While the scare is over terrorism rather than communism, the principle is the same. Out of this terror, paranoia, fear, and general discomfort, historians tend to draw a more positive light to shine through the darkness of the age. The terrorist attack on the twin towers on September 11th was one spark that started the fire against terrorism. People, primarily men of Middle Eastern descent are the new subjects of discrimination - in the eyes of the fear-ridden American they are possible terrorist threats. The country, just like in the 1950’s – nearly 60 years prior was, and is sold on fear.
People wanted a memorial for 9/11 but this will cost the country more money and that fact that it will put them even more under isn’t helping either.

Kostadinov goes on to note that most cyberterrorism actions are generally focused on website sabotage and email blasting. In order to prove that the network breach was a terrorist attack the company would need to provide electronic evidence of these types of information warfare. Information warfare is a term often used interchangeably with cyberterrorism but provides a deeper understanding in the shift of how data has become fundamental to society. As governments, companies and people shift to the use of digital information so have the methods used to attack (Gilmer, 2001).

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.
