September / 11 : The Biggest Attack On American Soil And It

On September 11, 2001, 19 people hijacked four airliners and carried out suicide attacks against their targets.. Two of the planes crashed into the towers of the World Trade Center in New York City, the third plane hit the Pentagon just outside Washington, D.C., and the fourth crashed in a field in Pennsylvania. Over 3,000 people were killed during the attacks in New York City and Washington, D.C., including more than 400 police officers and firefighters. (“9/11 attacks”2010). The conspiracy theories started just days after the September 11, 2001 attack. The conspiracies were easy to spread fast when using the internet and they became more and more elaborate as time went on. The most popular 9/11 conspiracy theory is that 9/11 was orchestrated by the American government.

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.

9/11 was of the biggest “terrorist attack” in the United States History. Many building was destroyed in this single day. The Twin Towers of the World Trade Center, the pentagon, and crash in field near Shanksville in western Pennsylvania. The day of 9/11 was a conspiracy.

A thorough investigation has been conducted and results from it show that Flight 93 was staged. Pessimists consider that the plane settled safely while a counterfeit plane was shot down. Other theorists trust that the passengers were butchered and their bodies disposed of (The 11 Most Compelling 9/11 Conspiracy Theories). The infamous cell phone calls were fake. Scientists have also verified that there was absolutely no way cell phone reception could have been reachable at the altitude typical airplanes fly at (The 11 Most Compelling 9/11 Conspiracy Theories). Also, where was the blood, the bodies? At the site of where the plane crashed, there was no tangible evidence of anyone being present on that plane (Bumiller). If such a crash were to present itself, one would think there would be dead bodies and blood, conveniently there were absolutely no evidence to show for. However, the Pentagon attack may be the most puzzling event of the day. Theorists maintain that the holes in the Pentagon were much smaller than a commercial American Airlines plane (Newsone). They also question why the plane was not shot down prior to its impact. Another eyebrow raiser is why was the plane flown into the one section of the Pentagon that was vacated due to renovations? Scientists have also confirmed that an aluminum plane could not have permeated the steel structure of the Pentagon; it would have simply disintegrated upon impact. (The 11 Most Compelling 9/11 Conspiracy Theories). Our nation may never know the answers to these puzzling events, but it is definitely something that makes one second guess their perception of what is right and what it wrong. It was also physically proven that the Twin Towers could not have collapsed from gravity alone. The falling of the towers appeared similar to a controlled demolition and seemed aided by the

The events that occurred on September 11th, 2001 are some that will never be forgotten in American History. What was a beautiful day in New York City quickly turned into a American Nightmare as multiple planes where hijacked by a terrorist group by the name of Al Quida. While these events have where one of the worst tragedies in American history their also comes many conspiracies theories. Some of these theories suggest that George W. Bush knew about or even planned the tragic events that happened that day. However these conspiracierie theories are simply false. Conspiracy theories that blame the events that occurred on September 11th on the American Government are not true. Still to be able to prove these theories incorrect one must understand what exactly happened on that terrible day in New York City.

Those who believe the WTC was destroyed by controlled demolitions argue the debris that blew out of windows was the result of an explosive. But experts disagree by saying the debris was simply the contents of the offices inside being blown out with air as the floors collapsed on top of each other. Also, demolition professionals say explosives are placed on lower levels, whereas, the planes hit the buildings at very high floors. No signs of a bomb were found in the wreckage of the buildings (Debunking the 9/11 myths, n.d.). Those who believe the planes that hit the WTC were remote controlled say there is no way al Qaeda could have even come up with the plan to hijack and crash the planes, much less have acted it out within an hour. The manufacturer stated the planes that hit the buildings had only one system of control: from the flight deck. Many telephone calls were made from passengers on the planes saying they were being hijacked.

