Answer:

President Bush authorized Operation Enduring Freedom and invaded Afghanistan in response to the terrorist attack on September 11, 2001.

Explanation:

"Operation Enduring Freedom" is the official name used by the United States Government for the Afghanistan War, along with a number of smaller military actions, in the context of the "War on Terror."

In response to the September 11 attacks, the first combat operations that took place on October 7, 2001 included a mixture of attacks using B-1 Lancer, B-2 Spirit and B-52 Stratofortress ground-based bombers, military aircraft, and Tomahawk cruise missiles launched from both US and British submarines and warships.

The initial military objectives of the OEF, as presented by President George W. Bush in his September 20 speech to a joint session of Congress and his speech on October 7 to the country, included the destruction of terrorist training camps and infrastructure located in Afghanistan, the capture of al Qaeda leaders and the cessation of terrorist activities in Afghanistan.

Why are federal judges appointed for life?
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

a) To ensure freedom from control by elected officials

Explanation:

Constitutionally (Article III), federal judges are appointed for life. The Constitution gives federal judges employment security so they may resolve cases without public or political pressure. Even if they make unfavorable judgments, federal judges can only be impeached.

They are sheltered from the political process yet being young and inexperienced encourages judges to remain on the bench long after good reason would have retired them. According to Eastman and UT professor Stephen Vladeck, term restrictions might diminish independence and let money influence the system. If judges were obliged to retire at 60, some industry or interest may have employed them later.
