The Practical, Psychological, Economical, Physical Impacts Made by 9/11

The number of hate crimes against Muslims in the United States went up after the 9/11 attacks and it remains a huge problem today. According to Disha, “the numbers of anti-Muslim hate crimes

Many People are still affected emotionally by September 11 2001 today. A huge number of people are still facing mental health issues. They are trying very hard to forget about the past and move on with there every day life. Many still fear that there might be another terror attack in the United States. The American psychological association found that people living in New York who have experienced the World Trade Center attack are showing more mental health problems more than any other place. Many people feel that we should honor our love one and the police and fireman that lost their lives because of 9/11. The National September 11 memorial and Museum at the World Trade Center has been established to honor the dead and respect the historic site of America’s tragic loss. The memorial was opened on September 11 2011. It consist of two huge pools with the nation’s largest human=made waterfalls located on the site between the two fallen towers. The name of those who died at the WTC, pentagon, and in Pennsylvania aboard flight 93 . The Museum presents a gallery that tells the story of 9/11. It contains artifacts, photographs and multimedia display.

When the terrorist attacks occurred on 9/11 it did more than just affect the comfort level of American citizens. It had an all around impact on how this country will be run for years to come. The one economic impact that I will concentrate on is that the attacks, arguably, but directly effected the U.S. GDP (Gross Domestic Product) and how the national budget will be handled from that day forward.

The September 11 attacks were set of four terrorist attacks controlled by al-Qaeda, an Islamic terrorist group. On September 11, 2001, four aircrafts were hijacked by the terrorists; two of the planes hit Twin towers in New York, third hit the Pentagon and the fourth one crashed into a field near Shanksville, Pennsylvania (“9/11 Attacks”). The September 11 attacks had several long-term negative effects that include Social effects, Psychological effects, Physical health effects, Economic effects and many more. But of all those effects, Economic effects were the most suffered ones. The 9/11 attacks triggered the devastation of American economy (Miley). Although it has been 12 years since the episode and America has recovered a lot, American

    On September 11, 2001, Islamic extremists stole four airplanes and carried out suicide attacks against the United States. Two of the airplanes were flown into the twin towers in New York City, the third airplane hit the Pentagon outside Washington, D.C., and the fourth airplane crashed in a field in Pennsylvania. Known as 9/11, the attacks resulted in extensive death and destruction, triggering the United States to create major changes in their security and terrorism protocols. While everyone agrees that what happened on 9/11 was terrible, many believe that the changes in America’s security protocols are not for the best. How 9/11 affected America’s security protocols was for the worse, it caused: privacy invasion for foreign and American civilians in airports, immigration laws increased out of fear, and discrimination and racism towards Arab civilians.

The attacks of 9/11 affected the United States by increasing discrimination, endangering the health of many Americans, hurting the economy and changing foreign and security policies.

Thousands of people came together to volunteer and show support to surrounding business owners which lost all their belongings and inventory. Sometimes a simple as retrieving death certificate was increasingly challenging because without a body, the process could take years. Lawyers, judges, and public defenders teamed together to make the situation run smoother with less struggles. Canceling was also something provided because many people had issues still dealing with the loss of a family member or traumatized by the experience. September 11 had a huge impact on how us as humans saw the world at that moment and changed our own priorities to give a helping hand to those who were in a more complex situation. Although there was an abundance of support the US had to make changes on who to associate with and didn 't take this attack as something that can be shut off. Airport securities became more aware on who enters and leaves the country. Another words, at the end of the day I would security is put first then any other thing because if someone is willing to give their life to attack the nation we shouldn 't take incidents like these rightly and retaliate with full force.

America has experienced some events that has made an impact on all of our lives. Take the attack on 9/11 for example; terrorists attacked the United States using planes. They hijacked four airplanes in mid-flight. The terrorists flew two of the planes into two skyscrapers at the World Trade Center in New York City. The impact caused the buildings to catch fire and collapse. Another plane destroyed part of the Pentagon (the U.S. military headquarters) in Arlington, Virginia. The fourth plane crashed in Shanksville, Pennsylvania. Officials believe that the terrorists on that plane intended to destroy either the White House or the U.S. Capitol. Passengers was the plane fought the terrorists and prevented them from reaching their goal. In all, nearly 3,000 people were killed in the 9/11 attacks. This attack reminded many people of the attack of Pearl Harbor. Both were very catastrophic events that changed U.S. History and America in a way that makes us realize that we need to be strong.

