Terrorism and 9/11
INTRODUCTION
Events in 9/11 had to involve Al-Qaeda which is in Afghanistan and Iraq because both countries invaded the U.S and destroyed ones’ property in so many unexpected ways and too many times. President Bush stated that they all will be defeated. The U.S did respond to 9/11 appropriately because of the protection from security and borders to protect our country. In this paper i will explain how i believe that the U.S responded to 9/11 appropriately. I will also restate my intro. The U.S responded to the attacks in many different ways. The U.S striked back on Afghanistan while dropping food,medicine,and supplies to the suffering and starving men,women,and children of that country. They made it more difficult for the terror network to train new recruits

One way that they were affected was that the U.S troops had to go to war. U.S citizens were affected because neither one of them had any privacy. Terrorists also had been affected because now they have to watch out for bombing throughout their country. The U.S made decisions that also affected the terrorist groups. I also have my opinion for the U.S response. My opinion about the U.S response is that they are very supportive of their country and the U.S troops really cares. They risk their lives to save America from destruction. They do this by going to war against terrorists when they could just be worried about themselves. The United States does too much for such disrespect in their own country.
CONCLUSION
My introduction has been proved by how the U.S responded to 9/11 and terrorism. The U.S responded to 9/11 appropriately because of how the U.S protected,defended and did everything of their ability that they could to help America. America can become great again without terrorists invading the U.S for troops to risk their life for the United States of

    The author provides quotations from citizens who were affected by the attacks, and information about how 9/11 affected people’s personal sense of security. The article also analyzes how official intelligence agencies had faulty security systems which allowed the terrorists to get away with what they had done. Gibbs’ article was useful for this research paper, mainly to help shape the argument about government security. The information in the article helped to prove the ineffectiveness of government security before 9/11, which allows the reader of the paper to see how much it has improved since then. The source has changed my personal opinion about how good government security is.…

    The events that occurred during the 9/11 twin tower attacks did not only affect the people who were directly affected by the attack (friends or family of victims or the victims themselves) but it also affected the entire world in breathtaking fashion. This article talks about the negative consequences that America suffered because of this terrible attack. The stance of the author, Heather Mallick is that most of these consequences could have been avoided if the west was capable of responding to the attack in a way that didn't cause more chaos following the twin tower attack. But that's exactly what America did, in the article it says that the way America responded was by "Invading Afghanistan and Iraq on credit, attempting to demonize Muslims…

    Up to this point in time,we will always recall on of the most treacherous of events that,we've all come to know as 9/11.During this attack against our people ,two planes were hijacked and crashed intentionally,into the world trade center towers and,a third plane was hijacked but,thanks to the valiant passengers on board,did not reach it's destination instead,led to many tragic but gallant deaths. The U.S. responds by seeking means for the invasion of Iraq which,could cost the worldwide peace many have hoped for,away. On the other hand, much speculation from the general public arises,some from grieving individuals,who,beg for re-consideration because revenge as the price for their lost loved ones isn't a consolation. Americans question the government's…

    9/11 Doctrine Essay

    Introduction The event of 9/11 changed the way people viewed terrorism from 'an issue over there ' to the sudden realization that terrorist organizations now have the ability to attack globally and are no longer restricted to their region. Although national terrorism is not a new phenomenon given the Munich Olympic incident (Miller 1990, p.12) and several embassy bombings in the decade leading up to 9/11(Hoffman, 2002, p.305), it did directly lead to what we now call the Bush Doctrine. In short, this doctrine is the new U.S. foreign military policy where it gave the president can send military personnel into another sovereign state for the purpose of self-defense through preemptive strikes (Kelnner, 2004, p.422). In other words, removing the threat before the threat materializes.…

    Defeating Communism

    • 847 Words

    Between 1945 and 2001, the perceived national interest of defeating Communism took precedence over the real national interest of promoting Americans’ physical and economical security. The United States entered wars in Korea, Vietnam and Afghanistan because they believed preventing the spread of Communism was necessary to protect the American people. However, the success of the wars did not dictate American success in the overall Cold War. Professor Brands suggested that American leaders rally the people against a singular enemy to focus foreign policy on one mission at a time. Once the Soviet Union collapsed in 1991, the United States needed to find a new enemy.…

    The following essay will critically analyze Pape’s (2003) article from a rationalist, cultural and structural approach. Additionally, it will provide my perspective on some of the controversial topics that the article centers its argument on. Definitely, terrorism and its definition and the strategic logic behind it will be present all along to prove some claims and to discard some others (Pape 2003). Finally, an insight on the future of terrorism as a whole will be offered so if this article makes it to the real world, US policymakers can rely on a wise opinion that could reduce terrorism and the war on terror once and for all. First of all, let’s analyze the rationalist approach together with its implications, consequences and accomplishments.…
