Remembering 9/11

Good morning,Its about 12:10am and today is 9/11,

Exactly a decade after the Mighty United States of America was deliberately attacked by a terrorist on the morning of September 11, 2001. The two planes was intentionally crashed into the World Trade center or also known as Twin towers. The two towers collapsed.

Time line for the day of September 11 attacks 

''... early in the morning of September 11, 19 hijakcers took control of the four commercial airliners en route to San Francisco and Los Angelos after take off from Boston...8:30am, five hijackers crashed American airlines flight 11 into the World Trade North Center (1WTC) and 9:03am another five hijackers crashed United Airlines 175 into the South Towers (2WTC)"

No one ever expected that incident until it happened!  I was going to school ( I was freshmen high) at that time when the news broke out through a breaking news form a morning news show Alas Singko Y medya ( a morning show of ABS CBN literally means 5:30am) . I really thought It was just a scene of a certain Hollywood movie until my dad reacted, but I ignored it for the fact that I was not into current events at that time. It was a normal day for me and it was! I arrived at the school and attended my first class-A-history-class! First thing I heard from our teacher was about the attacked. This means more information about what happen and it made sense to me. Our teacher even made it as an home work to gather a news clippings about the 9/11 attacked. Upon going home, as expected all news was the attacked and that time was so clear to me that it was a TERRORIST ATTACK!

The 9/11 was tragic! I personally called it a black day. Many got injured and the worst many died; civilians and military alike. The whole world mourned and cry together with the Americans.

"There were a total of 2, 996 deaths, including the 19 hijackers and 2,977 victims. The victims included 246 on the four planes (from which there were no survivors), 2,606 in the New York city in the towers and on the ground, 125 at the pentagon. All deaths in the attacks were civilian except for 55 military personnel killed at the pentagon.."

The 9/11 attacks made an immediate impact to the Americans and also to the world. People went out to there homes to help in rescuing. Vigils around the world were made. Leaders around the globe condemned the attacked. But the incident increases the tension of Muslim and non-Muslim around the world.  Significantly after the attack all countries across the world are into the combat of terrorism which includes the Philippines.  

10 years after, I can say that USA or the MIGHTY UNITED STATES OF AMERICA has recovered in terms of damage and integrity. Also we must not forget the scars left to the family of the victims ( civilians, rescuers , military) until this day they are still wishing that 9/11 attacks didn't exist and thus their love ones are still alive living with them.

''On the day of the attacks, New York City Mayor Rudy Guiliani proclaimed, ''we will rebuild. We're going to come ot this stronger than before, politically stronger,economically stronger. The skyline will be made whole again''

As we commemorate the 9/11. Lets not forget the victims of the attacks, the rescuers who were there since day one of the attack and also to the military who fought for Justice. Its amazing how the family of the victims moved on from that tragic black 9/11. Lets give the credit to the American Government which they supported the family of the victims financially and emotionally.Today is a moment of prayer. A moment  of remembering 9/11.

''On every anniversary, in the New York, the names of the victims who died there are read out against a backround of somber music. the President of the United States of  America also attends a memorial service at pentagon.''
