The Threat Of The United States

5 Ways You Give The Government Control” written by Kenneth Coats shows how the devices we use daily slowly take over individuals lives. Coats states, “Today, most people in the United States carry a mobile phone that accompanies them wherever they go. We use them for everything...This essentially makes them the perfect tracking and bugging devices”. Although electronic devices are known to be safe, they allow outside people to figure out individuals personal life. Due to the need for devices such as cell phones, each individual has a high chance of being socially stalked once in their lifetime. Coats then states, “Not only do intelligence agencies gather information via mobile companies, but… your phone can be hacked using spyware. Even if your phone is turned off, it can be remotely accessed to recorded conversations and take photographs”. This issue causes a panic due to the wide spread of inappropriate pictures and private conversations in one's life. Even though technology is viewed as a privileged, it is also taking away people's lives without their

Did communism pose a domestic threat to America? Why or why not? Yes, communism posed a threat to America. First you would need to know what communism really is and how socialism ties in with it (know your enemy). How they operate and what their goals are. One of the goals of the communist movement, was the destruction of capitalism.

For staging hunger strikes, Paul and several other suffragists were forcibly fed in a tortuous manner. Prison officials relocated Paul to a sanitarium in hopes of getting her declared insane; during this time, while Paul was separated from the others, they had her evaluated to see if she was mentally ill. One of the psychologist, so eloquently, suggested that “insanity can be mistaken for courage.” Most of the doctors did not believe Paul to be insane, only depressed and hungry. When news of the prison conditions and hunger strikes became publicized, Americans began demanding the release of these women. This sympathy for the imprisoned women brought an enormous amount of support to the cause of women’s suffrage.

After the Revolution, the buildings and grounds were put in order, and the hospital was ready for patients in 1791. Prior to the successful openings, in 1787 and 1788, a number of bodies for the purposes of dissection by medicals students were dug up from a lower class burial-ground in potter’s field. These were legitimate fields for corpses. The medical students and also known as “resurrectionists” began to invade private cemeteries. The people were angered, and the medical profession was looked upon with a negligible reverence by the people at large. (Sullivan, 1927)

On February 26, at 7:11 pm it was a rainy night in Sanford, Florida when a neighborhood watchman, 28-year-old mixed Hispanic George Zimmerman, calls 911 to report a suspicious person. “This guy looks like he’s up to no good, or he’s on drugs or something. It’s raining and he’s just walking around, looking about” (Genius). That suspicious person was 17-year-old African American Trayvon Martin returning home after stopping by a local convenience store to purchase, the now infamous, Arizona Ice tea and Skittles. When the 911 dispatcher asked Zimmerman if he was following Martin he replied “yeah.” The dispatcher in return said, “Okay, we don’t need you to do that” (Chicago Tribune). That call would last four minutes.

Current Event: According to The New York Times, On May 27, 2016 Argentina’s last dictator, and 14 other former military officials have been sentenced to prison for the disappearance of more than 100 people during the Operation Condor conspiracy to hunt down dissidents across South America. This all began in the 1970’s when six South American dictators started the Operation Condor and used their “secret police networks” to track down rivals who were across the borders. Many of the bodies of these victims have still not been found and the prosecutors continue to try and cover up the deaths today. The court sentenced the leader Reynaldo Bignone 20 years in prison and the other 14 received eight to 25 years. One of the many victims was Maria Claudia Irueta Goyena, who was the daughter-in-law of Argentine poet Juan Gelman. Maria was pregnant when she was kidnapped and held inside an auto shop for months before someone in the air force came and took her to Uruguay. After the birth of her daughter she went missing and then years later her daughter Macarena Gelman discovered her own identity. "Operation Condor affected my life, my family," Chilean Laura Elgueta told The Associated Press outside the court room. Her brother, Luis Elgueta, had taken refuge in Buenos Aires from Gen. Augusto Pinochet 's forces, only to be forcibly disappeared in Buenos Aires in 1976 as part of Operation Condor (The New York Times, 2016).

Technology is in everything we do from using our home refrigerator, washer, cellular device, automobile, and or computer systems. When using certain devices you pass information to others pertaining to personal and private information. This information or metadata could be a bank account or credit card number, pin, and or password that we unconsciously share. We randomly give away this information at a dentist or doctor’s office, the local liquor store, or when we visit social media sites like Instagram, Facebook, Yahoo, and or Google. This information is all collected, stored, and tracked by big brother, and what are they doing with it, is the metadata being secured, American’s may never know.

