Discussion Questions: With the exception of 9/11, relate what you believe are the “three” most important events or moments in the history of terrorism. To be clear, “first” list – via numbers (1, 2, & 3) your three events or moments in history “prior to” explaining/justifying. Importantly, “then” explain and “justify” your reasoning for “each” selection. As this is a critical component, those that do not explain/justify will “not” receive credit.
