The events of September 11, 2001, mark a footnote in history that will always go down as the inception of the complete disintegration of the concept of sovereignty, the adherence to the Geneva Convention, and the decline of the American leadership status in the world. Although, it is rightfully marked as a day of mourning in the United States - having been the cause of many innocent lives lost. It also started a chain reaction of multiple 9/11's, only this time the effects reverberated throughout the rest of the world as we know it. None faced them more than Iraq, Afghanistan, and Pakistan.
nternational politics is anarchic in nature. As such there is no supreme authority present to ensure moral recompense for any offenses committed. Thus every state must help themselves to power in order to survive.
