September 9, 2001 was a day America will remember forever.  The Al-Qaeda had control over four planes, in which they hijacked. 

They ended up crashing one plane into one of the twin towers of the World Trade Center.  Just minutes later, another plane hit the other tower. 

The third plane hit the Pentagon building in Washington DC.  The fourth plane was heroically taken back over by passengers aboard the plane, and crashed into a field in Pennsylvania.

Shortly after, Osama Bin Laden was suspected as guilty.  He was then believed to be America's most hated person.  The attacks were terrible.  He had planned for the attacks to destroy the United States.

The United States have changed a lot of security in airports, most people think it is frustrating, but it saves lives.  Airport security is very serious, and easy to set off.

My thoughts are; why would anybody want to do this?  The people working for this man must have been totally dumb for doing this!  If I were on any of the planes, I would have done what the heroic people did.  I would have formed a group of big, healthy, people and take them down before they "got to anything too important."  It is terrible that this had to happen to our country, but it makes us stronger, and ready for other attacks.
