Argumentative Essay On 9/11

Your right, no one could have ever fathomed the magnitude of what happened on 9/11. From the responders to the civilians nothing went as it was "suppose" to. I believe the down and dirty fact remains, according to the official reports we are still making overall mistakes we made before Pearl Harbor. We still seeing the same deficiencies time after time after each major disaster we have had. Our readings stated that NORAD and the FAA never even propose the possibility or had protocol that there would be a suicide hijacking that would turn the aircraft into a missile. They also assumed that the aircraft would not disappear from radar and they would have plenty of time to intercept (Kaimen, 2012). Not to mention all the Intel that was being

kept from the wrong people.
From the top point on, it was a disaster quickly in the making. There was multiple fails from the government at a federal level that might have mitigated this incident from happening to the extent that it actually did. Although this incident was a nightmare, it is an educational paradise. There is so much we should learn about this incident especially when we are making the same mistakes at all levels that we did 60 years ago. Managers and planners have to be more meticulous to provide detail to situations and problems that may arise especially in the Homeland Security arena. We need to ensure we are not making the same mistakes in the future. All agencies need to address the possibility of the deficiencies we read about this week and have the ability to coordinate efforts to correct them.
