Even after another 20 years, terrorism will still be here. Every organization and country tries its best to control others. As long as human beings are here, terrorism will be there. —Xu, Stock Broker, Suzhou, Jiangsu Province
I do not think so. On the other hand, it is getting worse. In this society, people have more pressures and have become more selfish. —Wang, Program Manager, Beijing
Not at all. Let me quote Benjamin Franklin (one of the founding fathers of the United States): "Any society that gives up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety deserves neither liberty nor safety." —Andreas, Landscape Designer, Germany
I think we are safer from the obvious. Something could happen again; however, I do feel that we are now better prepared to sort out the people involved and not afraid to take the necessary action to protect our country and its people. —Bonnie, Communications Manager, Tennessee, USA
