Improving Security

After the 9/11, American authorities are viewing how they can improve security to protect the country from this terrorist attacks. After the destroy of the World Trade Center, the United States spended a lot of money on improving the national security. They know that the major enemy are the Islamist groups of terrorism. Now, they set some goals to improve the security and some of them are to prevent the growth of terrorism and prepare people for future attacks. Americans know that another attack can occur at any moment, but for the next time, they want to be prepared in order to protect people.

"Total federal spending on defense (including expenditures on both Iraq and Afghanistan), homeland security, and international affairs rose more than 50 percent, from $354 billion to about $547 billion. The United States has not experienced such a rapid surge in national security spending since the Korean War."
In a lot of time, the U.S. didn´t spend that amount of money and all these can tell that this attack was massive.
"Islam is not the enemy. It is not synonymous with terror. Nor does Islam teach terror."
Islam is not bad and they don´t teach terror, but there are some extremist groups that attack places and those people are the enemies.

America took the Islamist attacks seriously and really wanted to improve the security of the country. They are clear on who the enemy is and invested big amounts of money because the are concerned about the protection of the citizens. They also know that more attacks may occur and they are doing all what they can in order to try to prevent them or prepare people from them. They know the whole situation and it will be easier to be prepared on the future.
