriate for site-specific vulnerabilities and identified. The mobilization and proficiency of initial actions, as well as response procedure familiarity is crucial in minimizing potential chaos, scenario consequences, and plausible chain-reaction events. Having a well-rehearsed emergency plan enables efficient and effective response coordination, reduces losses, and can limit the impact to individuals including those on the response team, the environment, and the overall kingdom. In order to response to a crisis different areas such as medical/technical, operations, logistics, and surveillance are

When we approach the people who are terrorists and terrorism, we have to also consider and ask the question “are their behavior ethical and what the ethical ramifications of their behavior are.

Fothergrill(2003), mentions, how in fact how one woman was appalled/offended, that migrant farm workers would receive charity, but were not embarrassed by accepting it(665). This type of thinking shows not only shows different people were impacted by the disaster but the way they feel towards others and how they reacted to the aftermath of the storm. This lady who grew up in an environment where the thought of receiving aid was a sign of weakness and could not comprehend, why a fellow citizen was so eager or so willing to accept this aid without feeling embarrassed by it. The thought process can debatable on which person is in the right. In this woman’s case, she feels that she doesn’t need the aid and that due to her lifestyle and the way she was raised and feels that she can get through the situation on her own and through hard work. On the other hand however, she doesn’t know this gentleman that well and doesn’t know his current situation. He could have been impacted in a different way than she was and needs some form of assistance form himself and his family. Neither is wrong in the way they have handled themselves in this situation, but it is interesting, that this particular woman doesn’t understand, that when different people go through the same situation, that everyone will have a different way in which they respond to the

Training: Training of key personnel in emergency management agencies is well accepted as an integral part of ensuring readiness for catastrophic incidents. However, the skills and capabilities of personnel assigned to "surge teams" that deploy to assist with on-site support must also be maintained and updated through training and exercises. The after-action report for the ESF-1 program for the 2005 hurricane season found the volunteers from throughout the agency to be important resources to help meet the demands of a catastrophic incident, but that some needed more training in the established ESF-1 and NRP processes.

The emergency operations center is the central point for the gathering and dissemination of information during a large scale emergency response. An EOC can be a full-time facility, staffed 24 hours a day and 7 days a week, or it may be a temporary location set by its needs. The staffing of an emergency operations center may slightly vary between EOC’s; however, it is commonly made-up of representatives of departments responding to an incident. Being responsible for the strategic overview, an EOC is a vital part in emergency preparedness and emergency management

The United States Department of Labor's Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) requires almost all organizations and industries to have an emergency action plan (EAP). The rationale for mandating EAPs is that they " will result in fewer and less severe employee injuries and less structural damage to the facility during emergencies," (OSHA, 2013). If the EAP is followed, it will likely lead to a more organized evacuation with less confusion, fewer injuries, and less property damage as well (OSHA, 2013). The importance of maintaining an effective and organization-appropriate EAP cannot be underestimated. An EAP saves lives and also protects valuable information and property.

Without planned and tested organizational and community control of emergency response mitigation, efforts can be like herding cats. Our collective community and organizational actions for response to both disasters and emergencies regardless of scope need effective and effective management. The execution of imagination using the worst imaginable scenario and walking through all of the points of failure will enable the team to plan and exercise actions for a wide variety of situations. In

Put differently, the measures in which the US went about this issue is problematic as they acted outside the legality of international law. Jocknick and Normand argue that the international humanitarian law cannot be used to “humanize war” and that they may impose states to create “effective humanitarian limits on the conduct of wars” (Jochnick, 51). They also outline the importance of understanding the events of “past legal effort to regulate war” in an attempt to reassure that mistakes are prevented and that outcomes in regards to protecting civilians can be better predicted (51). Consequently, many nations were not relatively happy at the outcome of the war on terror and how the States handled the issue.

There have been occurrences of some major natural disasters over the recent times, this have had great impact on families and lives of many people. The event that has had a great impact to me is the recent occurrence of the September 11 terrorist attacks. These events made headlines in media all over the world in newspapers as well as television got an in depth detail of the occurrence that had a great impact on me ,I failed to understand how terrorists could be so evil to an extent of planning to attack innocent citizens.
