1. The Rebirth of Ground Zero- USA
2. This video shares the viewpoint of a retired firefighter, who lost his son on September 11, 2001. It tells the story of how he has been able to cope after ten years since the terrorist attacks on the Twin Towers. The video focuses on the man’s opinions of rebuilding, on honoring, and always remembering.
3. The text book talks about how The United States are a power house in terms of power based on political, economic, and military status. This power is often met with resistance, much like the terrorist attack on September 11, 2001. “Some domestic and foreign special interest groups disagree with U.S. government policy or intervention in events occurring outside borders.”
4. I really enjoyed this video. I believed the man had a very intriguing and motivational outlook on this tragedy that robbed him of his son. I feel that the way he has managed his grievances is something everyone should be admirable of. His message hit home quite a bit for me, as I lost someone very dear to me in a tragic way 11 months ago. It would be very easy to want revenge and to seek out harm to the people involved; but like he said, that will not bring him son back. I think that’s important to remember, our country may have found justice in killing Osama Bin Laden; but thousands of families will never get the satisfaction of having their loved ones return. When that’s the case, the most healing thing you can do is find solace in remembering your lost ones in a light they would appreciate being shown in. I am positive that this man’s son would be so proud of his dad.
5. This video didn’t really portray an issue, but more of the aftermath of one of the biggest issues Americans have faced to date. I think more people need to have the outlook on grieve like this man does. It could benefit them by providing peace and lowering the chances of retaliation. When a country goes through such a tragedy, it’s essential for the wellbeing of the nation to
