The twin towers of the World Trade Center were not the only focus of the attacks on 11 September, 2001. Al Queda intended to bring the US and her allies to their knees in a coordinated attack on several targets.
On the morning of 11 September 2001, nineteen Al Queda trained operatives boarded and took control of four commercial flights bound for LA, and San Fransisco. At 8:46 AM Eastern Time, American Flight 11 was crashed into the north face of WTC Tower One. At 9:03 United Airlines Flight 175 was slammed into the south face of Tower Two. As both towers burned in New York City, American Flight 73 was flown at 9:37 AM into the western face of the Pentagon building in Washington DC; and, passengers of United Flight 93 attempted to retake the plane at 10:03 AM and it was driven into the ground near Shanksville, Pennsylvania.
Al Queda failed to learn from history. While the attacks against the US were serious, as subsequent attacks against other targets in other nations, these only serve to set our resolve. We have entered into a guerrilla war. The US is familiar with this type of conflict, and it has bloodied our national face. It will not defeat us.
Some sixty years ago Japanese Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto is alleged to have said, "I fear all we have done is to awaken a sleeping giant and fill him with a terrible resolve," after the Empire of Japan conducted a sneak attack on the Naval shipyard at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii in 1941. While the attribution of the quote is unclear, the results are of crystal clarity. This has been and is being repeated.
