With the United States increasingly the target of terrorists
overseas, the inevitable protective steps were taken at home.
This Thanksgiving Week photo shows the interim method of
barricading: heavy trucks and equipment blocking off streets
at the White House, State Department, Capitol Building and
the Pentagon. Soon 3 foot high cement barriers were erected
around the White House. The U.S. anti-terrorist planners take
sensible precautions without turning Government buildings
into fortresses; for, as they fully realize, no such defensive
measures will stop a determined terrorist bent on self-
destruction. December 1983
