The Immigrant as Threat to American Security






                As American history; immigration has played a major role in the most parts of American culture and society. It's a melting pot countries that people fleeing from somewhere else to seek a freedom here. The American people who migrated from England, for example, were settled on land and started to create cultures. According to the book " But Americans, at variety of moments, have also fear of immigrants ... ", in my perspective is that the Whites people who settled in American land said that they fear of otherness, especially drastically increasing when the time of 9/11 terrorist attack, but they, themselves also migrated from somewhere else as well, unlike the native Americans or Red-Indians who were there before the invasion from Europe.

                After the 9/11 attack, the Americans have been more cautious with immigration flowing in the country, especially the Arabian or Muslims, which Americans point of view would already judge the Arabian in coming as a threat to the country and now the US and the world would be more alert than before to protect their national security.
