From the Paper:

"Although national security and terrorism has always been and issue for the United States government, it is an issue that most of us as citizens never really put too much thought into until 9/11. 9/11 made Americans see that terrorism on a massive scale could happen to us, as it does in areas such as the West bank. And this new realization caused fear and panic in citizens who once felt safe and sheltered from the problems of the rest of the world. With this new feeling of insecurity, Americans wanted their government to protect them. The United Stated Government in response made national security a priority on a level that we have never seen in recent times and implemented new measures to keep us all safe."
