The attack on the Twin Towers in New York City on September 11th, 2001 is one of the most, if not the most well-known terrorist attack to happen on United States soil. The September 11 attacks were a series of four coordinated terrorist attacks by the Islamic terrorist group al-Qaeda on the United States on the morning of Tuesday, September 11, 2001. The attacks killed

11 September 2001 On September 11’th 2001 on the morning hijacked by 19 Arab men 4 aircraft were all heading towards California, and used them as suicide missiles. They flew into the World Trade Center two twin towers, the Pentagon and after a long struggle with passengers crashed last down on a field. World Trade Center consisted of seven buildings, three of the buildings collapsed and the four others were damaged by the other collapsed. It is believed that the 19 Arab men, was led by the Egyptian Mohammed Atta (1968-2001) 5.

Roughly 2,753 people were killed on September 11, 2001, by terrorists who overtook commercial airplanes (Jones). The cause of these thousands of deaths were a series of attacks in New York City by an Islamic terrorist group, Al-Qaeda. However, there are still many questions about what actually happened the morning of September 11, 2001. As there are many different conspiracy theories about what happened that day, 9/11 was an attack which began with Al- Qaeda hi-jacking airplanes, but ended with more questions than answers. Many questions still remain about the authenticity of cell phone calls from inside the planes, why air defense was told to “stand down,” and how three buildings imploded as the result of two buildings being struck by airplanes.

A group of hijackers took control over four commercial jets flying out of the airport of the US. Two aircraft directed towards the direction of the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center (WTC) in New York. All evidence that was found led to a radical Sunni Islamist group al-Qaeda being the culprit of 9/11. The attack represented a symbol; US’s power and influence collapsing like the Twin Towers, both having 110 floors collapsing causing extensive damaged to the area which surrounds them. Various other buildings were also destroyed in the wreckage of these towers. The total count of lives lost during 9/11 was close to approximately 3000 inclusive of the 19 who hijacked the plane. It was a record of lives loss based on the terrorist incident on US soil. The destruction of these two towers transformed the perspectives of the US forever, significant effect on world economic markets and confidence in the US immediately decreased. George W. Bush noted the horrific events of the attack as “evil, despicable acts of terror” (BBC 2001), causing fear amongst the people of the world leading to the change, in the face of terrorism

Cole Barrett Coach Brodie 5/1/17 U.S History – F Period 9/11 Attacks On September 11th, 2001, the worst terror attack on US soil took place. 19 people associated with the Islamic extremist group al-Qaeda took 4 airplanes and carried out suicide to kill people in the United States.

September 11, 2001 (herein referred to as 9/11) was a day in American history, which will be remembered as the most horrific attack on American soil. This attack, carried out by nineteen Islamic extremists, was associated with al-Qaeda, and involved the hijacking of four airplanes. Two of those airplanes were hijacked and flown directly into the World Trade Center in New York City, New York. The third plane’s target was the Pentagon in Washington D.C., and the fourth plane was brought down in Pennsylvania where it is believed the passengers aboard fought the hijackers. This horrific day in history cost over 3,000 people their lives, and was labeled the worst attack on American soil since the attack on Pearl Harbor during World War II.

They later found out that flight 93 was supposed to hit the white house, but luckily it didn't. 9/11 is also the number to call the police if you need them or someone is injured. All parts of the twin towers collapsed. George W. Bush once said “Terrorist attacks can shake the foundations of our biggest buildings, but they cannot touch the foundation of America. These acts shatter steel, but they cannot dent the steel of American resolve.” All of the terrorist that attacked were believed to be from the Middle East. After the attacks of 9/11 the government did everything they could to keep the united states safe. This day is still remembered to this day and probably always will be remembered. The twin towers were the tallest building in New York's City and, at one point they were the tallest buildings in the world. Each tower was 250,000 tons, had 99 elevators, and had 21,800 windows. The twin towers had its own zip code. This zip code was 10048. The twin towers were built in 1973 and the rest of the buildings had been built within the next 15 years. The twin towers attracted about 70,000 tourist and commuters every day. This was a sad day in history for a lot of people. Some say that Bush did 9/11 but, if he did why was he doing stuff to

The Tragedy of 9/11 An important event that is known to be so far the most tragic attack in American history, it left Americans with a constant fear of another terrorist attack, this tragic event is known as 9/11. This tragedy occurred when an Islamic group known as al-Qaeda attacked the World Trade Center in New York City.

The causes of the 9/11 terrorist attacks are rooted deeper than most Americans realize. The trail of historical events that led to this catastrophe are widely unknown.

9/11: The Truth Behind Terrorism Many people thought that September 11, 2001 was just another day, another simple day in New York. Nothing out of the ordinary was happening, until the first plane crashed into the World Trade Center. American Airlines Flight 11 and United Airlines Flight 175 were hijacked and driven into the North and South towers of the World Trade Center in Manhattan. At the site, 2,753 people were killed when the planes crashed into the buildings and 2,977 people were killed in New York City, Washington, DC, and the outskirts of Shanksville, Pennsylvania due to terrorism. This destructive and devastating attack was at the hands of Osama Bin Laden and Al Qaeda. Terrorism was the cause of the devastating events that occurred on September 11, 2001. Through the Social Contract Theory, the Guantanamo Bay Prison, higher security in airports and the Patriot Act, have been used to cease the threat on America.
