Saturday marks 20-year anniversary of 9/11 and America faces revived concerns of terrorism now that the Taliban has retaken control of Afghanistan. Ushering in a new government, the Taliban has also seized billions of dollars in American military equipment left behind by the Biden administration, including helicopters, armored vehicles, weapons and ammunition.
After President Biden left Americans stranded, reports have surfaced that the Taliban has taken many of them hostage.
Campus Reform's Addison Smith went to Georgetown University to ask students if these events make them worried about another terrorist attack on American soil due to the rise of the Taliban.
Many students did tell Smith that they are now more concerned about another terrorist attack on America.
"I am [worried], I actually am. That's what happened last time they let Osama Bin Laden be out there", one student said.
"Absolutely. I mean, mostly because of the equipment we have left there... security has come a long way," another expressed. "But at the same time, I don't think it's enough."
One student suggested that, "[The Afghanistan crisis] poses one of the greatest threats that the United States have faced since 9/11."

The Supreme Court is expected to release its decision on a case concerning campus free speech this month.
The case, Mahanoy Area School District v. B.L., involves a high school student who criticized her school on social media after she didn’t make the junior varsity cheer team.
After the student's social media posts were reported to the school administration, she was suspended from being on the cheer team for a year. The student then sued the school for alleged violations of the First Amendment and the case has now made its way to the Supreme Court.
As Americans continue to wait for a decision to be released, Campus Reform reporter Ophelie Jacobson talked to students in front of the Supreme Court to get their opinions on the case.

,1,Florida Campus Correspondent Ophelie Jacobson asked students about the recent movement to remove "racist" statues, figures, and institutions from society. After agreeing with the movement, Jacobson then presented students with this quote from Planned Parenthood Founder Margaret Sanger: "We do not want word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population."
Most students agreed the quote was racist, but walked back their previous remarks when they found out the quote was Sanger's. Many still said they support Planned Parenthood.