The most obvious change sense 9/11 is U.S airport security and regulations. One of the biggest reasons why 9/11 was such a success for the Al-Qaeda group hijacking of the planes was 100% the airports unsuccsessful security. They were able to board the planes and go through metal detectors at the checkpoint. Thats why just a few short months after 9/11 occured the United States declared the TSA (Transportation Security Administration) is improving public safety while traveling through major transportation areas like airports. Many major airports have TSA, meanwhile some not so large airports have private agencies that are similar to TSA. Americans have had to undergo significant changes in their travel habits and this change seemed to be the

9/11 drastically changed security protocols, made Americans question their safety and heightened our awareness of terrorist attacks. The terrorist attacks of 9/11 were very devastating for our country. Several terrorists part of Al Qaeda hijacked multiple commercial jets and crashed two into the world trade centers, one into the pentagon and one into a field in Shanksville, PA. “Some 3,000 persons died or were missing as a result of the most devastating terrorist episode in U.S. history.”

On the morning of September 11, 2001, an Islamic terrorist group known as al-Qaeda carried out a series of four attacks on the United States. The most well-known attack is when two commercial airline planes crashed into the Twin Towers in New York City. Many innocent lives were lost and families were torn apart. While many Americans were determined to show their resilience towards the attacks, this is a day many Americans will never forget. Although the attacks happened sixteen years ago, Americans are still dealing with the impacts these attacks have had on life in America. The 9/11 attacks have had several long-lasting effects on everyday life in America, some of which include an increase in airport security, a change in national security, and an increase the fear of terrorism.

A big social change that occurred as a result of 9/11 was the rise in Islamophobia. This is the dislike or prejudice against Islam or Muslims. There was also a rise in hate crimes after the attack. Terrorism became an act that a lot of people now only associate with Muslim people. As a result of 9/ people have become a lot less trusting of each other. The security at airport and borders also got a lot stricter as a result of the attack.

What event or day could change how the United States citizens go about their everyday activities? Life has not been the same after that fatal day in September of 2001. The day is known as 9/11. This attack may have knocked the United States down briefly, but it has caused us to stand stronger for the freedom that we cherish. You may expect terrorism to happen places like Pakistan, India, the Middle East or South American but not here on American soil. This is not the first time that the United States has been targeted for terrorism. The United States has been the target for terrorist attacks more than you know. 9/11 helps us to remember that the United States is vulnerable to attacks just like other countries. Could 9/11 have been prevented? Did government agencies share information freely? Some people think that if the different government agencies would have shared information instead of having barriers that this terrible event may not have happened.

The September 11th attacks have had a profound effect on American history. Often referred to as “9/11”, these attacks were comprised of a group of organized terrorists known as Al-Qaeda. This extreme Islamic group assaulted several landmarks in New York City, Washington D.C, and the state of Pennsylvania. In New York City, two airliner jets were hijacked with passengers aboard and slammed into the World Trade Center. “The next attack resulted in a plane colliding into the Pentagon, government building; the last attack was in Pennsylvania when a plane crashed into a field. In total, 3,000 people died on September 11th, 2001” (History.com Staff). The September 11th-attacks have affected airport security by the new training of flight attendants, the formation of the Transportation Security Administration and new technical advances to keep up with increased terror threats.

Terrorism can be seen as a large-scale psychological attack against the majority of the population. Consequently, such an attack is bound to effect change in the lives of many Americans. Many of tjhe major changes were implemented or observed after 9/11. The major difference (other than the sheer scale of the attack) between 9/11 and those previously mentioned was the source. Previously, as seen in the Centennial Olympic Park and Oklahoma City bombings, the perpetrator was a domestic “lone wolf” who wished to carry out a specific agenda. Americans were undoubtedly grief-stricken following those attacks, but the fear created by the attacks seemed temporary and less real for a large portion of the population. In fact, 25 years before the Oklahoma City bombing, Senator McClellan of Arkansas stated that "Bombing, terrorism and sabotage are not subjects which have been historically and traditionally familiar to the American people". After 9/11, Americans were shaken awake when foreigners were able to damage such integral parts of the economic and political structure. After the 9/11 attacks, life changed forever for many Americans. A direct response to the attacks, the Transportation Security Administration helps secure air travel to and from America, in the air and on the ground. Today, not a single person can step past check-in at an airport without a comprehensive and thorough
