9/11

     On September 11, 2001, four passenger airlines were hijacked by the islamic terrorist group
al-Qaeda. The four planes were all heading to California. Two of the planes hit the world trait center in New York City. One plain hit the north tower and one hit the south tower. Within 2 hours both buildings had collapsed. The third plane crashed into the Pentagon in Washington D.C. Most of the west wing collapsed. The last plane was intended for the white house in Washington D.C., but the passengers on the plane rebelled against the terrorist and brought down the plane in Shanksville, Pennsylvania. Around 3000 people were killed in total and 6000 more were injured.
     This was the worst terrorist attack america had ever had. So many people died from this. The people on the last plane saved so many lives by crashing the plane before it could reach its destination. These people were some of the bravest people. Also the firemen who helped save people and tried to put out the fires. They truly made a difference in everything. Around 350 firemen died in 9/11, but they died saving people which is the most respectable thing ever.
