DTRA Website Analysis

Improved Essays
The Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) is a DOD agency whose main mission is to prevent the proliferation of Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMDs). DTRA is able to accomplish its mission by partnering with other nations who also want to prevent the proliferation of WMDs. Moreover, DTRA also ensures that other countries are abiding their WMDs treaties by conducting inspections in their facilities, they also work with inspectors from other countries so that they can inspect U.S. facilities so that they can ensure that we are also following our WMD’s treaties. DTRA also conducts research about WMDs so that new strategies can be created to prevent terrorist from being able to acquired a WMD. DTRA also conducts research that can improve the response in case that a WMD attack occurs. What I like about the website is that it is very easy to navigate since it is very well organized. Moreover, in their homepage they have section where you can read recent news about WMDs. I also liked that the website provides interesting articles that talk about the new technological advancements that are being used to detect WMDs as well as new technologies that are being used to improve the response to a WMD attack. Another thing that I liked is that the articles are very easy understand and most of them include high definition photos. However, one thing that I did not like is that most of their articles do not go into too much detail. …show more content…
Most of their articles just provide a simple explanation about the subject that is being discussed, but I think that it could be a good website that could be useful when somebody is looking for new ideas for a WMD research

    The party that I chose to evaluate was the Illinois Green Party. I chose to evaluate this website because I wanted to see how a 3rd party would match up to the Democratic and Republican pages. At first glance, the page does seem to be a little outdated, however it was much better than I anticipated. Because the Green Party is a lesser known party, I expected a late 90s themed website that was hard to navigate. On the homepage there were links for people to get involved with the party, as well as places to donate.…

    This drug is one of the most horrifying things I’ve researched because the website is full of convincing claims and statistics that are completely fake. There are so many people who have been physically and emotionally tortured by ingesting this poison, and many of them are just looking for an alternative cure. I can’t imagine a nonverbal autistic child being given MMS baths and enemas without wondering how all of these administrators are not in jail for torture or medical malpractice. It also confuses me that there are parents who won’t vaccinate their children because they believe the false claims that medically regulated vaccines cause autism, yet parents who have autistic children would have no problem injecting their children with poisonous bleach as a cure.…

    Within the IC there are 16 separate member organizations, with each falling within or under one of the following groups: independent intelligence agencies, military intelligence, and civilian intelligence and analysis offices within federal executive departments. Within this maze there is a direct line of authority and a line of coordination connecting these elements into a manageable soup. The Director of National Intelligence (DNI), who reports to the President of the United States, leads the IC. Although this office is not listed as a member of the Intelligence Community, the DNI exerts leadership of the IC primarily through the statutory authorities under which he: Controls the National Intelligence program budget; Establishes objectives, priorities, and guidance for the IC; Manages and directs the tasking of, collection, analysis, production, and dissemination of national intelligence by elements of the IC.
