How to Protect the Homeland - NYTimes.com Five years ago, James Woolsey, former director of the C.I.A., and I led a government study that found a lack of preparedness to face catastrophic terrorism.

| Description: | Five years ago, James Woolsey, former director of the C.I.A., and I led a government study that found a lack of preparedness to face catastrophic terrorism. Our warnings and those of similar groups went largely unheeded. On Sept. 11, complacency was wiped away, but the fragmented bureaucratic structure and procedures of our government remain a barrier to action, despite President Bush's decision to name Gov. Tom Ridge of Pennsylvania to head a new Office of Homeland Defense.
