11 whole years, 9/11 Victims Remembered.

Today marked the 11th anniversary of the deadliest terrorist attacks ever to be witnesses by America. Back in 2001, two planes crashed into the World Trade Center towers on the morning of  September 11th. Hijacked by Al Qaeda terrorists, the first plane, which was the American Airlines Flight 11, crashed into the North Tower at 8.46 am. This was followed by United Airlines Flight 175 crashing into the South Tower 17 minutes later. Almost 3000 people were killed in the attacks. Many jumped from the towers to escape the fire and heat. Firefighters also lost their lives rescuing those trapped inside. Even though it's been 11 years, the impact and terror of that day is still as fresh as it was on that fateful morning. The wounds of the people have still not healed and probably never will, and the innocent people who lost their lives will always be remembered.
