FIVE YEARS AFTER SEPT. 11, WE'RE STILL SIFTING THROUGH THE FALLOUT AND STRUGGLING TO DEFINE WHAT THE TRAGEDY MEANS TO US
2006
Overview
The attacks are used as justification for or against war in the Middle East, as a rallying cry for or against religious faith and as reason to ease privacy protections, prompting others to fight back at the perceived erosion of civil liberties. Hollywood has entered the fray, releasing major motion pictures this year presenting 9/11 as stories of American heroism. Michael Barkun, a political science professor at Syracuse University, said the attacks are redrawing the traditional boundaries separating church and state. He cited as an example federal guidelines enacted in 2002 allowing FBI agents to openly attend religious services, ostensibly to monitor sermons. Two recent movies, Michael Moore's \"Fahrenheit 9/11,\" and Oliver Stone's \"World Trade Center,\" present vastly different views of 9/ 11 and reflect the divide. The former took aim at the [Bush] administration and was embraced by the left; the latter presented the attacks as a tale of American heroism and was championed by the right.
