Bin Laden family

survivors of the 9/11 attack as well as the families of some victims, all of which were seeking answers as to how such a tragedy could happen here in the United States. At the time there had been growing hostilities between the U.S. and terrorist organizations of the Middle East, namely Al-Qaeda. There had been multiple attacks in America leading up to 9/11 that were not handled very effectively by counterterrorism efforts in the United States. As families sought a commission for the records…

destruction, with over 3,000 casualties. This event will be remembered as one of the deadliest days in American history. There was a total of 19 members of Al-Qaeda who hijacked the planes, all men from Saudi Arabia. This group was led by Osama bin Laden, and under his orders, his followers lived in the United States for a short period of time and took flying lessons in preparation for this event. The extremists sneaked in box-cutters and knives through security, and chose their selected…

Over the past week and a half we learned about the 9/11 plane crashes. I learned a lot of new information from the videos. It all began February 22nd, 2001 when when the World Trade Center was bombed(the bomb killed 6 people). Osama Bin Laden was the main reason this all happened. On January 6th 1995 in the Philippians when Yousef blew up his apartment with his bomb equipment he made friends go into the apartment and get the toshiba computer he left in the room. The computer had all his…

and save people's lives. He died by doing the right thing.The sister was crying. What happened in Virginia was the Pentagon got attacked by one of the planes. They evacuated most of the people and some army men died. I feel bad for the for the families of the people that died. That was a sad day for everyone. The building collapsed at 9:50 a.m. Al Qaeda did this to the people of New York. They did it to break the United States apart. But they were not successful at breaking up America. I…

repeated and it was actually very vague being as follows: "Every nation in every region now has a decision to make: Either you are with us, or you are with the terrorists.” (Pellegrini). The President did identify the leader of this “evil” as Osama Bin Laden, but the name was used only once in the speech. Instead, very smartly, the President broadened the evil to a group of loosely affiliated terrorist groups called Al-Qaeda (Bush). Here he tied them with several smaller attacks on US…

working so the men could work, but by the time most of the men returned home, jobs were unavailable and this lead to The Great Depression in the 1930s. Around thirteen to fifteen million Americans were unemployed. Business would go out of business and families went without food or clothes or school for a long time. The economy stayed down until World War Two, which was in the 1940s (History.com Staff, 2009). In the 1960s we have the Vietnam War. During this, it was the period of peace, love and…

It is now the start of 2017 and the war on terror has been going on now for a little over 15 years. Besides the successful killings of dangerous terrorists such as Saddam Hussein and Osama Bin Laden, the War on Terror has not accomplished much. The War on Terror is fought over various countries against a variety of different terrorist groups. The United States have underestimated the power of the different terrorist groups similar to when they…

The Tamil Tigers were based in northern Sri Lanka. Founded in 1976, the Tamil Tigers are widely regarded to have been one of the most organized and efficient terrorist organizations in history, their soldiers ranging from five to ten thousand guerillas. The main objective for the tigers was to create a new, independent state in both northern and eastern Sri Lanka for the Tamils, the native group of Sri Lanka. The founding of the Tigers was sparked in 1972, when the Sinhalese controlled Sri…

resource for Clinton’s campaign team to use. The card-stacking propaganda technique was a benefit for Hillary Clinton because it elaborated on what beneficial things she has done for, not only the United States, but also the rest of the world. Osama Bin Laden was an international warlord who became a Wanted man in the United States, and Hillary Clinton was able to assist the military in, as Madame Secretary Clinton would put it, “bringing him to justice”. However, using the card-stacking…

ISIS Do we legitimately have to go to war? Do we even have a chance to win this war? The latest news on current events in our world would be that new terrorist group known as ISIL (ISIS) or as they call themselves “Islamic State”. They have become notorious in that last year or so. The United States believe we must go to war and “Degrade and ultimately destroy ISIL, through a comprehensive and sustained counterterrorism strategy” (Whitehouse). I believe we should not deploy our troops, or our…
