Can someone please help me with this paper?

The mayor expects you to present a 6- to 8-page research paper that explains your findings and utilizes supporting documentation from a minimum of five references in APA format to validate your research.

Overall, your research paper should help the city of Centervale to prepare for potential terrorist attacks by identifying the most likely ways in which attacks might occur.

Take into consideration the following possible actions:

1. Detecting explosives in public places and transportation networks and other such preventive measures
2. Helping protect critical infrastructure and cyber networks from attack
3. Detecting agents of biological warfare
4. Building information-sharing partnerships with state and local law enforcement that can enable law enforcement to mitigate threats

Tasks:

As you construct your report for the mayor, take the following aspects into consideration:

1. Analyze and determine the potential areas of risk for the city of Centervale by selecting one of these areas of concern as the focus of your report:
   1. The local airport
   2. The water filtration system
   3. Community facilities

   Explain, on the basis of research, why the mentioned areas would be a potential target for terrorists and how an attack would occur and potentially affect the community.

2. Profile the potential terrorist organizations by providing your analysis on the terrorist organization that is most likely to launch an attack on Centervale. On the basis of the organization’s main causes or ideologies, explain why it is likely to attack the area you selected.
3. Evaluate where and how the terrorist organization may be able to obtain the resources necessary to launch an attack on Centervale. You should consider all the potential resources. Include effective strategies to verify the legitimacy of each potential terrorist resource without violating the rights of Centervale’s citizens.
4. Create a counterterrorism preparedness plan for preparing for and preventing terrorist attacks and protecting the citizens of Centervale from harm. Compare this plan with the preparedness measures offered by the Department of Homeland Security for individuals, families, and businesses.
