Americans were in shock as they woke up on the morning of September 11, turned on the news, and saw photos of national landmarks billowing up in smoke. No one could believe that we, the strongest and most developed nation in the world, was watching their nation go up in flames. Initially, after only the first attack, everyone believed that the crash was a mistake. The thought was that the navigation systems on the plane broke and that it lost control, flying too low and hitting the towers.
As soon as the second building was hit, everyone in the country knew that America had been the target of a terrorist attack. It was now obvious that the threats from Al Qaeda were legit. Right away, the FBI started the manhunt for Osama Bin Laden, needing the man who caused our country so much pain.
