Problem
Think about some terrorist acts that have occurred between the 1980s and the present day. This is where we will begin:
The bombings of the US embassies in Beirut and Kuwait occurred in 1983.
1988: To launch attacks, Osama bin Laden reorganizes Al Qaeda in Pakistan.
September 11th, 1993: Bombing of the World Trade Center
1995: Bombing in Oklahoma City
Bombings in Nairobi and Sar Es Salaam, Tanzania, in 1998
The World Trade Center Bombings of September 11, 2001
The year 2001 marks the start of bioterrorism, which includes the anthrax letters and the warnings issued by Bill Gates.
The bombings of the 2013 Boston Marathon
2018: Tragic Shooting at Pittsburgh Synagogue
After that, choose three items from the following and come up with a comprehensive response:
1. Give your reasons for thinking that terrorism on a global scale is reversible.
2. Now is the time to examine the United States' role as global "policeman."
3. Determine whether the safety and prosperity of the United States depend on a stable Middle East.
4. Would terrorism cease if American forces were to leave the Middle East tomorrow? For what reasons?
5. Determine if countering terrorism requires resorting to military action. Is there any other option that could work? Which approach is more effective and why?
