The Septmber 11, 2001 attack -often referred to as 9/11- consisted on a serie of coordinated terrorist suicide attacks by Islamic extremists on that date upon the United States of America.That morning, nineteen terrorists affiliated affiliated with al-Qaeda hijacked four commercial passenger jet airliners. Each team of hijackers included a trained pilot. The hijackers intentionally crashed two of the airliners into the World Trade Center in New York City-one plane into each tower-; result the collapse of both buildings and irreparable damage to nearby buildings.
The hijackers crashed a third airliner into the Pentagon in Arlington Country, Virginia, near Washington D.C. Passengers and members of the flight crew on the fourth aircraft attempted to retake control of their planes from the hijackers; that plane crashed into a field near the town of Shanksville in rural Somerset Country, Pennsylvania. In adittion to the nineteen hijackers 2974 people died as an immdiate result of the attacks, and the death of at least one person from lung disease was ruled by a medical examiner to be a result of exposure to the toxic dust of the planes.
I think that this dramatic event have shocked peolple all around the world and we still remebering it and thinking about it 6 years after the disaster, it is qite impossible not to do it, don't you think?
So I hope you reflect about this fact and think how lucky we are to live in a non-developed country (-besides it have some desadvantages-), but also think about all these victims and their's families, who were as shock as us when this happend!!It is a good idea to look into the past sometimes and think about others besides we don't even know them; and try to give them our support (), they are going to feel it in their hearts...=)