The continuing successful and attempted terrorist attacks in the USA and the endless wars and conflicts in which we are involved are a manifestation of political, economical and imperialistic failures in Arab lands.  This was supported by Western society with the United States as the largest of powers.  Instability, oppression, poverty and political alienation that the citizens of many Islamic-Arab nations experienced within the last hundred years have led to major hatred of the United States by the people of many Arab nations.  These sources of hatred can be viewed as remote causes of the endless terror attacks and conflicts around the globe.  Through the analysis of these causes, it is possible to find ways to avoid such

of government, so vicious in itself, has become even more so…The Assembly, by means of its committees constantly oversteps…Nearly all the cities…have been founded in defiance of the laws…” Louis XVI did not agree with the opinion that France could be governed by a ‘National Assembly’ because of its importance and sheer size. “He placed his confidence in the wise men of that Assembly who would recognize that it is easier to destroy a form of government than to reconstruct one on totally different principles.” The king could not see any value in what was being discussed by the National Assembly and was convinced they would eventually crumble as a political system. He then goes on to ask the French public whether or not they were happy with

During the late 19th century, America was seen as a flourishing nation which provided a desired relocation for millions of people. From these mass migrations into the United States, citizens developed concern from the fluctuations between economic depression and prosperity and if the nation could afford absorbing than many people (Schaller, Schulzinger, Selfa, Greenwood, Kirk, Purcell, & Dean p. 619) Migrations haven’t stopped in the 21st century and today more than ever there is increasing foreign threats because of the negative sentiment many countries have towards US policy. From this ever changing world with higher threat levels what has homeland security evolved into, and why is it important in Texas amongst the rest of the southern states that share a border with Mexico? With the combination of international airports, a large coastline, and a long stretch of border Texas can potentially be vulnerable from numerous foreign threats because of its sheer size and lack of oversight of many locations.

When we hear the word terrorists, we only think of the people trying to destroy the United States. The U.S is used to being admired as being a great country, and when they send troops into other countries and attack them, they expect them not to fight back. However, on September 11, 2001 there was a series of attacks against the United States that left the country in fear. The country was in utter shock and disbelief as they watched four airlines hijacked by suicide bombers take down the World Trade Center in New York, part of the Pentagon as well as a third plane that was take down before it reached Washington D.C. So when the United States invades another country people don 't consider it terrorism, they believe we are simply defending ourselves. The United States is one of the most powerful countries in the world having money, power, greed, freedom of religion, and more. Our democracy along with our presidential leaders want to take out any potential threats thus trying to take control over other countries is what leads to terrorist to attack.

We walk amongst each other weaving in and out of eachother’s lives. To our disadvantage, we all wear a distinct expiration date plastered upon our face. As a society, we struggle day to day fighting a battle in which we know the outcome of. To our dismay, time is not the enemy but our very own DNA is the true culprit. Today, we come together as a community to fight for our right at the longest life available.

People in Washington, D.C. watched the third plane fly into the side of the Pentagon. This caused a structural collapse of part of the concrete building. Just around one hundred and twenty five people were killed and around sixty four people on the plane were killed (history.com). These attacks were financed by the Osama bin Laden’s terrorist organization (history.com). They made these attacks because they were retaliating for the support from America for Israel. Some of the terrorist that were involved with this took flying lessons in the United States for more than a year. There were a total of nineteen terrorist that were included with these attacks. This day is one that had a huge impact on America (history.com)

They can launch the EMP attack in such a way that would leave us clueless as to whom is to blame for it. EMP devices could be launched from container ships off the coast of the US, as to leave no trail to a country of origin. The containership could then be blown up as to leave no evidence behind (Source A). The enemy, no matter how small or large they may be, can ultimately use this method to make sure we remain bewildered. There are many benefits to launching such an attack. One being that an EMP launched from the coast would need to travel a significantly shorter distance to reach the United States. It would also mean less time for US defenses to

Yes, I think the US has a duty to help out neighboring countries in times of needs. The US needs as many allies it could get, so doing favors in return will help gain support. It's not necessary for the US to intervene every time, but in times of serious situations where countries need support is appropriate for the US to step in. Threats of war is an example of when the US should step
