A Decade of Terror

Persuasion
Specific Purpose:
The purpose of this project is to persuade my listeners that since
September 11, 2001 America as we know it, is a much less safer
nation.
I.
September 11, 2001 changed the historical landscape of America forever. Since the tragic
events of 911 the United States of America is a much less safer nation. In order to have a better
understanding of the historical landscape of how America has changed I will be focusing on three
key elements. First, how have the attacks of 911 impacted America’s viewpoint of the world.
Secondly, we will investigate how 911 has affected personal liberties and freedom in the United
States. Finally, we will investigate the question where does America go from here.

V.
911 has imposed upon America a decade of terror. The United States since September 11,
2001 has a very different viewpoint of the world. America looks at the outside world as almost
an “us against the world” complex. Another disturbing side effect of the attacks of 911 is the basic
fact that American’s have seen many of its civil liberties and freedoms taken away. One needs
only to look at the new security regulations at American airports to know that we can not go whereever we please, whenever we please anymore. Finally, we discussed the important issue of where
does America go from here. What course in American history will we take. Will America feel the
need to continue to broker peace throughout the world through war, or will she win the war on terror
by remaining vigilant at home and securing our own national borders. Only time will tell. But it is
a fact that America has many difficult decisions to make in the next few years in order to avoid
another decade of terror.

Mr. Scheef
September 11, 2001 changed the historical landscape of America forever. Since the tragic
events of 911 the United States of America is a much less safer nation. In order to have a better
understanding of the historical landscape of how America has changed I will be focusing on three
key elements. First, how have the attacks of 911 impacted America’s viewpoint of the world.
Secondly, we will investigate how 911 has affected personal liberties and freedom in the United
States. Finally, we will investigate the question where does America go from here.
According to Professor Jerod C. Wilson author of The World’s Enemy.com stated in his research
that since September 11, 2001 “America’s viewpoint of the world” had significantly changed. The
United States prior to 911 looked at the world as whole and as a socio-economic placement that every
member of the free world needed and accepted. But at 9:23 a.m. EDT that perspective of the world
changed America’s viewpoint of the world forever. Roger Dean Hodges author of America’s Big
Miscalculation described America’s viewpoint of the world as being naïve and focused only on
the economic implications of the society, and on September 11, 2001 that all abruptly ended and America
was instantly transformed into a paranoid, “Who is out to do us harm” mode.” 911 for the first time since
World War II, impacted Uncle Sam by forcing it to become paranoid. To illustrate this point lets examine
this diagram entitled (911 Impacts America). Here we see America’s viewpoint of the world in the mid
1900’s from 1941 through 1956. The United States has by now fought and won two wars, one in the Pacific
and the other in Korea. America’s viewpoint of the world is through the eyes of being the world’s great and
only super power. Let’s now investigate the viewpoint that America had of the world from the transformation
of Soviet Union up to the fall of 2001. The 1960’s saw the rebirth of the former Soviet Union as a direct
threat to the United States. America and the Russians viewed each other as direct threats to each others
society and the world. As we see in this diagram, that once the world witnessed the fall of the Soviet Union,
America’s next enemy was about to raise its ominous head and strike. Terrorism had just replaced
Communism as Americas reason to not trust the world around them. America had become a paranoid
society.
