There are some key reasons why protective services changed after 9/11.
This in turn caused US citizens to lose confidence in President Bush and this allowed the terror groups to feel and be more powerful and aggressive. In his case I think this is exactly what happened and many mistakes were made on his and his administrations part that would eventually show that even after 9/11 the US was still very vulnerable and would be unable to respond to any major event, to include another terror attack on US soil. Now I don?t neccesarily have an issue with that mind set as long as it doesn?t interfere with the other duties of a US President.
After the attacks the President Bush became very narrow focused and his whole reality became one of get the bad guy no matter what. This paper has to do with the vulnerability of the United States (US) and how the US was way more vulnerable, I think, than most people thought. Upon the second reading of the paper I began to do a more detailed analysis of what the paper was saying and this is where I figured out the suddle details that where in the paper. One of the other required readings, ?The World of 9/11: Four Years Later?, was somewhat difficult for me to read at first because I simply could not understand, at the first reading, what it had to do with either book chapter required or for this question. One last observation from the book that I really took to heart is that 9/11 was conducted by a small group of very focused individuals, not a large military force, and that a small band of individuals can produce a tremendous amount of damage and this damage can come from any direction. No one nation state would be the battle field but the whole world now becomes the battle field because of shared religious/ideological beliefs not because of a set of borders. This meant that the battle fields we fight on where going to be different. The book also mentions how terror groups also started an evalutionary process of their own, going from a state sponsored system to a more religious/ideological system. It is this statement that I just made where we can now start to think about the detailed analysis, victory over the groups enemy and the victory has nothing to do with the government. The CEO or the facility itself if distroyed would still be a victory for the group even if it wasn?t a government individual or facility. Maybe CEO?s or perhaps the actually facility of a company. These softer targets would be in the form of high profile individuals. As an example the book mentions that after 9/11 hard targets were became more secure and therefore these targets were now less attractive to terror groups and these groups would more than likely turn their attention to softer, all be it still valuable, targets. The required book for this course,?Executive Protectioin: New Solutions for a New Era?, does a good job of talking about the changes to protective services after 9/11 but leaves some the the analysis detail out that gets down to the root of the issue. However the question here is to analysis the ?why? of the changes and more specificallly for this class, the ?why? for protective services. One can say that everything in the world changed after 9/11 and of course they would be correct. At first clanse this question seems very easy to answer and probably is if one only looks at the question at face value.
