The things that happened back in September 11th‚ 13 years ago‚ changed the world that we live in so many ways.

The September 11 attacks were a series of suicide attacks by Al-Qaeda upon the United States. On the morning of the attacks 19 of Al-Qaeda’s terrorists hijacked four jet airliners. The hijackers then crashed two of the airliners into the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center‚ killing everyone on board and many of those who were working in the buildings.

The official account of 9-11 does not give a sound explanation of where any extremely hot material in the WTC collapse piles could have come from‚ nor does it give a sound explanation for the unusually persistent heat at Ground Zero.

9/11‚ a day of death‚ destruction‚ and devastation. It’s early morning‚ about 8:45 a.m.‚ and American Airlines Flight 11 crashes into the north tower of the World Trade Center.

Without falling into jingoism or being over-sentimental‚ Robert Pinsky’s poem "9/11" generates a commendable ode to the spirit that drives this country‚ in addition to revealing the American culture for what it truly is enthusiastic and frivolous‚ courageous and fallible‚ petty and resilient. For most Americans‚ September 10th is Before‚ and everything since is After. Citizens from every state across the U.S. responded immediately to the attacks by giving blood and donating much-needed items

United States Embassies in Dar es Salaam‚ Tanzania‚ and Nairobi‚ Kenya. What if this was not the case? What if it was a cover up by our own government system? ZERO: An Investigation of 9/11 covers these theories in an extreme controversially opinionated argument. The documentary in short explains that 9/11 was set up by the government‚ most likely in a way to foreshadow war. It also says the Twin Towers were demolished by explosives that were smuggled into the building. They further stated that

To answer the question‚ what is the historical significance of 9/11 the first idea I would like to bring up is that it was the first effective attach on American soil in a long time. Before we get into the history making lets talk a little bit about why the attach happened. The reason the terrorists attach us is because their anger flowed from three rivers of rage the fist one is the anger and frustration they have because their civilization was once first in the world and now they are fighting
