International Security Course–Fall  2020

Look into terrorism 19 years after 9/11

9/11 attacks tear apart the national security of the United States and indubitably split its  national security’s history in two eras; in post 9/11 homeland moved forward swiftly in order to restructure security affairs, law enforcement and intelligent services, during this period the U.S. has been shifting their fear for strength. Nowadays the U.S. has demonstrated capability to curb terrorist attacks as a result of enormous investments and improvements in intelligence, spent billions of dollars in security measures and offensive actions, military financial, cyber and other against terrorist attacks, those actions are really necessary from the government to offer safe and peace in some way for people, who remained 9/11 attacks with sorrow and outrage.

Despite of terrorist groups such as Isis and Al-Qaeda have lost their territory and have struggled during these years to bring back their warfare, new ways of terrorist attacks have been developing thus new concerns came up for homeland, and once again the U.S. must reinvent itself in how to fight against cyber-attacks, nuclear and biological weapons also devastating technologies that anyone can access so easy, unfortunately greatest advance in technology have seen how insane minds are using this valuable tool hurting international security around the world, maybe is a good moment to analyze which is the best way to take away this unfair warfare.

Currently the world has advance technological weapons, air drones, even there are already artificial intelligence, always creating new ways of destroy and keeping in wars that just bring poverty, deaths, starving and broken economies for major countries, what is coming up after that?  why mankind since its creation only matter how to destroy others? when this preposterous warfare is going to go to the end?

  1. Kevinn: A very broad-ranging “think piece” post. I had a bit of trouble following the English, but I certainly got the general point you were trying to make. We will be discussing this in class this week.
