The 9/11 Commission was formed in 2002 after the events of September 11, 2001 to investigate what really happened (Entman & Stonbely, 2018). It was headed by former New Jersey Governor Thomas Keen (Hughes, 2020). The 9/11 attack in America is a series of coordinated terrorist acts that took place on September 11, 2001 in…

The Post-9/11 policy shifts are obviously reactive because all the proposed by the government changes are caused by the attack. Even the creation of the Department of Homeland Security is a response to the dangerous terroristic attack (Post-9/11,2019). In order to avoid or prevent such disastrous terroristic attacks, the government should propose proactive policies. However,…

IT was September 11, 2001, a black Tuesday which was later named as the devils day of the history by our school. I was the student of St. Thomas Middle School, Alabama. As usual, I reached at the school in time in the early morning. I, being a student of the 7th grade, was busy…

Fear is a natural response to life threatening situations and is a built-in behavioral pattern in all human beings. The author of the essay Controlling Irrational Fears After 9/11 extensively quotes Chapman and Harriss article A Skeptical Look at September 11th to construe that the fears generated in America after the 9/11 attacks are largely…

September 11 aroused not only national grief, pride, and rage, but also a prevalent feeling of frustration at the way things were since the fall of communism.

At the beginning of the speech, he talks about the Twin Tower attack that took place one year prior to Roys speech. While emphasizing the impact…

September 11th, 2001 (9/11), is a day that will long be remembered in small ways and in big ways. That morning, many families said goodbyes to their loved ones, not realizing it would be their last time together. On a larger scale, 9/11 will be remembered as an event that reshaped the mindset and perspectives…

According to the BBC and British newspapers, several of the nineteen men are still alive and have been spotted. A father of one of the supposed terrorists said in an interview that he had spoken to his son after the attack saying that he was fine. The father stated that his son’s passport was taken…

1.0 In this project paper I have chosen to write about terrorism, more specifically about the attack in September 11, 2001. Terrorism is the use of violence against civilians to achieve a desired effect by spreading fear. While physical terrorist acts cause increased fear, the underlying fear that such acts will be brought to life…

Baudrillard grapples with this in his theoretical writings. It is in this world that images, signs, and codes engulf objective reality; signs become more real than reality and stand in for the world they erase (Wilcox, 346- 47). This pseudo-world of simulacra and the perceived loss of the real in DeLillos novels obstruct his characters…
