Domestic
Oklahoma City Bombing (April 19
th
,
1995)
Timothy McVeigh was caught shortly
after the attack, as the U.S.
government responded quickly
(
Oklahoma City Bombing
, 2022). The
investigation led to the arrest and
conviction of several involved
(
Oklahoma City Bombing
, 2022).
The attack highlighted the need for
enhanced intelligence sharing and
coordination between levels of law
enforcement agencies (
Oklahoma City
Bombing
, 2022).
International
U.S. Embassy Bombings in Kenya and
Tanzania
(August 7
th
, 1998)
The U.S. response was to launch
Operation Infinite Reach (
East African
Embassy Bombings
, 2022). In order to
disrupt al-Qaeda’s infrastructure, a
series of cruise missile strikes against
al-Qaeda training camps in
Afghanistan and a medicine factory in
Sudan were launched (
East African
Embassy Bombings
, 2022). Over 900
FBI agents were sent overseas to help
with recovery efforts (
East African
Embassy Bombings
, 2022). Those
responsible were arrested in Kenya
within 3 weeks and given to the U.S.
They were convicted and sent to life in
prison (
East African Embassy
Bombings
, 2022).
The attacks showed the need for a
well-thought strategy to address
terrorist threats and the fact that
military actions are necessary
sometimes, not just intelligence and
law enforcement gathering (
East
African Embassy Bombings
, 2022).
This attack also led to an expanded
FBI overseas presence (
East African
Embassy Bombings
, 2022).
