Week 7 Critical Thinking Exercise – Comparison of International Terrorism Responses

Our assigned reading material this week highlights international terror attacks in locations such as Israel, Sri Lanka, Brazil, and in several other countries.

In this Critical Thinking Exercise, please reflect on the international terrorism incidents that we have learned about and compare them to terror attacks that involve United States targets. Then, please compare international terror responses and counterterrorism to what is taking place in the United States. Is the United States more or less prepared for a terror attack? Why?
