9/11
9/11/2001
the day of September 11th 2001 was a tragic day in the history of America. Due to terrorist attacks the world trade center towers were both destroyed along with other world trade center building. The pentagon was also hit and thanks to some brave heroics from some passengers on one of the four planes one that was targeted at Washington DC was crashed into a field near shanksville Pennsylvania. 9/11 was a turning point in history because it caused a shock to the world and many citizens would be outraged that such an attack could happen on domestic soil.
