Terrorism: The Toughest Issue Facing the US

In this era of change and confusion, terrorism is the most challenging aspect of security issues the United States faces. This is not only due to the nature of the terror itself but also due to the intentional narrow focus of the US government and how to cope with this threat. Three main aspects support this argument. First of all, terrorism is the threat of an ancient metamorphosis that human beings could not deal with. This usually leads to emotional overreaction. In addition, boosted by the 9/11 case, the US government paid too much attention to Al Qaeda despite the fact that more terrorist organizations threaten the United States.

However, it is hard to say that the threat of terrorism will affect the whole world. The security problem faced by Malaysia may be different from the security problem faced even in the US and Africa. In short, because there are other, more important issues, terrorism is becoming a more important security issue in some countries than the whole world.

Humanity now faces many global problems, but the problem of terrorism has evolved into one of the serious problems that are receiving world attention. According to statistics, terrorism is slowly expanding around us. For example, the recent infamous case was a 911 incident in the United States, which affected not only their economy but also the lives of civilians there, causing great damage. Therefore, it also participated and destroyed the world economy which brought panic to the world.
