=__Overview__ =

Following September 11 Attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, President George W. Bush Jr. declared that the United States was at war with terrorism. President Bush starts operation Iraqi freedom to get rid of Saddam Hussein in March 2003. Bush soon ended major combat a few weeks later (iwar.org). Early into the war, officials in Congress and the Administration stated te expected cost in Afghanistan was over $1 billion a month, and it was expected to rise rapidly.On October 7, 2001 the U.S. and Britain started a bombing campaign on terrorist camps and military installations. Since this declaration, we have increased security in airports, waged war in foreign lands, and hunted terrorist groups and group leaders. The recent death of the worlds most wanted man, and terrorist leader: Osama Bin Laden, has led to what is thought to be the beginning of the end of war on terror.

<span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 18px; line-height: 27px;">What i learned from this wiki is what war on terror is. War on Terror is what America declared agaisnt terrorist after the 9/11 attack. Many ther countries have also decared war on terror because of terrorist attacks. But im not exactly sure how it works and how the polices are put together and what you can do when you declare war on terror. But i think that war on terror is a good tactic when it come to fighing terrorism. Because tearing down the terrorist will make the world a better place.
