War on Terrorism

One of the worst terrorists attacks in U.S. history occurred in the date 9/11 in 2001. The attack was about the World Trade Center collapsing to the ground, the Pentagon under attacked, and an attempting to destroy the White House. I interviewed my mom and she says this attack had enough coverage all over the local news and she watched the attack at the hospital after giving birth to my brother. I previously never knew that the Twin Towers were alive or gone today until I found out it’s gone now…

September 11, 2001: 19 militants associated with Al-Qaeda, an Islamic extremist group, hijacked four commercial airliners headed for Los Angeles and San Francisco. The hijackers took over the planes, crashing two into the World Trade Center in NYC, one into the Pentagon in Virginia, and another one into an empty field in Pennsylvania.

took hold of the nation and everything came to a standstill. On this day nothing else mattered but the tragedy taken place. The threat of terrorism arose from a subconscious state and came full force in a way that impacted every man, woman, and child witnessing 9/11.
