The twin legacies of 9/11

The twin legacies of 9/11

The two enduring legacies of the twin tower attacks a decade ago are the United States' struggle to accumulate more power to manage its decline and the birth pangs of a new generation of political Islamists in the Arab world. Whether they collide will depend in part on whether Islamists can stabilize by becoming deeply entrenched in Middle Eastern governments and on the US modifying its support for Israel. - Mahan Abedin (Sep 12, '11)
