On Monday April 30th, five men were arrested after being accused of aiming to bomb an Ohio bridge. This raises disturbing questions about the attraction to violence of some contemporary anarchists.Since 9/11 the country has been concerned primarily with terrorist threats from militants inspired by a violent jihadist ideology, like that associated with al Qaeda. In recent years fears have focused on Muslim "homegrown" terrorism, which typically involves plots in the United States initiated by American residents and citizens who are inspired by jihadi ideology, but lack formal connections to al Qaeda or foreign militant organizations. People say Muslum home grown terrorist may draw the attention of a nation still traumitized by 9/11, but such plots are no more numerous or serious than those perpetrated by the other domestic terrorist in the United States.
We think this is important because now we know there are still people out there like Osama Bin Laden. This is also important to know that even though 9/11 is over that we should still be on "high alert" when things like this happens. This event is shows how our security has changed over the years since 9/11. Also this shows that dont have to be as worried because we have better security than when we did during 9/11.
The names of the five people accused of the bomb threats Brandon Baxter, Anthony Hayne, Conner Stevens, Joshua Stafford, and Douglas Wright.
