I’m writing a paper on the impacts of 9/11 and would appreciate some candid feedback. Please answer the following questions by clicking on the comments field.
Thanks in advance!
- What impact did the events of 9/11 had on your sense of security/vulnerability?
- Do you agree or disagree with the U.S. response to the attacks (Afghanistan not Iraq)?
- Which aspects of the U.S. response do you feel have been most successful and effective?
- Which aspects of the U.S. response do you feel have been least effective or even counter-productive?
- Do you feel safer now than you did after 9/11? Why or why not?
- What areas of vulnerability do you think have not been addressed that should be?
- Do you agree or disagree with the term “War on Terrorism?” If you disagree on the term, what would you suggest as an alternative?
- Do you think the “war” will ever be “won”, and all terrorist threats completely eliminated?
- Do you agree with holding captured suspects indefinitely, without charge? Or do you think suspects should enjoy due process and be tried in civilian courts?
- What are your thoughts on secret prisons, extraordinary rendition, and the Enemy Combatants at Guantanamo Bay?
- Do you agree with the rationale behind the invasion of either Afghanistan or Iraq or both?
- Are citizens of other countries at all justified in their negative view of America’s stand in the World?
Finally, do you feel that the further we get away from 9/11, the less people want to think about the threat of terrorism?
