intro
My presentation is about The September eleven attacks, also called 9/11,

These Were a series of 4 terrorist attacks,
By the terrorist group al-Qaeda against the United States
on September 11, 2001.

The attacks killed almost 3,000 people and injured over 6,000 others,

It caused at least 10 billion dollars in; infrastructure and property damage.

Additional people have died of 9/11 related diseases in the years following
the attacks.

Four passenger airplanes
from 2 U.S. air company’s; United Airlines and American Airlines,
were hijacked by 19 al-Qaeda terrorists.
both were domestic flights and they were headed to San Francisco and Los Angeles.



Planes
Two of the planes, American Airlines Flight 11 ,
and United Airlines Flight 175, were crashed into the North and South towers of
the World Trade Center complex in Lower Manhattan. Within 2 hours, both (110-
story) towers collapsed.

Heavy dust and the resulting fires caused a collapse of all other buildings in the
World Trade Center complex, including the (47-story) 7 World Trade Center tower,
as well as terrible damage to ten other large surrounding buildings.

A third plane, American Airlines Flight 77, crashed into the Pentagon,
this is the headquarters of the U.S. Department of Defense in Virginia. The
Pentagon also collapsed because of the crash.

The fourth plane, United Airlines Flight 93, was headed towards Washington D.C.,
but crashed into a field in Pennsylvania, after its passengers defeated the
hijackers.

, Suspicion quickly fell on al-Qaeda. The United States responded by launching the
War on Terror and invading Afghanistan to remove the Taliban,
which had failed to comply with U.S. demands to extradite Osama bin Laden and to
push out al-Qaeda from Afghanistan.

As a consequence of the attacks, the United States has been in a state of;
national emergency ever since 2001.

Many memorials have been constructed including:
- the National September 11 Memorial & Museum in New York City,
- the Pentagon Memorial in Virginia,
- the Flight 93 National Memorial in Pennsylvania.




2.Al Qaeda
The origins of Al-Qaeda can be traced to 1979 when the Soviet Union invaded
Afghanistan. Osama bin Laden, now leader of Al-Qaeda, traveled to Afghanistan
and helped organize fights to resist the Soviets.

In 1996, bin Laden released his first fatwā, ( = a kind of major point of Islamic law)
- In the fatwa he was calling for American soldiers to leave Saudi Arabia
(who were there after the Gulf war.)

In a second fatwā in 1998, bin Laden outlined his objections to American foreign
policy with respect to Israel and identified the Iraq sanctions as a reason to kill
Americans

Bin Laden arranged the attacks and denied his involvement but later recalled his
false statements. bin Laden stated on September 16, 2001, "I stress that I have not
carried out this act, which appears to have been carried out by individuals with
their motivation.

In November 2001, U.S. forces recovered a videotape. In the video, bin Laden
admits foreknowledge of the attacks.

Bin Laden said he had personally demanded his followers to attack the World
Trade Center and the Pentagon.

however the U.S. never sued bin Laden for the 9/11 attacks, but he was on the
FBI's Most Wanted List for the bombings of the U.S. Tanzania, and (Nairobi,) Kenya.

Although Osama bin Laden who first denied any involvement,
