Respond to my Classmate’s Post. Your responses should be
substantive in nature, meaning you should present discourse by
asking questions of your peers (how did they arrive at their
conclusion or what was the premise of their argument). You can
challenge one another and present an alternative analysis. All of
this should be supported by the research of scholarly, peer-
reviewed articles, and authoritative reporting (government).
CLASSMATE’S POST
In an attempt to answer the question about 9/11, it's difficult to
reflect on a day when so many people lost their lives in the
worst terrorist attack on American soil in history. It's difficult
to opine whether it could have been prevented or not. One issue
I do believe is that, if President Bush had not made the decision
to ground all the planes, there is the distinct possibility that
more lives could have been lost. I think it's easy to look at
these types of situations in hindsight. As Fred Borch (2003)
notes in his article in the Journal of Military History, "There
can be no discussion of whether that attacks...resulted from an
'intelligence failure' without defining the phrase. Does it mean
these events were intelligence failures because information had
been collected (or was available) that, if properly analyzed and
disseminated to those in authority, would have provided tactical
warning of the attack?" Yes, there were previous attacks on
American warships and the World Trade Center, but intelligence
officials have concluded that, although there was always a
persistent threat of an attack, there was no credible or
"imminent" threat that an attack would occur on September 11,
2001.
There are multiple instances of a failure to communicate.
Certain leads that possibly weren't investigated thoroughly and
there was a two-year long investigation into the attacks by the
"9/11 commission." Errors in human judgment in determination
of whether every lead is credible or not can play a factor but
those judgment errors alone could not prevented the overall
coordinated attack that occurred on 9/11. "The investigation
turned up no single damning piece of evidence that would have
led agents directly to the impending attacks" (Isikoff, Klaidman,
& Reno, 2003). There is simply not enough time or manpower
to investigate every threat made against the U.S. Government or
America itself. Federal agents, in their knowledge and
expertise, must use their own judgment to determine whether to
follow up on credible leads whether it be an attack on private
citizens or property, a plot to kill the President, bombing of a
federal building, or other such terroristic events. Again, while
it is easy to examine an issue in hindsight, it is the opinion of
this writer that this coordinated terrorist attack took too long to
plan and was so precise and detailed that there was no way to
prevent it.
