There are several notable reasons. These include:

  • Exposing a lack of security in protecting US borders
  • Establishing Al-Qaeda and Osama bin Laden as notable terrorists
  • Triggered the ward in Afghanistan and (arguably) Iraq
  • Shifted the focus of the United States military from conventional wars to counterinsurgency operations
  • Led to stricter airport security and the reinforcment of airline cockpit doors

Other effects of 9/11 are not listed here; they may be added.
