Talk about “911” Tragedy. Can you use several words to describe how people felt at that time? “911” tragedy is the result of a series of coordinated suicide attacks by terrorists upon the United States. On the morning of September 11th, 2001, terrorists hijacked four commercial passenger jet airliners. The hijackers intentionally crashed two of the airliners into the World Trade Center in New York City, resulting in the collapse of both buildings soon afterward and extensive damage to nearby buildings. The hijackers crashed a third airliner into the Pentagon. The fourth plane crashed into a field near Shanksville in rural Somerset County, Pennsylvania, after passengers and members of the flight crew on the fourth aircraft attempted to retake control of their plane. Excluding the 19 hijackers, 2974 people died as an immediate result of the attacks with another 24 missing and presumed dead. The overwhelming majority of casualties were civilians, including citizens from over 90 different countries.
