Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: The Impacts of 9/11 On September 11th 2001, the United States had changed forever. Four U.S airplanes were hijacked by terrorists. Two of the airplanes crashed into the World Trade Centers, one crashed in the Pentagon, and one in Pittsburgh. After the World Trade Centers collapsed, the nation felt anger and sadness inside of them. One day after 9/11, my whole school was confused about what happened the day before. Ever since then, my friends have been talking about the attack. Even though I do not know anyone who had any family or friends inside of the building, we all felt sad. A lot of people wanted to attack Osama Bin Laden for what he had done. Some of my friends were afraid to fly into airplanes because of the hijackings. The terrorist have changed the way a lot of how a lot of people take things for granted. When I got home from school that day, my parents wanted to know if I knew about what happened that day. I told them yes, and talked about what we did in school. But ever since that day we do not discuss it that much. A lot of my family felt anger against Afghanistan and Osama Bin Laden. They would talk as if they wanted to attack him and his other terrorists. What really upset my family the most was when they showed the Islamic people cheering about the attacks. Since the attack, America has donated a lot of money to charities and family?s that lost someone. Even though the attack put America in tears, it only made us stronger. People are being more courteous to other people they see. Even though it made us mourn for the first weeks or so, we have overcome our fears and are ready to do whatever it takes to stop terrorism. One year later, people are still buying flags and other souvenirs to show they care. The attack on 9/11 did not really affect me because I had no family or friends that were injured or killed inside. The attacks made me feel anger inside to the people of Afghanistan and terrorists groups. It also made me feel sad and care for the people who had someone who died from the terrorists. I donated someone money to help funds to try and make a difference even though I do not understand what they are going through. So even though the terrorists thought they could bring America down by taking out some of our buildings, they were wrong. They only made us grow together and made us stronger.
