..., however recent events have indicated the need for a proactive mechanism for anticipating terrorist atrocities.

This is not a quite a neutral point of view and will also "date quickly". --- Jagged

I don't think this contravenes NPOV; I am not American and I can see why you probably need such a system. The dates quickly is not a big deal either in Wikipedia where the information can be modified as events unfold but I'll fix it in a temporal context relative to recent events. I am going to reinstate it since it qualifies the marker about civil liberties. sjc

Yes, that seems flow better and gives more facts behind the statement rather than having it just read like an opinion.

Not only does the references look better than the word recent, but in my opinion we should not be relying on being able to edit the entries in the future. What would happen if someone were to take a snapshot of Wikipedia and archive it for future use? Someone reading the first revision of this entry in 50 years time would be confused by that last sentance, however the current revision would give them the reference they would need to understand this entry. --- Jagged

This kind of goes with the territory, I'm afraid. My parents have an old encyclopaedia in which aluminium is described as a metal of the future.... sjc
