Combined Joint Special Operations Task Force – North (CJSOTF–N), also known as Task Force Viking, was the U.S. joint task force responsible for the northern front during the initial period of the 2003 invasion of Iraq (OIF Rotation I).
 It secured Kirkuk, Mosul, and the northern oil fields; prevented 13 Iraqi Army divisions from defending Baghdad or reinforcing defensive operations against American and British troops advancing in the south, and thwarted Turkish efforts to subvert Kurdistan.
 Task Force Viking conducted artillery observer, direct action, special reconnaissance, and unconventional warfare missions in order to disrupt and fix Iraqi forces arrayed along the "Green Line", the nominal 1991 demarcation line between the Kurdish northern provinces of Iraq and the remainder controlled by Saddam Hussein.

 JIATF West is one of two Joint Interagency Task Forces with a counter-narcotics mission.
 The other is Joint Interagency Task Force South.
 The task force is run as USPACOM's "executive agent" for counterdrug activities providing support to partner nation law enforcement.

Kenneth A. Hersh (born 1963, Dallas, Texas) is an American entrepreneur, business executive, and financier who specializes in the energy industry.
 Hersh is best known as the chairman and former CEO of NGP Energy Capital Management (NGP), a private equity firm based in Texas, and CEO of the George W. Bush Presidential Center in Dallas.
 After starting his career with Morgan Stanley’s investment banking division in 1985, Hersh co-founded NGP in 1988.
 Through his work with the firm, Hersh is credited with pioneering the use of the now widespread “owner-manager” investment model in the natural resources sector.
 Energy Transfer Partners proved to be one of Hersh's more notable investments with NGP, as the company netted NGP a nearly 3,000% return on investment.
 In 2012 the Carlyle Group acquired a $424 million stake in NGP Energy Capital.
 The Carlyle Group also appointed Hersh as a senior advisor, with the task of assisting in the "execution of the firm’s natural resources investment strategies."
 Hersh served as NGP's CEO until 2015, at which point he took on the role of chairman instead.

 Rumsfeld served as the 13th Secretary of Defense from 1975 to 1977 under President Gerald Ford, and as the 21st Secretary of Defense from 2001 to 2006 under President George W. Bush.
 He is both the youngest and the second oldest person to have served as Secretary of Defense.
 Additionally, Rumsfeld was a three-term U.S. Congressman from Illinois (1963–1969), Director of the Office of Economic Opportunity (1969–1970), Counsellor to the President (1969–1973), the United States Permanent Representative to NATO (1973–1974), and White House Chief of Staff (1974–1975).
Created in June 2006 by President of the United States George W. Bush, the Task Force on New Americans is an interagency initiative to help immigrants learn English, embrace the common core of American civic culture, and fully become American.
 Established within the Department of Homeland Security, Secretary Michael Chertoff serves as Chair of the Task Force.
 Membership includes representatives from 12 Cabinet-level departments and a technical working committee of eight additional federal agencies.
 Alfonso Aguilar, Chief of the Office of Citizenship at U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), serves as Chair of the Task Force’s technical committee.
 Since it was established more than three years ago, the Task Force has worked to develop interagency initiatives to help immigrants settle in their new country and maximize the use of federal resources in promoting integration.
 By providing technical resources to communities and organizations, encouraging volunteerism, developing effective training methods, conducting targeted research efforts, and providing recommendations to the President, the Task Force has sought to encourage successful immigrant assimilation in a comprehensive manner.
United States Pacific Command (USPACOM) is a unified combatant command of the United States Armed Forces responsible for the Indo-Asia-Pacific region.
 It is the oldest and largest of the unified combatant commands.
 Its commander, the senior U.S. military officer in the Pacific, is responsible for military operations in an area which encompasses more than 100 e6sqmi , or roughly 52 percent of the Earth’s surface, stretching from the waters off the west coast of the United States to the west coast of India, and from the Arctic to the Antarctic.
 The Commander reports to the President of the United States through the Secretary of Defense and is supported by Service component and subordinate unified commands, including U.S. Army Pacific, U.S. Pacific Fleet, U.S. Pacific Air Forces, U.S. Marine Forces Pacific, U.S. Forces Japan, U.S. Forces Korea, Special Operations Command Korea, and Special Operations Command Pacific.

 The USPACOM headquarters building, the Nimitz-MacArthur Pacific Command Center, is located on Camp H.M. Smith, Hawaii.
The Olympic Dam Task Force was formed by the Government of South Australia in 2006 to assist with the facilitation of the expansion of BHP Billiton's Olympic Dam copper, gold and uranium mine near Roxby Downs in the state's Far North region.
 The Olympic Dam Task Force was initially allocated $1.5 million over three financial years to support its operations which included maximising the flow-on benefits of the proposed $5 billion plus mining expansion.
 At the time of its foundation, the Olympic Dam expansion was believed to have the potential to generate around 23 000 direct and indirect jobs.
 The task force was allocated an additional $1.7 million funding for the financial years 2008-2009 and 2009-2010 to pay for recruitment of additional staff, provision of external advice, and other costs.
 Annual expenditure exceeded $2 million for the first time in 2012, the same year BHP Billiton decided not to proceed with the expansion as originally planned.
 The Task Force's scope has since expanded to include the facilitation of other major industrial projects in South Australia.
Copper Green is reported by American investigative journalist Seymour Hersh to be one of several code names for a U.S. black ops program, according to an article in the May 24, 2004, issue of "The New Yorker".
 According to Hersh, the task force was formed with the direct approval of Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld during the U.S. invasion of Afghanistan, and run by Deputy Undersecretary Stephen Cambone.
 Hersh claims the special access program members were told "Grab whom you must.
 Do what you want."
 The program allegedly designed physical coercion and sexual humiliation techniques for use against Muslim Arab men specifically, to retrieve information from suspects, and to blackmail them into becoming informants.
According to most U.S. news networks, a majority of Americans support United States or Israeli military action against Iran.
 Other, more recent, polls point out that Americans "back a newly brokered nuclear deal with Iran by a 2-to-1 margin and are very wary of the United States resorting to military action against Tehran even if the historic diplomatic effort falls".
 Organised opposition to a possible future military attack against Iran by the United States (US) and/or Israel is known to have started during 2005–2006.
 Beginning in early 2005, journalists, activists and academics such as Seymour Hersh, Scott Ritter, Joseph Cirincione and Jorge E. Hirsch began publishing claims that United States' concerns over the allege threat posed by the possibility that Iran may have a nuclear weapons program might lead the US government to take military action against that country.
 These reports, and the concurrent escalation of tensions between Iran and some Western governments, prompted the formation of grassroots organisations, including Campaign Against Sanctions and Military Intervention in Iran in the US and the United Kingdom, to advocate against potential military strikes on Iran.
 Additionally, several individuals, grassroots organisations and international governmental organisations, including the Director-General of the International Atomic Energy Agency, Mohamed ElBaradei, a former United Nations weapons inspector in Iraq, Scott Ritter, Nobel Prize winners including Shirin Ebadi, Mairead Corrigan-Maguire and Betty Williams, Harold Pinter and Jody Williams, Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament, Code Pink, the Non-Aligned Movement of 118 states, and the Arab League, have publicly stated their opposition to such an attack.
