On September 11, 2001 a devastating act took place in New York City. Terrorists destroyed the World Trade towers, and also the lives of many innocent people. It happened at about 8:30 am in the morning while I was in school. Hijackers hijacked a plane and ordered the pilot to crash into one of the World Trade towers. The tower immediately burst into flames and started collapsing. Many people that were walking or just passing through got injured during the tragic incident. When I went home that's what I heard from my mom, and I was so devastated and angry that something so outrageous could happen to America. The last time an attack of this size happened against the United States, we ended up dropping a nuclear bomb ton the aggressors. There is no place that these terrorists can hide. It may take a little time, but we will find out who did this and eliminate them for good.

I feel as though the world should pray and unite, and be thankful for what we have right now; cherish the ones we love and adore, and don't let anything as cowardly as this hold us back.
