Cjs 235 - Terrorism

...

Another security measure is trained protection personnel. When American soldiers went into Afghanistan we wanted to not just protect the United States we wanted to show the local military help defend their people against the Taliban in Pakistan. We use personal protection here in many different ways. We could use it to protect against stalkers or even protect other love ones when we are unable to do so. After 9/11 we went back to train more local and government law enforcement to better protect our borders and people coming in to the United States.

The last and most needed is a security procedure. Having security procedures in place we can better attempt to handle any such further attacks on the United States. When sending soldiers to Afghanistan we wanted to make sure these kind of attacks do not happen again. We send our trained soldiers to show how take control of their own country. One major procedure they changed after 9/11 was the security levels when flying on any air craft. The terrorist that hijacked the flights on that day were able to get fire arms and weapons undetected on board. Having the different security training and precautions simply reduce the opportunity for any such other attacks.

Terrorist seek their victims by looking at the area and region where they can cause the most harm. As on 9/11 they chose to attack the two tallest towers in a major city. The two towers at the time held many employees along with having a large impact of fatalities. They wanted to make sure they caused I high amount of damage in order to get their point across to the citizens of the United States. Another current example would have to be the war on Isis. This group had took prisoner of different aid workers from different countries and later beheading them. This group has consistently has grown along with gaining more followers by the day. They seek our people whom would be considered as outcasts and used as pawns for their own means and plans.

The attack on New York City, Washington D.C and Pennsylvia was one of the memorable and most tragic of terror attacks on U.S soil. Since 9/11 we have been able to restructure the way to catch these terrorist before they can attack again. They seek to harm and want to gain control and gain strength showing they cannot be stopped. Along with our restructure we have been able to better identify potential threats.
