Discover the tragic history of the September 11 Attacks...
Certain dates have entered the lexicon of popular understanding, becoming symbols that encompass complex stories, emotions, and understanding. Nowhere is that more true than in 9/11. These three simple digits represent a series of terror attacks in the United States on September 11, 2001, that left more than three thousand people dead, destroyed the best-known landmarks in New York City, and caused a wave of outrage across the world.

On this date, nineteen terrorists associated with the Islamic terrorist organization al-Qaeda hijacked four commercial airliners. Two were flown into the World Trade Center buildings in New York City, one was crashed into the Pentagon in Washington, DC, and the fourth went down in a field in Pennsylvania. None of the passengers on any of the flights survived. These were the most devastating terror attacks ever carried out against the United States, and their impact would shape the subsequent history of large areas of the world. As a direct result of 9/11, the United States led invasions of first Afghanistan and then Iraq.

What happened on that day in September 2001? Why was the Bush administration seemingly unaware of the threat posed by al-Qaeda? Did American intelligence agencies have any warning of an impending attack? And what happened after? This is the story of the September 11 attacks.
