Remembering 9/11

On Sept. 11, 2001 the world was changed forever. The terrorists group Al Queda had sucidist who hijacked four planes and did the most horrifying thing this country has ever seen or heard of. What they did will never be forgotten. Although three planes were successful, and I say successful while gritting my teeth, one was stopped from getting to its destination due to very brave, average citizens.

When the first plane hit one of the towers it was a moment of terror and shock. No one knew exactly what to do at the time and no one had ever thought such a thing could happen.  Then when news came that there were more planes being hijacked the world went into a severe panic.

Just as the shock from the first plane kind of subsided and people began to try and clean when the second plane struck the second tower. After that there was nothing anyone could do. Then it was only a matter of time, before the other two met there destination. The next target was the Pentagon, which was hit and destroyed a whole side of the building. The fourth plane was brought down due to brave citizens who fought the terrorist, but unfortunatly the plane crashed into a field.

Even though it was ten years ago when this act of terrorism happened nobody should ever forget the death, pain, and suffering that everyone had to go through. Another thing is that we should also remember the firemen, policemen, and medics who were there and trying to save as many lives as they could.That is what everyone should remember about 9/11.
