Abstract
This paper discusses the findings in the report by the 9-11 Commission, which was formed and charged with investigating the attack and making recommendations for the future. The writer maintains that the Commission was bipartisan and made up of ten members who issued the required report, which has since been widely disseminated so that the public can judge the job done, can understand the problems found, and can weigh in on efforts made to correct those problems for the future.

Abstract
The paper discusses how intelligence reforms prior to 9/11 were primarily implemented in response to intelligence community failures in the context of the Cold War rivalry between the United States and the Soviet Union. In contrast, the paper discusses how intelligence reforms after 9/11 were primarily implemented in response to intelligence community failures to detect, track, and arrest members of Islamic fundamentalist terror cells operating in Western Europe and the United States.

From the Paper
"Comparing and contrasting intelligence reform pre-9/11 with intelligence reform after 9/11 reveals a number of important differences. Intelligence reforms prior to 9/11 were primarily implemented in response to intelligence community failures in the context of the Cold War rivalry between the United States and the Soviet Union. In contrast, intelligence reforms after 9/11 were primarily implemented in response to intelligence community failures to detect, track, and arrest members of Islamic..."

Abstract
The paper analyzes how successful airlines like Southwest, JetBlue and the other low cost carriers have basically kept their costs down and satisfied the consumer demand for reasonably priced airline travel while maintaining consistent profits. The paper explores the significant factors that keep the major airlines in debt. The paper concludes that the major airlines need to make drastic changes, such as control costs and capacity, in order to overcome their financial predicaments.

From the Paper
"Moving into the twenty-first century, commercial aviation has been on a steady decline. Profits have dried up and overall passenger travel miles are down. To make matters worse, the lingering effects of September 11, 2001 have almost completely ruined the entire commercial aviation industry. United Airlines is in the brink of nearly shutting its doors forever. American Airlines, Continental, Delta, US Airways, American West and Northwest all are experiencing their worst financial difficulties in their corporate histories."

Abstract
This paper evaluates the cost of terrorism from a global perspective. The writer examines the cost of terrorism, specifically those of September 11th. He then evaluates other terrorist threats that currently exist around the world and defends the United States? current position on pre-emptive attacks on nations deemed supporters of terrorism.

From the Paper
"Economic costs of terrorism pail in comparison to the loss of human life. However, economic hardships that have been sustained as a result of terrorism are very real as well. The cost of the Word Trade Centers and surrounding buildings was over 21 billions dollars. That cost ends up being paid by the various companies that insured the twin towers. As a result of such large claims placed against them, many insurers are raising rates. Specifically, high-risk facilities such as Seattle's Space Needle and the Empire State Building may face insurance premiums hikes of over 50%. This raises the aggregate cost of doing business for the firms and individuals who own those buildings. Therefore, as insurers raise rates for all commercial properties rise, we expect to see a reduction in expansion rates for new office buildings. It may be difficult for firms to find and pay for highly desirable urban office space in the near future if this trend continues."

Abstract
The tragic events of September 11, 2001 will have many lasting effects on the United States. One sector that has been especially affected is the economy. This paper explores how, and why, this has occurred and predicts what we can expect of the economy in the future.

From the Paper
"One of its biggest effects, however, has been felt in the United States economy. The U.S. economy before September 11 was projected to grow at an annual rate of 1.7 percent in 2001. Americans were used to the private sector dominating the economy while the public sector's role dwindled. However, post-September 11, the pendulum has swung the other way. Because the United States faces the threat of more terrorist attacks on its own soil and sustained military action abroad, the public sector has to step in and control the economy. To put this into perspective, in the 1990s, the size of the military capital stock declined, while the amount of private business capital stock rose 31%. The S&P 5000 has grown by only 16% since its 52-week low."

Abstract
This paper states that, immediately after September 11, the negative impact of that day's horrible terrorist attacks was felt in the gaming industry especially in casinos that are dependent on air travel which decreased markedly. The author feels that, even during tough economic times, Americans tend to gamble more. The paper cites various stock analysis reports that are favorable to the industry.

From the Paper
"Newer, alternative destinations for casinos, however, have helped other gaming industry companies. Slot machine companies like International Game Technology (IGT) have prospered since September 11. As Christopher Palmeri writes, "Tough economic times often prompt states to seek new sources of revenue, such as casinos. The 1970s brought Atlantic City, and the early 1990s saw riverboat gambling spread in the Midwest. Casino gambling is now being considered in eight states, most notably New York, Pennsylvania, and Kentucky."

Abstract
The paper describes the measures that have been taken in order to secure the lives of Americans in the new reality of world terrorism. The paper describes the USA Patriot Act signed by President George Bush and discusses its problems and flaws. The paper offers further recommendations as to how to prevent future terrorist attacks.

From the Paper
"On September 11, 2001, America was changed forever. From out of the ruins of the World Trade Center, and over the unmarked graves of nearly three thousand innocent people, a new world took shape. It was a world in which the citizens of the United Sates found themselves suddenly vulnerable to the murderous plots of a handful of fanatics. A trip to the mall, a drive over a bridge, a meeting at the office: an everyday event could spell disaster. Americans were discovering for the first time what so many around the globe had known for years, that the scenes of daily life could become the settings of terror. "

Abstract
The paper relates that in the past few decades, no other tragedies in the U.S. have had a deeper impact than the events that took place on September 11, 2001. The paper reveals that this historic date marks the largest attack to Americans on United States soil by international terrorists. The paper discusses the statistics that indicate that the rescue workers at the scene worked effortlessly to save what lives they could. The paper notes that this event and the reactions that followed by police enforcement also gathered the attention of the media, government officials, and federal law enforcement agencies. The paper then examines how government officials and federal law enforcement officials have reevaluated certain prehistoric laws in light of the events of September 11, 2001.

From the Paper
"In the past few decades, no other tragedies in the U.S. have had a deeper impact than the events that took place on September 11, 2001. This historic date marks the largest attack to Americans on United States soil by international terrorists. In the short time that it took for the attacks to occur, over 2,700 innocent lives were lost. Out of the injured victims, New York City rescue personnel successfully evacuated over 26,000 individuals from the World Trade Center complex and over 200,000 located in the area surrounding the World Trade Center. As horrific as these..."