The terrorist attacks of September 11, altered American 's perceptions of the role in the world by strongly supporting the increased spending on national security and counterterrorism. Also, Americans have become more aware of how and where to engage in the world. As a result of the attacks, the US now has a defense that totals to nearly half the global total and has military dominance over scene, air, and space. The US also has the capability to dispatch massive military power anywhere in the world making them the system shaper. You may ask yourself just have a bad or do you check on September 11, 2001 was that led to this chaos and security becoming abnormally tight you may ask yourself just have a bad do you check on September 11, 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.

On September 11, 2001 four passenger commercial jet airliners were hijacked and as a result approximately 3,000 human lives were lost. When asked about 9/11, many can recall exactly what they were doing when they heard the news that a plane crashed into one of the World Trade Center (WTC) buildings and many Americans can tell you how it all unfolded and the reason behind such a travesty. The “official story” provided by officials, and restated by Sofia Shafquat, producer of “9/11 Mysteries: Demolitions” say that “four passenger planes were hijacked and taken radically off course, within an hour, two of the planes had flown into the enormous steel towers of the World Trade Center, creating fires and eventually toppling them” (Shafquat).

This has led conspiracist to think that the initial story of 9/11 is nothing but a theory to cover the government's actions. Leading the public to believe that hijackers took control and crashed planes into three buildings. “...carefully collected and analyzed evidence” proves the crash

Unbelievably a plane was hijacked after those three crashes. We believe it was headed for the White House. The passengers had forced the plane to crash so there wouldn’t have been any more lives taken. Although the passengers knew they would die either way. People were jumping from 100 floors up. Because they didn’t want to burn to death from the fire. They would have died either way. Those who had found themselves below the crash in the tower, were in the “mouth of hell’. Ash and smoke everywhere outside of the towers. Below the tower debris was falling everywhere. The 1st plane was sensed before it was heard. Sensing danger, the dogs had lifted their heads. Those in the north tower, below the crash, rushed to the ground. 343 firefighters and 60 police officers were killed on the day of 9-11. The age range of killed victims were 2-85 years old. In Washington at the Pentagon, 184 people were killed. Around $500,000 was estimated the costs to plan the attack. To pick up 1.8 million tons of debris, it took 3.1 million hours and had cost $750 million to clean all of the debris up. Terrorist were taking flight lessons and lived in the U.S. for over a year. 19 terrorists were involved in this

“The (WTC) collapse appeared to be similar to a controlled demolition” (Thomas, 07/08/2011). Many speculated that the towers were in fact blown down with explosives placed in selected locations. Some witnesses accounted hearing explosions inside the building as they attempted to escape the building. Many architects and scientists maintain that jet fuel cannot produce enough heat to melt the steel frame of the two buildings. There were no planes to hit building 7 of the trade center, but it was demolished in the same fashion as the twin towers were.

Europe’s strong response to terror attacks in the USA should not be underestimated, as parts of the 9/11 attacks were planned in Europe and there were over 20 individuals from Europe who were imprisoned in Guantanamo Bay on behalf on US. The attacks are considered as a security breach that was instantly classified as a notable threat that concerned the United States and the Western world, giving rise to extensive amount of political moves, policy-making, exceptional legislation, and military action abroad. Attacks of 9/11 had a far-reaching impact on the way the EU would shape its migration policies; that the nexus between migration and asylum policy on the one hand and security concerns on the other hand became more prominent. It is contended,

Since the events that shook the United States and the rest of the world on September 11th of 2001 everyone has seen the world differently, terrorist attacks have happened all over the world and struck fear in people’s minds. But for every successful terrorist attack against a target there are multiple other attacks that where caught before the terrorists could strike. Before the attack could happen law enforcement and other personnel stopped them because of information that was received or discovered regarding the pending terrorist attack. Where does this information all come from?

“The U.S. has already suffered three attacks on September 11, 2001…” (Chavez, Linda). The United States suffered three attacks in one day. There was four aircrafts full with passengers but only one didn’t make it’s destination which was to Washington D.C. instead it crashed near Shanksville, Pennsylvania. One attack was the World Trade Center known as the Twin Towers that burned down, then the pentagon was also attacked. Therefore September 11, 2001 was a big tragic day to the United States because of the attacks they had to deal with all in one day.
