NMAH Story: Story

As I sat in my history class that morning and watched various buildings on fire because of acts of terrorism, I witnessed the first attack on the United State since World War II was fought. This sad experiene put our country into a "war" against terrorism, which was also a first in my eyes. The United State has tried before to capture communistic countries' leaders but never in this same way. That morning my country was being attacked and what raged inside me the most was the American people let it happen before their eyes. I think that this could have been avoided if the American people would have paid alittle bit more attention to "suspicious" people instead of what type of fast food they were going to eat next.
