9/11 Conspiracy Theory

Everyone probably has different opinions about the deadly attacks that occurred on September 11, 2001 (9/11 attacks). Some may believe conspiracy theories like the United States Government has full responsibility of this date. However, no matter what conspiracy theory someone may believe everyone should believe that this terrible day has done some good things. This horrifically brutal attack against innocent citizens created a safer, more secure, thorough search of people's belongings before boarding an aircraft. All of the new precautions that are now taken are make airports much safer than ever before. If these safety measures had been put in place in the year of 2001, the attacks on September 11th would have not taken place.

“7:59 am – American Airlines Flight 11, a Boeing 767 with 92 people aboard, takes off from Boston’s Logan International Airport en route to Los Angeles. 8:14 am – United Airlines Flight 175, a Boeing 767 with 65 people aboard, takes off from Boston; it is also headed to Los Angeles. 8:19 am – Flight attendants aboard Flight 11 alert ground personnel that the plane has been hijacked; American Airlines notifies the FBI. 8:20 am – American Airlines Flight 77 takes off from Dulles International Airport outside of Washington, D.C. The Boeing 757 is headed to Los Angeles with 64 people aboard” (9/11: Timeline of Events). Imagine being one of the passengers on the airplane, not knowing what was going on and about to happen. No one knew that this was going to be a very significant moment in America's history (9/11 Attacks). This group of terrorists were about to change the future of airline security. To highlight this point, “The death toll for the day, excluding the perpetrators, was estimated at 2,973. It included 2,749 at the World Trade Center, 184 at the Pentagon, and 40 in a related occurrence in Pennsylvania” (September 11, 2001 Events). So many innocent people died this terrible day and this could have been prevented with tighter security at airports. This could have not happened if everyone was searched before boarding an aircraft and the
Airport safety has changed forever and is never going back to what it used to be. Here is an example of how safety has even increased outside of the airport and not only on an aircraft, “These portable sensors could be used outside of the airport itself to identify dangerous individuals or vehicles before they get close enough to do damage” (Koprowski). This is stated by Peter Kant, executive vice president of Rapiscan Systems (Ten Years of Tech made Airports safer). In other words, as years go on more discoveries are made. The sensors that are sometimes used outside of airports could be very helpful in the way that people could be caught before any bad could be done. If it was not for September 11th who knows if airport security would be as secure as it is nowadays. To help support this claim, “Airports are using new technologies, like refined X-ray backscatter equipment, which enables intimate searching of a passenger without the need for them to strip or be stripped by federal agents (Koprowski). Although some people might be frustrated with the fact that with all these new protocols over the past years it takes a very long time to go through security and how people have to arrive around two hours before their flight takes off. To help explain this according to TSA, “TSA screens approximately 1.1 million checked bags for explosives and other
