Lastly it states that how can we improve coordination and communication among all levels of government and the public in the fight against terrorism. A central argument that is clearly stated is that how are we bettering the systems that we have in place to help us better defend ourselves from terrorist attacks. I convinced that the study was worth doing because the author explains the difference in what we was doing in the past and how we took those security measures and develop a better system for the present but using those past experiences in a matter that we are able to develop a better system also. Using the past and present terrorist attacks can enable us to have better systems for our future and perhaps ensuring our people have a safer place to live for them and our children. From what the author has stated is that, Homeland Security is improving the National Warning Systems in order to improve coordination and communication and also improving on the Homeland Security Advisory System (HSAS and the National Terrorism Advisory System (NTAS) but I believe that the National Terrorism Advisory System has a great
He plans to send an additional 30,000 troops. In July 2011, it is expected the troops will begin to pull out of Afghanistan. Even though we have a date to start withdrawal, Obama has made it known that this date is only conditional, depending on the how things look on the ground. In conclusion, we went to war because of the devastating and deadly terrorist attacks to our nation on September 11, 2001. We sent troops to Afghanistan to bring down Osama bin Laden and the other al-Qaeda members, as well as helping the nation build a democratic leadership.

A Response to: The Day After Trinity HIS 262 Ellen Bardo Pennsylvania College of Technology February 13, 2010 The Day After Trinity is the documentation of the development of the atomic bomb, the original weapon of mass destruction, by the United States due to the belief that Hitler and Nazi Germany were pursuing the development of the atomic bomb. This concern, with regard to the possible consequences that would result from the development of the atom bomb by Nazi Germany, justified the entry of the United States into the race to develop the ultimate weapon. Robert Oppenheimer, prominent physicist, joined the research group dedicated to developing the atom bomb in the early 1940’s. The team consisted of Nobel Laureates
| Respond to this Article | November 2001 | Now Do You Believe We Need A Draft?We're in a new kind of war. Time for a new kind of draft. By Charles Moskos and Paul Glastris | President Bush has said that the new war against terrorism will be "a different kind of conflict." He is more right than he knows. Not only are we facing a uniquely shadowy enemy, one committed to inflicting mass civilian casualties on U.S. soil.
The distinction is more than merely rhetorical. For all our necessary emphasis on what we're fighting -- Islamic terrorists bent on the destruction of the West and the establishment of a new caliphate -- we cannot forget what we're fighting for. In March of 2003, the president and a bipartisan congress insisted we needed to invade Iraq in order to thwart Saddam's plans to develop WMD and outsource it to Jihadi surrogates. The nuclear WMD risk was, and remains, a perilous impending threat, though significantly reduced with the removal of Saddam's regime. But seasoned intelligence and national security analysts would argue that our ultimate objective -- to establish an Islamic democracy in the cradle of the Islamic world in order to protect our vital national interests -- is as critical, if not more so today, as it was in 2003.

Former CIA Director James Woolsey, without mentioning Afghanistan, pointed his finger at “state sponsorship,” implying the complicity of one or more foreign governments. In the words of former National Security Adviser, Lawrence Eagleburger, “I think we will show when we get attacked like this, we are terrible in our strength and in our retribution.” That same evening at 9:30 pm, a “War Cabinet” was formed integrated by a select number of top intelligence and military advisors. And at 11:00 pm, at the end of that historic meeting at the White House, the “War on Terrorism” was officially launched. The tragic events of 9/11 provided the required justification to wage war on Afghanistan on “humanitarian grounds”, with the full support of World public opinion and the endorsement of the “international community”. Several prominent “progressive” intellectuals made a case for “retaliation against terrorism”, on moral and ethical grounds.
The Homeland Security Act of 2002 Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University The Homeland Security Act of 2002 The Homeland Security Act of 2002 was introduced in the aftermath of the September 11 attacks and subsequent mailings of anthrax spores.
