Summary/Abstract: The article represents an estimate of the main terrorist deeds the United States confronted with prior to September 11, 2002, as well as the way the responsible American authorities reacted to those events. Leaving aside the psychological involvement and President Bush mighty rhetoric concerning the radical changes of the approach of the new threats against the American security, there is a continuity related both to terrorism development and to some principles connected to the terrorism approach that were reinforced in the US beginning with the ‘ 70, once carried out by the President Nixon’s “no concessions” policy.
