The October 1, 2001, issue of TIME, titled "Target: Bin Laden," serves as a pivot point from national mourning to the mobilization for the War on Terror. The issue provides a comprehensive breakdown of the 19 hijackers' lives in America, details the complex financial and ideological architecture of al-Qaeda, and explores the geopolitical pressure on Pakistan and Afghanistan as the U.S. prepared for military intervention. Beyond the manhunt, the magazine examines the birth of the Department of Homeland Security, the tension between national safety and civil liberties, and the cultural shift as Hollywood and the American economy grappled with a new, fearful reality. It ultimately sought to define the face of a new enemy while simultaneously attempting to explain the "roots of rage" fueling anti-American sentiment in the Middle East.
