How has the culture of the US changed after September 11?
About the same except now people freak out by the sound of "Muslim or Al Queda" like the sound a dog makes when it gets hit by a car.
The Emergency Broadcast System (control of all broadcast channels) was never used because a national emergency was never declared. If there had been terrorist attacks all over the country, the EBS would have been used to broadcast instructions from the government to citizens in affected areas.

Why was the World Trade Center destroyed?
The World Trade Center was destroyed by Terrorist organisation( Al Qaeda).This was on September 11. It was shut down by the terrorists as a way of getting even with American government, in other words, cause severe harm to the nation of America.
What motivated the terrorists to attack America?
The factors that motivated and permitted the terrorists to attack the World Trade Center, Pentagon and (unsuccessfully) the United States Capitol on September 11, 2001 included:
1) The establishment of Israel on land which was seen both in terms of Arab ethnic identity and Islamic Sharia law as belonging under Islamic rule on a permanent and up changeable basis. Although Muslim states had allowed Jews to live in them provided they paid a tax known as jizya, they did not allow non-Muslims any right to rule over Muslims as the Jews did in Israel. Consequently, Islamic Sharia law has provisions to call for jihad in the event of violation. Along with the violence used by the Israelis to establish Israel - involving the exodus of large numbers of Palestinians - this made most Arabs extremely angry at the US.
2) The wealth of the puritanical Muslim state of Saudi Arabia from its vast petroleum reserves gave large sums of money to groups wishing to return to the large-scale jihads which Islam was able to wage against the Christian West and Hindu and Buddhist Asia (plus less important religions in Zoroastrianism and Jainism) between 622 and 1683. The belief that Muslims should not be charitable to non-Muslims, which is entrenched in Saudi Arabian culture, led and leads many wealthy sheikhs to donate very large sums of money to terrorist organisations which view all non-Muslims as legitimate targets, especially if they threaten Islam or violate its laws. The US' decision to keep troops in the Arabian Peninsula after the Gulf War was/is viewed as a prime example.
3) In the US government's struggle to undermine the class war which has been continuous in Eurasia and the Americas since the Industrial Revolution, radical Muslim groups, with their belief that atheistic Marxists could legitimately be killed, were an exceptionally effective ally. This was seen clearly during the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan after an uprising by mullahs (who were generally wealthy landlords) against the People's Democratic Party of Afghanistan (PDPA) in 1978 and 1979. The result of this alliance with the Muslim Brotherhood was not only the recruitment and training of terrorists such a Osama bin Laden, but also an inability to see the danger in Muslim terrorism, or at least in Sunni Muslim radicalism.
4) Many Middle Eastern Muslims perceived the US as the "Great Satan" or as a world leader in producing nihilistic moral standards, especially in dress and entertainment.
What time did the north tower collapse?
i was one of the peoples alive i know what happen i was inside and at 10 mins of my job got ready then boom in the side of the building it was smoke everywhere if you wacth in side the north tower i was wearing grey
According to US officials, terrorists from the group Al-Qaeda hijacked four planes, two of which hit the world trade centre. The other crashed into the pentagon and the fourth was either shot down by the military, or the passengers managed to regain control (only to crash in a field).
It was an extraordinarily scary day for the world.
R.I.P all who died on the 11th September 2001.
The problem with the official story is that there is little to no scientific evidence to support this theory. For example, there is no scientific evidence whatsoever that the Twin Towers or WTC 7 fell the way the US government claims. See:

Why do some planes have two engines on on one side and one on the other?
While not impossible, that would be an AMAZINGLY rare configuration. A plane biult like that would be lopsided, have different drag/thrust from one side to Another. Most likely, you've simply seen planes at an angle that hid one Engine from view.
The configuration to date would not work. There have been craft constructed with 2 cockpits (one on either wing) with a central engine on the mainframe and there have been 3 engine where one is mounted each side of the fuselage and one of the fuselage under or rear of cockpit. The configuration in all designs previously and currently has had to be symmetrical. The load placed on the wing with a one to two factor engine would cause the craft to have to be flown nearly diagonally with the counter thrust taken up by the tail section.
Who was behind the terrorist attack on The World Trade Center?
It is allegedly said that Al-Qaeda were behind these terror attacks. The leader of Al-Qaeda is/was Osama Bin Ladin.
Did the twin towers kill people when they collapsed?
Oh, yes. Almost 3000 people died b/c of the attack on the Towers.
What were the planes in the September 11 attacks?
The September 11th terrorist attacks on the United States was one of the deadliest attacks ever on American soil. There were four different planes involved on that day. American Airlines Flight 11 and United Flight 175 hit the World Trade Center in New York City. United flight 93 went down in a field in western Pennsylvania. American flight 77 hit the Pentagon in Washington DC.
