**"__United as one"__**
====**September 11, 2001 was a devistating day for proud americans every where. We all watched our beloved country get attacked by the al-Qaeda. The al-Qaeda formed a group of nineteen, to execute a terrifying suicide mission. They hijacked four planes, leaving the members onbored defensless. The al-Qaeda had origionally planned to fly the four jet airplanes into our four most beloved monuments/buildings. The first two attacks were on the twin towers, killing many in the buildings as well as the members on bored; within two hours our world trade centers had fallen down killing hundreds. There next attack hit the pentagon in Arlington, Virigina; just on the out side of Washington D.C. While the last jet airline was headed to the white house a few complications took place. The passengers made a drastic attempt to fight back when they got hijacked. These brave men and women died serving their country. In their attempt to fight back they were able to stop the jet from reaching its finall destination; with the huge cost of there lives, leavin friends and family behind. Not only did we loose our beloved landmarks but we lost our fellow americans. There was a total of 2,996 casulties. This devistating tragety took a toll on america, many people were barried in what was left of the world trade centers, were they were left to only hope that someone would find them before time wore out. Many memorials were built to give a respectful thanks to the brave women and men that were lost.**====
 * Outraged by the attacks of 9-11, united states government counter attacked by launching the war on terror. In my opinion it caused us tons of greif for the familys with soliders across seas. I am thankful for the men the women who lost there live to save are country. Thier bravery has helped me remember why i am proud to be an american.**
