The tragedy of September 11th
On Tuesday September 11th, 2001 there was and attack on America. I was in Barker Central School. My friends and me were in Earth Science just hanging out and talking because our teacher was not ready to start class. Then a teacher came in and said that a plane had just hit the World Trade Tower. I had no clue what the World Trade Centers were. Now after the planes have hit them I realize how important they were. The news showed live pictures of Ground Zero. The pile where the buildings used to be is all smoke; you could not see anything because of all the smoke. I had heard that a plane hit the two Worlds Trades Towers, Pentagon and the 7th tower of the other building falling. I went and turned on the television I saw people falling or jumping out the buildings. There was smoke and fire in the sky, buildings falling everywhere they landed very hard to the ground. The people in the buildings are very hurt, sick, and don?t know what?s going on. People died and they don?t even know why. The people that did live are very lucky because people who did die had to go through attack by the terrorists who were Muslim extremist that they didn?t know who actually did it. People were very upset about the whole thing. People that did this need to learn how to be a person and get something out of their lives and not destroy our country. If they wanted to talk about their problems or what they have against us they should of tried to talk to us about it. Yes! They sent signs of warnings, but if they would of talked to something or us we could of explained. These people that died were working hard. They were innocent they had no right to die, suffer, get hurt. These people that did do it have problems because it?s not our fault. If they have problems with the government they could of talked to them about it. They shouldn?t have to take it out on the U.S people. Everyone was watching the news to see if his or her relatives were hurt or died. That would be very upsetting and sad if I found out that a relative if someone or mine I loved had died. People couldn?t believe what was going on. They didn?t know how to react. My friend April had an aunt and uncle that worked there and she was crying because she was in school and couldn?t find out much in school. Now everyone that go places are scared to go outside to goes anywhere and that?s not right People shouldn?t have to be scared in their own neighborhood. This attack was very harmful and upsetting. I feel that this should not have ever happened because we didn?t do anything to them. Our government might have done something, to make these people mad, but innocent people should not be killed. I think the whole thing is mostly because they don?t like our country and wealth. Even now months later people are still worried what?s going to happen the next day, next week, or the rest of their lives.
