11Th September 2001

On Tuesday, September 11, 2001, the people in United States could be witness to the bloodiest day ever in US history. Four plains were crashed into three different buildings. Two off the plains were crashed into the World Trade Centre in Manhattan, New York City. This resulted in totally chaos. People didn’t know what to do, so 200 people jumped out from the upper floors in World Trade Centre and down to on ground. But they didn’t survive.

No one inside the buildings and plains had a chance to survive, as the temperature rose for many thousand degrees.



The hijackers used utility knives, some form of noxious chemical spray, such as tear gas and/or pepper spray to take control of the plains. On three of the plains, the terrorists used bomb threats.



So why did the terrorists do this to many innocent people? Was...
