Terrorism
1. Introduction
A. The problem with this is that it permits terrorists to blend in with the masses unnoticed. It
is thought that those on the Terrorism Screening Database have been allowed to enter the
country with other migrants.
B. The primary concern that this raise is that the United States allows terrorists to live among
us in our society.
2. Key Factors
A. The absence of border protection allows these folks to enter our nation and take
advantage of it.
B. Terrorists frequently do not make their presence known until they attack, therefore it
is extremely likely that at least one terrorist snuck past the border among the million
individuals that crossed.
C. Performativity and intentionality are ways to examine what the goal of a text is
(Longhi, 2021, p. 2)
3. Recommendations for Policy
A. Because of the current issue, quick action is essential. To get the border problem under
control, a policy must be implemented as quickly as feasible.
B. The first aspect of this is that implementing stronger security measures as soon as possible
is crucial.
C. “What are the corpora about? Can we use semantic features to understand the specificities
of a document?” (Longhi, 2021, p. 1)
4. Risk
A. The main danger associated with putting the concept into practice would be diverting
funds from other foreign counterterrorism initiatives.
B. Political power is constantly shifting between the houses.
5. A biblical perspective
A. To uphold justice and act morally in God's eyes
B. The purpose of the criminal justice system is stated quite plainly in Proverbs 21:15 and
Psalms 82:4: “The exercise of justice is a joy for the righteous, But terror to those who
practice injustice.” and "Save the poor and defenseless; deliver them from the evildoer's
grasp."
6. Conclusion
A. Even if there are several approaches to investigating terrorism, there is always room
for improvement.
B. The more artificial intelligence and technology advance, the more online criminal
activities may be decreased.
C. Finally, microbiological forensics makes it possible to identify if a sickness, parasite,
etc. is a component of a larger, evil scheme more accurately and quickly.
