Once these disparate parts were held together by a
common enemy, by the fault lines of world wars and
the electrified fence of communism. With the end of
the cold war there was the creeping concern that
without a focus for hatred and distrust, a sense of
national identity would evaporate, that the left side of
the hyphen-African-American, Mexican-American,
Irish-American-would overwhelm the right. And slow-
growing domestic traumas like economic unrest and
increasing crime seemed more likely to emphasize
division than community. Today the citizens of the
United States have come together once more because
of armed conflict and enemy attack.
