Where were you when 9/11 happened?

My best first question for my interview is "Where were you on 9/11?" This is my first question because it really starts with a question that can really make an impact on the person that we interview. The better the question and the better the impact, the better the interview. People dont want to listen to a boring interview. People want results, and having a question that has impact, creates results.

What about the United States’ foreign policy in general? For example how do they handle foreign threats and allies?

Do you know anyone deployed by the military to the middle east in the last 12 years?

This is one of my group's first questions. This is ment to engage them for our other questions so that we can get inside them.

Do you think that the U.S. 9/11 attacks were in common with the more recent attacks from the Assad attacks on his own people?

Do you think we should intervene in world affairs even though we have our own issues in our country?

My best first question is "Do you think that not intervening in world affairs will affect our countries?"

My best question for the interviews is, "What do you think would have happened if we did not intervene with the terrorists that attacked 911 before it happened?"

My first question would be "Where were you on 9/11?"

I believe that the best questtion would be to ask if you were in any war in the Middle East or if you knew anyone who was. This gets the person warmed up to the conversation.

"Where were you on 9/11?" will be my first question.

Pearl Harbor was like 9/11 we did not expect the attack. In general how should the US respond to these attacks?

Talking about Assad and the the person you are interviewing feels about what he did to the innocent people.

My best interview question would be: where were you on 9/11? And a following question: As the us was devastated that day, and another country was being devastated would you help them knowing how awful it was to loose so many people? These questions make the person your interviewing provide personal experience, and their true opinion.

Where were you when 9/11 happened? I feel like this question will make the person who I am interviewing answer in an extremely interesting, emotional, and important manner.

I would start with a very simple, and personal question like, "Where do you come from?" From the interviewers background, I may find the best point to cut in and ask the ideal question. Asking, "Where were you at 9/11" may conceivably make the interviewee tense up because this question is extremely serious, political and almost too painful to answer.

Do you think we should get involved in other countries issues even though we have our own to worry about?

Anonymous said...

Do you agree that 9-11 was one of the worst terrorist attacks of all time? This is because our interview is based around how 9-11 affected our foreign policy.

Do you think it was right for the US to go after the terrorists who caused 9/11. This is a major question for my group because we want to intervene based on foreign crisis.

Do you know anyone that was deployed in the military in the last 12 years? (pre 9-11)

Do you think the U.S. intervention abroad is effecting the political stability in the U.S. either positively or negatively?

Anonymous said...

It depends what your trying to get the person your interviewing to say. For my project were trying to get the person to talk about how they think the US should help other countries and that it is the expectation. So I believe that the best starting interview question is: Would you expect a much more powerful country to help you in a crisis; such as your village being destroyed? This way you can get them to talk about the expectation and how they appreciate it.
