Their purposes were the advancement of Islamic transformation throughout the Muslim world and to oppose foreign intervention in the Middle East. Osama bin laden is more notably. Known for his role in authorizing the devastating attacks on 911. Leading up to this most disastrous attack was additional attacks made on the United States as well. Al queda intensified its war against the U.S in august of 1988 when they bombed two us embassies in east Africa, that killed more than 200 people, 12 of those American. In October 2000, Al queda bombed an American guided-missile destroyer in Yemen called, the U.S.S. Cole; this killed 17 Americans. On September 11,2001 19 al queda agents hijacked four passenger planes, driving two into the twin towers in new York city, one onto the pentagon; A fourth plane crashed in Pennsylvania. A total of 3,000 people were killed in these attacks and this crippling loss fueled an extreme outrage and vengeance in America and instituted the death of al queda leaders, But more so the death of Osama bin laden, this manhunt continued for 10 years.
Osama bin laden is dead! Is God glad Osama bin laden is dead? Osama bin laden dead? Is this just another lie from the government? These are only a few of many headliners flooding the web, newspapers, and radio when the news that Osama bin ladin, (the worlds most wanted man) a 10 year long manhunt finally ended with his death at the hands of an u.s navy seal on 5/1/2011. The reactions from many Americans were asto...

...s military. This seemly does not end terriosm , but america’s now stronger, and more effective in winning it. Troops are said to be withdrawing and returning home in july. Sure there will be some retaliation, ranging from incompetenty assaults to well thought out thorough attacks, that’s expected. Many attacks are expected to be carried out in the name of Osama bin ladin would have happened regardless of if Osama bin laden was killed. His death may give terrorist additional motivation but attacks from them would happen regardless. In light of this, the greater disadvantage would be to not have persude him bin laden: That would have been looked down upon as weakness and vaulnerbility. This historic event has had a profound impact throughout the would. And may not be the end to that chapter but is indefintly put a stamp on the U.S response to global terrorism.
On 26 February 1993 at 12:17, a yellow RYDER van detonated on level B-2 of the World Trade Center North tower. What was first believed to be a below grade transformer explosion turned into an extensive test of New York Cities Incident Command capabilities. Everyone involved had an intricate part in handling this situation. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) was able to get all support assets there promptly to assist in rescue operations. The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) discovered information on the vehicle used. The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) used all of the intelligence gathered to apprehend and convict those responsible. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) conducted cleanup of chemical and biological hazards that were left behind from the blast. Numerous agencies worked together to solve the first terrorist attack on American soil and clean up a disaster of epic proportions.
...cleanly ending the war was the wrong way to approach the end of war because there were so many open ends with the Iraqis that could possibly lead to conflict in the future; however since the war was expensive, costing 620 billion dollars, and because three hundred ninety American soldiers had already died. After tying up loose ends with handling the Iraqi army and their leader Hussein, General Schwarzkopf, who played a major role and served as a key leader to the American army during Operation Desert Shield and Storm, made his way to where Saddam Hussein was so he could witness his surrender, however Hussein’s actions to follow this event required President Bush to put in place “no-fly zones” to protect the Kurds in Northern Iraq and the Shiites in the South. Eventually Operation Desert Storm, the biggest military operation since Vietnam, came to a successful end.
Osama bin Laden was an adversary of the West for years and it was known to the whole world. Unfortunately, he took it a little further by having two planes fly into the World Trade Center, one into the Pentagon and another plane possibly for the White House. As we all know, this is the unforgettable day of September 11, 2001. Thousands of Americans were innocently murdered that day and in our own country by a terrorist organization. The United States of America would not stand for this and rapidly sought out Osama Bin Laden for what he had done to us. This is the day that caused the United States to accelerate the search and destruction efforts of bin Laden. Soon after September 11th, the United States was very involved in Afghanistan in trying to find him.
The September 11th attacks made us united as one powerful person who can stand up from the ruins of thousands pounds of metal and fight so that we wont have to be in ruins again. In the recent videos Osama bin Laden and his colleagues are talking about the power of Islam and the attacks on Twin Towers. It seems like Osama bin Laden and other radicals are ready for “Jihad” and they are ready to win. They say that Allah is on their side and people around the world want to learn more about Islam since the September 11th attacks. A good example was John Walker, an American who was with Taliban army man when he was captured. He was studying Muslim traditions in Pakistan where he joined Taliban. The other day I was watching “Dennis Miller Live” where I heard Dennis Miller talk about John Walker, he said that his parents should give him more then just spanking. This showed me that even today almost five months of 9/11 people still talk about it.

In conclusion to the fall of the war and the dropping of both bombs, I believe that if we didn’t bring the war to an end that it would have gone on for a much longer time. Even though it destroyed both cities completely and many people died from it, I think many more people would have died if the United States wouldn’t have dropped it. With the creation of the department, we have further educated ourselves with nuclear weapons, and the United States have one of the defense system and a grand nuclear and energy department in today 's time since the creation of the Manhattan Project.
...”. He further claims that bin Laden’s death was a great achievement and “we’ve disrupted terrorists’ attacks and strengthened our homeland”, but “his death is not the end of our effort”. In order to justify the need for military troops to remain in Afghanistan, he stated that “we must remain vigilant at home and abroad”.
...ots and in effect saved a great many lives, however Edward Snowden has stated that “Bathtub falls and police officers kill more Americans than terrorism, yet we've been asked to sacrifice our most sacred rights for fear of falling victim to it.” We are in more danger of death by falling out of our bathtubs of being killed by the people who “protect” us than we are by being killed by a terrorist, and yet our government would ignore that, and use terrorism as a false pretense to freelance monitor its people.
We all heard of 9/11. I mean who hasn’t heard of 9/11, do you guys know who planned and attacked the Twin Towers, the Pentagon and try to hit the U.S Capitol. It is Osama Bin Laden the dead terrorist and the leader of Al Qaeda.

He was born in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia in 1957 or 1958.
In 2014, the death of Eric Garner in New York City raised controversial conversations and highlighted the issues of race, crime, and policing in neighborhoods that tend to be poor and racially isolated. Garner, an unarmed black man, was killed after being tackled and held in a “chokehold.” According to the AP Polls in December 2014, “Police killings of unarmed blacks were the most important news stories of 2014.” The problem is that young black men are targeted by police officers in which they have responded with the misuse of force and policy brutality. It is evident that this issue affects many people nationwide. The civilians do not trust the police department and the justice system because they hold the perceptions that police officers are immune from prosecution despite their actions. In particular, black individuals, specifically black males, do not feel safe in the presence of police officers because they are not held accountable for their mistakes.

The pros I am going to talk about are: The U.S had many alliances, it would give the U.S a reputation as a strong country, and also land could be gained. The cons I am going to talk about are: Loss of money, Casualties, and also the distraction from other problems.
