'''Homeland Security vs Homeland Defense'''[http://www.northcom.mil/index.cfm?fuseaction=s.homeland] from the USNORTHCOM web site:
"Homeland security (HLS) is not the same as homeland defense (HLD).
"Homeland security is the prevention, preemption, and deterrence of, and defense against, aggression targeted at U.S. territory, sovereignty, domestic population, and infrastructure as well as the management of the consequences of such aggression and other domestic emergencies.
"Homeland security is a national team effort that begins with local, state and federal organizations. DoD and NORTHCOM's HLS roles include homeland defense and civil support.
