Abstract
This paper reports that situations of political conflict should draw our eye very quickly to the mass media, to the chance of increased influence over how events are depicted in the interest of persuasion, and the 'propaganda war' that is forever part of political conflict in our time. The author points out that Canadians pride themselves on enjoying relatively free media in comparison with the United States or Britain. The paper states that this 'freedom' or access to more accurate reportage seems to be quite debatable at the present time.

Abstract
This paper explains that, on September 11, 2001, the United States found out that it was vulnerable to massive terrorist attacks from outside its borders, which raised awareness about the dangers of terrorism unlike previous incidents, performed against the United States from outside our country's borders. The author points out that to understand this situation people must study how terrorism emerged as a viable option for those who use it and why the U.S. was not adequately aware of the risk. The paper stresses that people must understand that terrorism works--the colonialists used terrorism against the British during the Revolutionary War, Israel used it in 1947 and terrorism drove U.S.S.R. out of Afghanistan; therefore, America will have to think like terrorists rather than in the ways that have worked in more traditional wars if the U.S. seeks to avoid future attacks.
From the Paper
"This was not the first time we were caught by surprise when we might have noted what was coming. Many people have drawn parallels to Japan's attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941 as having similar characteristics. In both cases, we had warning signs that were misinterpreted or dismissed, and in both cases, an organized group managed to inflict terrible damage with no warning. In both cases we can point to failures of intelligence, with the understanding that it is clearly easier to see these signs after an attack than before it happens."

Abstract
This paper describes the author's immediate thoughts and actions following the September 11, 2001 terrorist attack on the United States. The paper details the author's immediate emotional response to the attack as well as the long-lasting emotional impact and describes how the author and her family responded in the days immediately following the attack.
From the Paper
"As a small child, I remember hearing my grandparents talk about their feelings surrounding Pearl Harbor. Even decades after that fateful attack, there was still a sense of anger and hurt in their voices whenever the topic arose. I also remember thinking that they were entirely too sensitive. How could one event that did not even directly affect them have such a profound effect on their lives, I wondered. Furthermore, when I watched the events of last September unfold before my eyes even as they happened, I continued to wonder the same thing on my own behalf. However, now that nearly seven months have passed since the attack, I am beginning to realize that the effect is direct and I will likely be discussing it with my own grandchildren someday."

Abstract
This paper examines the far-reaching consequences of the September 11,2001 terrorist attack on America. The paper looks at the feelings of shock and disbelief shared by all Americans as well as how the intensity of the emotional and psychological reactions of Americans who lived in New York City or Washington D.C. tended to be more intense than the rest of the country because many of those living in New York or Washington D.C. knew some of the victims, had directly experienced the ferocity of the terrorist attacks, and were caught in the midst of the carnage unleashed.

This paper also looks at how the war on terrorism and the related struggle against the spread of nuclear, chemical and biological weapons have become the central elements of a new US foreign policy since September 11.
From the Paper
"September 11, had a polarizing effect on tolerance in political culture .In fact the tragedy made American political culture more accepting of authoritarian views .The terrorist attacks on the U. S. of Sept. 11, 2001, jolted Americans with the realization that young men filled with hatred of the U. S. could, with limited training and guidance, become focused instruments of mass terror, willing and able to kill thousands of Americans."

Abstract
This paper examines the Universal Declaration of Human Rights' influence the implementation of new policies by the U.S. Government since the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. The paper gives a detailed historical background into the reasons behind the Declaration's initial passage in the General Assembly of the United Nations in 1948. It then goes on to discuss the affects of the terrorist attacks on U.S. policy, and how this is intertwined with the Declaration. The author looks closely at the U.S. Government's proposed Combatting Terrorism Act of 2001 that was introduced as a result of the September 11 terrorist attacks, in light of the 1948 Declaration. Current attempts to introduce new policy that might be in conflict with both the spirit and actual text from the Declaration are also discussed in detail. The author then presents some alternative policies that may mesh with the Declaration and offers some recommendations in light of recent events.
From the Paper
"Another response to the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks was the creation and implementation of the Aviation and Transportation Security Act. The Aviation and Transportation Security Act expanded the number of baggage screeners, imposed standards for their training, and made them federal employees for an interim period of time. Starting in January, 2002, all checked luggage was to be put through special explosives-detecting machines. In addition, the Aviation and Transportation Security Act increased the number of armed federal air marshals flying on domestic flights and required international airlines to turn over advance copies of their passenger lists to United States Customs officials for background checks to weed out suspected terrorists."

Abstract
This paper questions why America was attacked on 9/11 and, in order to understand why America will continue to be a target of terrorism, the paper examines the broader issue of Israeli/Arab enmity in the Middle East. More specifically, the paper discusses the violence between Israelis and Muslims that has triggered the Arab/Israeli wars and how this affects the United States and their relationship to terrorism both on their shores and abroad.
From the Paper
"Neo-conservatives like Rumsfeld (2002) have argued that ultimately, the ideology of mindless hatred that motivates Muslims to blow up innocent people on buses and trains and fly airliners into buildings full of innocent people in the name of "justice" must be repeatedly denounced by every Western government and must be relentlessly discredited through whatever methods necessary. They believe that people who take part in or support such atrocities, or contend that they are legitimate and that their perpetrators are heroic defenders of Islam do not deserve to have their "grievances" addressed by the civilized world."
"American neo-conservatives insist that the military occupation of Iraq must continue indefinitely and that Iran and Syria must be attacked for being state sponsors of terrorism, but this approach has had nightmare consequences. The occupation of Iraq is a fiasco, the Middle East has become dangerously destabilized, and there has been an alarming increase in terrorism worldwide."

Abstract
A reflection upon the absence of meaning in the modern world in the wake of the events of September 11, 2001. It will be argued, through an analysis of three different texts in the crucible of personal experience, that the key element in all three is the human capacity to create myth. In this analysis, the central myths of human experience will be seen to revolve around the act of sacrifice, and the most profound sacrifice is one made for love.

Abstract
The paper attempts to determine what the World Trade Center represented to the American economy and its social fabric, in order to explore how its destruction affected the national consciousness. The paper provides a review of the relevant literature about the background of the twin towers and illustrates how there may not have been a more important structure or trading center for the economy than the World Trade Center. The paper discusses how the twin towers later became a symbol of freedom, liberty, justice and unity, as the tragic event brought the country together.
Outline:
Review and Discussion
Background and Overview
Analysis of Impact of September 11, 2001 on American Consciousness
Conclusion.
From the Paper
"Before the impact of the destruction of the World Trade Center can be understood, it will be useful to know how and why it was created. Interestingly, and contrary to popular belief, the twin towers opened during different years. The original plan to build the World Trade Center was conceived in the early 1960s by the Downtown-Lower Manhattan Development Association. Two of the main people who pushed for the project to be approved were Chase Manhattan Bank chairman David Rockefeller and his brother, and then New York governor, Nelson Rockefeller. The north tower was constructed to completion and opened in December of 1970. The south tower on the other hand did not open until January 1972 (World Trade Center 2006:1-2)."
