The Remembrance Of 9/11 Research Paper

The Remembrance of 9/11 Imagine you’re having an incredibly relaxing day walking through New York City in the cool, crisp weather. Suddenly, a plane crashes into the North building of the Twin Towers. Your heart begins to break as innocent people are jumping off the South building, committing suicide, right in front of you. This perspective shows the agonizing pain of someone just walking by the Twin Towers at the time of the incident. The attacks on September 11, 2001 were so tragic and traumatizing that 14 years later people are still creating new things to memorialize the losses and questioning the facts of that devastating day.
To begin, 9/11 was so unbearably awful that no one could believe how many deaths happened because of Al-Qaeda

    In October 2001, just one month after the tragic September 11 attacks on the twin towers, Prime Minister Jean Chrétien pledged to support the United States. It was announced that Canada would join a UN-approved NATO coalition attack in Afghanistan (in order to support the United States). The purpose of this was to find and neutralize al-Qaeda which was a global militant Islamist organization.
