The attacks were conducted on a Tuesday morning, September 11th, 2001. Flight 11 was crashed into floors 93-99 of the World Trade Center’s North Tower. United Airlines Flight 175 was hijacked and crashed into floors 77-85 of the South tower of the World Trade Center. 343 firefighters (FDNY) personnel were killed battling the blazes caused by the massive explosions of jet fuel. Later that morning, Flight 77 was crashed into the west section of the Pentagon, a major military operations center in Washington, DC.

As the first Democrat in nearly 20 years to hold the position, Bill Clinton saw a successful, yet embattled tenure in the office of the presidency. As he looked to pass the torch to his Vice President Albert Gore Jr, a virtually unchallenged bid in the Democratic primary, as he carried all of the delegates, with the stance and platform of being a more moderate alternative to the liberal Senator Bill Bradley of New Jersey. The Republican Party was locked in a more challenged series of primaries with the two frontrunners being Senator John McCain of Arizona, and Governor George W. Bush of Texas. The major third party candidates were consumer advocate of the Green Party Ralph Nader, and his running mate Winona LaDuke, as

The first building to get hit was the north Twin Tower. Soon after, at 9:06 in the morning, the south tower was hit. Before the second plane, people thought the plane crash was a mistake, but by the second plane they knew it was not a mistake. The third plane hit the Pentagon at 10:06 in the morning. The final plane, Flight 93, looked like it was headed to a nearby elementary school, but it crashed two miles away from the school.

September 11, 2001 was a very horrible day. The twin towers was hit by 2 planes. The 2 planes hit the sides , middle of the buildings. When the planes hit , their was people inside working. The planes hit like mid way through the building. The people was struck at the top of the building but the people who was below escaped. Some people was hurt or killed because of the planes and the buildings. Some thoughts of 9/11 still plays through people heads from time to time.

Everyone thought it was just another day, but for many it ended up being the last day they saw their loved ones, this is the day were about 3,000 people were killed, including 343 firefighters and paramedics, 23 police officers, and 37 Port Authority police officers. The first American Airline Flight 11 hit the north tower of the World Trade Center at approximately 8:45 a.m., it left a burning hole on the

September 11, 2001 the U.S. was attacked by four crashing planes caused by terrorist. Two of the planes crashed into The World Trade Center at New York City and killed everyone on the plane, 3,000 deaths when the tower collapsed. One to the Pentagon a administrative building at Washington D.C. The last plane crashed into a field at Pennsylvania while passengers and crew members tried to take back control. After that George W. Bush responded to 9/11 and declared “War On Terror”. But I thought the U.S. response to 9/11 was not really appropriate by the way.

To start off, it was a tragic day in New York on September 11th. According to the September 11 attacks, “The September 11 attacks were a series of four coordinated terrorist attacks by the Islamic terrorist group on the United States on the morning of Tuesday September 11th, 2001.” It was a clear Tuesday morning at 8:45a.m. when the first plane crashed. The second plane crashed

September 11, 2001, America experienced a very tragic event in New York City. Two planes hit the the north and south towers on full impact and they both tumbled down.

Bush decided to begin his own journey to become our 43rd President of the United States. Bush opposed Al Gore, Jr. for the presidency in 2000. This presidential race was a historical victory for Bush because there were many debates as to whether or not he had won the presidential election. Several news reporters announced that Bush had been defeated and Al Gore, Jr. had become our president. Gore won the popular vote by 543,895 votes. These reports by the next morning had been found to be incorrect. Many people awakened to find out that it was still unclear who our president was going to be. The decision on who had won or lost the presidency was dependent on Florida’s electoral votes. This election would require the assistance of the Supreme Court. After the votes were counted and recounted, Bush was determined to be the winner of the electoral count 271 to 266. Bush was finally declared the 43rd president of the United States.

During September 11th, 2001 four airplanes were hijacked, two were headed towards the twin towers, one to the Pentagon, and the

This attack in September 2001 involved the multiple Al Qaeda groups hijacking four aircraft and then using them as weapons by causing collisions with prominent and heavily populated buildings in New York City, New York, and Arlington, Virginia. These building were Tower 1 and Tower 2 of the World Trade Center complex, and then the Pentagon, headquarters for the Department of Defense, the fourth plane crashed without affecting the public population in a field in Pennsylvania. In total nearly 3000 people lost their lives that day.

September 11, 2001, millions of New Yorkers and American citizens woke up and started their day, unprepared and unaware for the catastrophic attack that would be taking place in just a few short hours. At 8:46 a.m., Eastern Standard Time, Flight 11 crashed into the North Tower. The impact killed all of the passengers and crew as well as hundreds inside the building. At 9:03 a.m., a second plane, Flight 175, crashed into the corner of the South Tower killing passenger, crew, and workers who worked on floors seventy-five to eighty-three. Flight 77 crashed into the Pentagon at 9:37 a.m. killing approximately 185 individuals (History.com Staff). Because of the damaged to the support system, fires, and impact at extremely fast speed, the South Tower collapsed at 9:59 a.m. (Lipton and Glanz). Having heard about the acts of terrorism that had just taken place in New York and Washington, D.C., a group of passengers drove their plane, Flight 93, into a Pennsylvania field killing everyone on board but possibly saving hundreds of other lives in the process. The North Tower collapsed at 10:28 a.m. 102 minutes after being struck (History.com Staff). On September 11, 2001, almost twelve hundred people were wounded or killed by “coordinated suicide attempts” by Al Qaeda terrorists. In result to the four airplanes being hijacked and used for premediated reasons, the United States government instituted new regulations for entering the country and airport security as well as expounded on systems already in place.

On November 8, 1988, Republican Presidential candidate Vice President George H. W. Bush was elected as the forty-first President of the United States of America. Bush defeated Democratic challenger Governor Michael Dukakis by a ratio of a bout six-to-five. 49 million people voted for Bush, netting him 426 electoral votes while 42 million voted for Dukakis getting him 112 electoral votes. Strangely, a man not even running for President received an electoral vote; Lloyd Bentsen (Democratic Vice President Nominee) received one electoral vote from the state of West Virginia. Bush's victory was also a victory for the Republican Party, but the Democrats received a similar victory in that they
