There's questions that still have not been answered.

George W. Bush once said that “Our enemies have made the mistake that America’s enemies always make. They see liberty and think they saw weakness.” 9/11 was a devastating day in American history. Men, from the terrorist group Al Quada, attacked America on their own soil for the first time since Japan attack us at Pearl Harbor. But there are some things we can isolate from it. The basic overview of it. What were the terrorists doing to get ready for the day, and what was their major purpose and intention.

Additionally, there was lack of oversight on the FBI by the Executive and Legislative Branches.

One thing I do know in my community there is a Sikh temple not too far from where I live and with the other attacks on the other temples I believe our community should have people get together and come up with ideas to protect them from an attack happening to them. Maybe setting up a city meeting or getting a patrol officer to do more rounds around the temple or having their church do service someplace else for the time being I have seen others of their religion do it out of their home so they could do it that way also. As for other crimes in my community I believe that the city and police department have a pretty good method in place already by using the neighborhood watch program and using the media to have the residents of Lodi come together and always report any suspicious activity, and how they have certain patrol men for each area of the city and they even have a site called next door where all the people of the town report stuff and get to know their

In 2001, an event occurred in the United States of America that was life-changing for every American. On September 11, America had been severely attacked by terrorists, leaving behind traumatic memories for many and led to the country having to take initiative. At the time, George W. Bush was president, and he had to take action to this event in which was defining his presidency. Nine days after the attack, Bush gave an address to a joint session of Congress and to the nation. This dramatic address struck home with America, raising confidence and giving hope to the people. One may wonder, how exactly was Bush able to accomplish such a historical address? The usage of various rhetorical devices are present in his speech, allowing him to craft a powerful speech and connect with his audience. Bush establishes Cicero’s five canons of rhetoric throughout his 9/11 speech by achieving each individual requirement differently to present an address in order to adequately address the attack and give America a plan of action.

9/11 could be looked at from many different perspectives. Some may say it was a national terror, and we changed as a nation, but others may agree it had a more personal effect. As for Dick, well he said 9/11 wasn’t a turning point for him in any way. He noted, “for the country, yes, but for me, not so much.” He agreed that it affected how we lived, for example, an increase in airport security, but he knew he would have to get back on a plane soon, and because of the attack, the security would be higher. The risk of a repeat attack was low. He also explained that it was very moving seeing everyone trying to help after the attack had taken place. He concluded, “I think our country came together, and I think there is still patriotism because of

After losing 2,977 lives one fateful September morning, we realized we left the doors to our country wide open to attack. As a result, we ramped up our security and instituted new programs to combat terrorism to make ourselves invulnerable to similar attacks. But as the government began to develop programs within the National Security Agency (NSA) and the Transportation Security Agency (TSA) to prevent such an attack from ever happening again, the government began to infringe on the rights which were laid down in the Constitution by our founding fathers. Although the American government protected its people from another possible attack, the government itself attacked its own people by denying the rights which it formerly recognized.

Suena was walking home and she felt like she was being followed, but she thought it was because of the horror movie she watched the night before. It was about a twenty minute walk for Surena to get home and she often enjoyed but that day she didn’t enjoy it. When she got home there was a note on her fridge from her mother saying she’ll be back in a couple of hours and that there was leftovers in the fridge. She still had that icky feeling that someone was watching her, she kept saying in her head that it was just the horror movie scaring her. Her dog Belle was eating the couch again, when her mom got home she’d be mad. Surena went up stairs to her bedroom and forgot to lock the door that day, when her mother warned her many times before to
