September 11 and Pearl Harbor

9/11 and Pearl Harbor were two national disasters that affected the United States greatly. The Pearl Harbor attack was located on the island of Oahu in Hawaii and happened on December 7,1941 at 7:00 am when the air force was out doing drills. The 9/11 attack then was in Manhattan, New york on September 11, 2001 at about 8:00 am. These two attacks on our nation happened years apart, yet are so similar.

The attack on Pearl Harbor resulted in a total loss of 2,335 U.S. servicemen. A total number of serviceman killed was and 1,143 were wounded, a total of sixty-eight civilians were also killed as well thirty-five ,were wounded in the attack that day in december of 1941.A total of 2,343 men were killed, a total of 1,272 were wounded and 960 people remain missing. Due to the attack on the world trade center in 2001, 2,996 people were killed 18 people were rescued alive from the rubble. Only 1,600 people were identified out of the 2,749 that were present at the time that the twin towers collapsed. First I’ll be discussing the similarities between these two horrific tragedies.

On September 11, 2001 and on December 7, 1941 the United States of America was attacked by foreigners. These two events are very important things that have influenced our country and days that will never be forgotten in history. On December 7, 1941 the United States of America was attacked by the Japanese and on September 11, 2001 the United States of America was attacked by islamic terrorists both events were a national disaster. In both events thousands of innocent lives were taken by foreign attackers that entered our country. In the attack on Pearl Harbor around 2,400 people died within a matter of hours and on 9/11 around 3,000 people died. Both events were “sneak attacks” both Pearl Harbor and 9/11 were surprises to the nation. In both events planes were used to attack us the only difference was the location of the attack and date of the attack. In Pearl Harbor japanese planes attacked the battleships on battleship row and in new york city on 9/11, planes were hijacked to crash into the world trade center and also other locations like the pentagon.

Our nation has faced many acts of terrorism, and hate-filled attacks over the years it has been around. Many have caused destruction, pain to many families, and many Americans to be dead, but out of the countless attacks, two from the many unforgettable and horrendous attacks that our nation has faced was the attack of Pearl Harbor in December 7, 1941 and the attack of the World Trade Centers on September 11, 2001. Both these attacks were caused by hatred for our nation, and superiority feelings. Due to the catastrophic attacks and lives lost, these two events will not be forgotten easily in our nation's history for all the pain caused. The following is how Pearl Harbor compares to the attacks of 9/11 and how

It all started the morning of December 7, 1941 when Japanese leaders decided to bomb the United States. Families were then broke apart and things became much more complex in the lives of Americans.

On December 7, 1941 Japan bombed the United States at Pearl Harbor. The bombing of Pearl Harbor lasted very short than what you would expect which was only one day. Before Japan bombed Pearl Harbor, they started war with different nations that were around them. They did this to get the other nation’s materials, for an example oil, lumber, and coal. Japan was foolish for attacking the United States during WWII at Pearl Harbor; their motive was to take over the islands that the United States owned to become more powerful , in contempt of the end the Japanese lost and their cities were destroyed.

Introduction. I chose this battle because I had been hearing about the attack on Pearl Harbor, but I did not know much about it.

Witnesses of this event painted a portrait of a nation stunned, but determined to rise again.

Both Attacks were grave threats to our national security.
