9/11 Commission Report Paper #1

Due in class Friday, 2/24/16

This assignment is worth 5% of the final term grade. Ability to follow the written instructions

will be part of this grade.

? Read pages 1-52 of The 9/11 Commission Report with Related Documents. Abridged with

an Introduction by Ernest R. May.

? Your paper must be typed, double-spaced, and respond to all of the following

questions.

? Your paper must begin with a full and correctly cited bibliographic reference to the text.

You should use the ìModern Language Associationî or MLA format (go online or

contact me if you have questions about how to do this).

? When responding to the following questions, you must support your answers with direct

reference to evidence provided in the assigned text. Rather than include extensive

quotes or complex footnotes, all I ask is that you include a simple page number reference

at the end of the sentence or paragraph. Do not feel like you have to cite every sentence.

Rather, as historians, you should support your key claims and conclusions on direct

evidence. For example:

ìErnest May believes that the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, came as a

complete and disturbing surprise to most Americans. (p.vii)î

=========================================================

Answer all of the following questions in your paper. There is no need to write a formal essay that

links all of the questions, but each answer should be complete, logically argued, and supported

by evidence.

1. Ernest May argues that political partisanship threatened to destroy the commission even

before it began. What was the source of this partisanship?

2. When was the investigation finally commissioned? What problems were presented to the

commission by the White House? What were the reasons, according to May, that the

commission was able to successfully complete the report?

3. May describes three shortcomings of the report. What are these? Which shortcoming, in

your view, was the most problematic and (more importantly) why do you think so?

4. Based on your reading of the section titled “We have some planes,” describe why the

nineteen terrorists were so successful in their attack. Where did they fail? What, in your

view, were the critical problems in ìimprovising homeland defenseî on that tragic day

(again, justify your answer with evidence from the text)?
