How were the Twin Towers bombed on September 11 2001?
Why the Terrorists:
There are always groups of people in the world that hate. Hatred
is often focused on the United States because of the wealth and
world power of the US in comparison to so many other countries and
people in the world. There is some validity to hatred directed at
the US in that the US government has, on occasion, wielded its
power unwisely. Those who hate the US based on mistakes that the
government has made focus only on these mistakes, failing to take
into the picture the diversity of the people and ideas, or the
benefits that the US has also provided to the rest of the
world.
Why the Twin Towers:
The goal of the terrorists was to make the biggest impact on
targets that represented the wealth and power of the US. The Towers
represented the wealth, the Pentagon and the White House (or
Capitol building) represented the power. The terrorist were smart
enough to know that a lot of people would happen to be in the World
Trade Center (Twin Towers) at that time of day on a week day.
