This book is also an eye opener for anyone that did not live through or old enough to remember the attacks discussed. I remember the 1993 World Trade Center bombing, the bombing of the USS Cole, and the African embassy bombings but not the details. I think that is why I did further research to remember the attacks. Hopefully anyone that reads this will also do the extra research for more first accounts of the attacks to even better understand what was going on in the United States at the time before 9/11, to see how life has changed since and how far we have come with the “war on terrorism.” Terrorism is unfortunately a constant issue but with the law enforcement agencies hopefully working together they can prevent another attack from happening
In one study it was found that one-third of Americans suspect that 9/11 was a conspiracy. In another poll, 36% of people said that they believed it was an “inside job”. September 11, 2001 was a day Americans will never forget. You might ask yourself the following- How could our own government put us though all of this suffering? Could it really be a conspiracy?

If we are to deal effectively with terrorists across the globe, we must develop a sense of empathy—I don't mean "sympathy," but rather "understanding"—to counter their attacks on us and the Western World. 10. One of the greatest dangers we face today is the risk that terrorists will obtain access to weapons of mass destruction as a result of the breakdown of the Non-Proliferation Regime. We in the U.S. are contributing to that

What significance does the atomic bomb hold in “Ceremony” by Leslie Marmon Silko? The atomic bomb plays a key role in the story “Ceremony” by Leslie Marmon Silko. Silko develops several themes, two of which include seeing things as they really are while not being tricked by witchery, and seeing relationships for what they are. She uses these two themes to establish that the destruction of Native Americans that occurred through the destruction of their land and culture is not a direct result of racism, but rather “witchery”—people’s tendency to hate and oppress others. The atomic bomb represents the deception behind mistaking destruction for recreation, the exploitation of land, the failure of achieving peace through violent means, and an understanding of the relationship between humans and their land.
