911 Memorial
September 11,
2001 the twin towers fell. Almost over 3,000 people died in the accident, people
would jump out of the window during the burning and the destructions. Four
passenger airliners
were hijacked by 19 al-Qaeda terrorists so they
could be flown into buildings in suicide
attacks. Two of those planes, American Airlines Flight 11 and United Airlines Flight 175, were crashed
into the North and South towers, respectively, of the World Trade Center complex in New York City.
Within two hours, both towers collapsed with
debris and the resulting fires causing or collapsed completely. Bin Laden, who orchestrated the
attacks, initially denied but later admitted involvement. Al Jazeera
broadcast a statement by bin Laden on September 16, 2001, stating, "I
stress that I have not carried out this act, which appears to have been carried
out by individuals with their own motivation." In November 2001, U.S.
forces recovered a videotape from a destroyed house in Jalalabad, Afghanistan.
My reaction
when this happened I was shocked because a lot of people died and the people
that were watching the tragedy were crying because maybe they had a family member
in there or a friend. I wanted to cry because it was so sad watching all these people
dying .
