September 11, 2001. A day that many hate to remember and a day the world will never forget. The devastating attack on America that occurred on 9/11 was not only a wake up call but also reveled that America was the impenetrable State she displayed herself as. The president at this time was George W. Bush; he has to act quickly and intelligently. This called for immediate attention and had the attention of single person in America. Niccolo Machiavelli was a philosopher from the 15th and 16th century, using his ideas I will examine the politics and public policy of the Bush administration following 9/11.

A great terror struck our nation September 11, 2001, two aircraft’s hit the world trade centers, killing 2000 people and injuring over twice as many. A third aircraft flew into the Pentagon while a fourth crashed in a rural area in Pennsylvania. This day will forever be engrained into history as one of the worst terror attacks faced in this nation. Nearly three years later, in an attempt to figure out what happened on that tragic day, scholars came together to discuss the possible parallels between foreign and domestic terrorist. The author, Michael Kimmel, outlines the possible cause of the 2001 attacks and offers us a link between both foreign and domestic terrorism. Kimmel's essay is effectively written using ethos, logos, and pathos.
On September 11, 2001, Arab terrorists crashed into the World Trade Center, killing hundreds of Americans and causing widespread panic in the U.S. The 9/11 incident has dramatically altered the course of society through its integrity and stability with a haze of everlasting paranoia of Middle Easterners and the oncourse of foreign policies. Such haze has conjured an ensemble of unity within international politics.
On what was expected to be another day for every American became a burning memory in both Americans and America’s history. September 11, 2001 was the day where fear shook America into recklessly declaring war on terror against Iraq. At 8:46 am, the North Tower of the World Trade Center is interrupted by the American Airline Flight 11 by Mohammed Atta and the hijackers (History); seventeen long minutes later, the South Tower of the World Trade Center is also interrupted by the United Airlines Flight 175 by the other hijackers (History). In order to fight for the endangerment of America’s freedom was being attacked, President George Bush and the Bush Administration contrustred an aggressive invasion in the Middle East. In response to this, George
In the article “The Ticking Bomb”, by Wade Davis, the author uses historical events to further evident his argument of the increase global tension and poverty due to the affluence western countries. The author starts the article with the 9/11 attack and, throughout the article, he examines the cause and effect of the attack. The author concludes that the United States is an omnipotent country, as they “dominate the geopolitical scene” (4). After the 9/11 attack, Americans declare a “war on terror” (G.W. Bush), which, as the author suggests, “[is an isolated phenomenon; however, the al-Qaeda organization, the organization that cause the attack, manifest into conflicts that are getting deeper and broader]” (5). The author then introduces the
Fifteen years have passed since the United States was attacked by Al-Qaeda terrorists on September 11, 2001. The nineteen men who were involved in this outbreak were led by Osama bin Laden. They were instructed to hijack four airplanes and deliberately crashed into the World Trade Center in New York City. Families responded in fear and sorrow as they witnessed the planes crashed. Officials believe that the terrorists intended to destroy the White House or the United States Capitol. September 11, 2001, was a defining moment in history and showed the lack of organization and structure of the government. New government organizations were created to protect the country from terrorist attacks. As a result, society adapted to these new changes. Overall, this
September 11th, 2001, left a devastating impact on not only the United States, but worldwide. Many families had been separated and many souls were lost in what was one of the most terroristic events that has ever happened on American ground. As two planes crashed into the Twin Towers located in New York, thousands of people would be left stuck in the crumbling building, some able to escape, while others were not as lucky. In an essay by Peter Bergen called “Could it Happen Again? In the National Interest”, Bergen highlights inside details of the fatal attack and what caused Bin Laden and Al-Qaeda to reign its terror on the Twin Towers. He explores the text of the Quran and the impact it’s leaving on its people and also brings in an expert in international politics in the Middle East in order to solidify his idea on what really caused 9/11.

To begin with following both of these tragedies they brought the world closer together and gave the world a sense of security and gratefulness of our freedom. There were many similarities that conjoined these events; which were the United States fear of immigrants and dissidents, production declines and stock market decline after 9/11, improved technology to locate terrorist and terrorism activity, and lastly deportation and arrests of alien citizens. After the Red Scare many Americans had become afraid of alien citizens and some even went as far as to hurt and shun them out of our world. The same thing happened following 9/11; after the attacks many Americans had become petrified of and began to harass and put out hate crimes against South
The War on Terror and World War 1 are similar and different in many ways. Certain events in the War on Terror made it similar to World War 1. People who died fighting for their country was a sign of patriotism. Patriotism was shown in World War 1 and the War on Terror. The U.S. fought to protect their country, while Iraq fought to show that they their religion and kind were the strongest. Though in World War 1 there were alliances in this war, the Central Powers and Allied Forces. But in the War on Terror there is really no one allied with Iraq or ISIS.
The Cold War did occur after WWII between the United States and The Soviet Union at the time of President Ronald Reagan administration. The Soviet union and its government had the ideology of spreading communism around the world. The United States was against communism and this why the country went to war with Vietnam. "Containment" was the ultimate goal by the U.S. to preventing communism from happen worldwide. My perception of the Cold War and the War on Terror is due to the lack of the United States government to understanding other countries language, culture and way of life. Would you believe this is the case, Rukaya, or do you think their are other factors involved? This is why in my opinion, is the reason the U.S. military invaded
Engelhardt's article, "14 years after 9-11, the War on Terror is Accomplishing Everything bin Laden Hoped it Would", relies heavily on anaphora. It begins with the phrase, "Fourteen years.." in every sentence and shifts to every paragraph by page 2. This phrase draws the reader in and drills the event in our minds, reminding us of all that happened. Because his sentences list, the anaphora helps break up each thought, therefore allowing ease of readability. Another use of repetition is the phrase "Don't you..", directed to our reaction as a nation. Although this subject generates controversy and implements doubt, it also accomplishes keeping the reader curious and interested.
Conflict and consensus model of policing are seen to be the opposite of each other from the definition and examples seen above. Firstly, Consensus model of policing is collaborative in nature and members of society work together to achieve justice while conflict model of policing is authoritative in nature and the police used their ways to go about reducing crime and social disorder (Evans, 2016). Secondly, organisational culture is more prevalent in conflict model of policing where ---------, widening the gap between the community and the public. Based on the mode of operation in conflict model of policing, it is inevitable that the relationship of trust is absent. On the other hand, consensus model of policing focuses on the community and (p.153 of Evan book), talk about the trust between police and community
