Today we watched a podcast made by one of Mr. Bruns' school news students about 9/11. Then we had blog discussions, also about 9/11. We talked about what happened that day, and also about al-Qaeda which is a radical Islamic/terrorist group led by Osama bin Laden. They were the people who organized the attacks. We also talked about some of the effects of the attacks. The security at U.S. airports became really heavy to make sure that this kind of thing can't happen again. Also, the U.S. waged war on Afghanistan which is where al-Qaeda is based/located. This war is called the War on Terror and is currently being faught today.
