Does The New Airport Security Help Eliminate The Chances Of Terrorism In Airports? Skyler Coryell St. Ambrose University Introduction My topic is the question of, does the new security that airports have in them help eliminate the chances of terrorism in the airports and airplanes? I believe this topic is important to look at and study because ever since 9/11 the United States as a nation have been very cautious about this topic and have done a lot to stop this. The United States Government has put a lot of time and effort into trying to stop acts of terrorism like the one of 9/11. By looking into this I am actually seeing if what they did is actually helping or if it stopped the big attacks and there are still some small attacks. Annotations Aviation Security : After Four Decades, It's Time for a Fundamental Review This is a fundamental review about airport security and what they are doing to help protect the people within the airport and on the planes. This source is written by Brian Michael Jenkins. This is a source that goes over the fundamentals of what the airport security is and how it operates. It doesn't go into too much detail involving what they do but it gives some facts and a brief overview of how they have put in more security and what this security and checkings do to prevent horrific terror attacks from happening. He believes that even though there is reason to look into every single way there is to counter a terrorist attack and how they can prevent them, that there are people that should help the ones that don't understand fully what is happening by giving them a overview of what they mean. He obviously doesn't like when these attacks happen and he too thinks that we need to do everything in our power to stop them. I believe this source is credible due to the facts that he brings in and cites and the information that he gives out I have researched and they all are true. I think there is a little bias, but I feel like this comes with being an american. Every american doesn't want these things to happen and we are very bias when it comes to this topic due to the event that happened on September eleventh. This source fits into my topic because I am trying to figure out how and if the additional security that airports have put in are preventing these attacks to happen less or happen at all in this case. I believe they have helped because I haven't heard of many, but I want to find out through stats and facts. It brings in the overview of what I have to look for when I search for what I am searching for. It tells me some of the new security that they have put in but it also gives me some facts about this specific airline, Aviation. It is not an opposing view but it is in some sort background information. AVIATION SECURITY CONSIDERATIONS EXPEDITED PASSENGER SCREENING AND MODIFICATION OF PROHIBITED ITEMS LIST This is an eBook that is written by Irene Simmons on some ways that we can do passenger screening more carefully and precisely. Also in this she talks about some of the ways not only can we do screenings but how we can check people bagging without going through everyone's belongings. She also gives ideas on some of the things that she thinks should be prohibited on a plane and in an airport. She is very for having more security and giving people more protection but she also wants to do it in the right way where it doesn't invade privacy. She thinks that attacks are horrific and need to be stopped and stopped in a way that no one ever gets hurt. I believe the source is credible due to all the facts and stats that she cites, but also by me doing my own research and finding out what she is saying isn't a bunch of made up stuff. I believe that there really isn't very much bias in this she looks at both sides
