That tragedy spurred a war that no American president had ever fought before, a war on terrorism. President Bush amazed the American people when he responded so quickly to the threat to our freedom. In doing this, he earned one of the highest approval ratings that any president received in years. After the attacks, President Bush immediately called for an emergency meeting of Congress. He was the first president in sixty years to take such an action. On September 15, the President held the first, and most important, of several weekend strategy sessions at Camp David.

Because of this, Bush insisted that his first prime time address call for a global anti terror coalition, and it was the president who fine-tuned the warning to nations that “harbor” terrorists.
