Where and when were the twin towers bombed?
The towers were hit by planes and destroyed on 9/11.
Or the 11th of September, 2001.
---
The bombing of the twin towers occurred in 1993. The huge truck bombed did some damage, killed several people, and injured hundreds. The failure of the truck bombing attack in 1993 more-or-less led to the infamous attack of 9/11/2001.
The twin towers were bombed on September 11, 2001. That is why September 11 is now known as Patriot's Day.
Another View: The World Trade Center DID experience a truck-bomb attack on February 26, 1993 when a vanload of high explosives explosives was detonated in an underground parking garage, causing significant damage to several subterranean floor of the complex and a loss of life in the dozens. Subsequent investigation revealed that the attack was carried out by Muslim Religious Extremists.
ALSO:
The World Trade Center (both buildings) were destroyed on September 11, 2001 but they were NOT bombed. The 'twin towers' were attacked by commercial aircraft which had been hijacked by Islamic Fundamentalist Extremists who flew the planes into the building causing such catastrophic damage that both eventually collapsed causing a loss of life in the thousands and property damage which probably has not yet been calculated but is in the range of billions of dollars.

How many boys died on September 11?
If by "boys" you mean children, then three boys died that day. Two 11 year old boys were on the flight that crashed into the Pentagon and a 3 year old boy was on the plane that crashed into the south tower of the WTC. If you just mean males in general, then there were too many to count. About 2, 976 people were killed, and it was probably fairly evenly split between men and women.

The home grown Oklahoma City bomber Timothy McVeigh.

Why does the US support of Israel have to do with terrorist attack?
Answer 1
Because the countries that surround Israel DO NOT support a Jewish settlement in what THEY perceive is Arab land. The Arab countries have attacked Israel - and that was the 6 day war in 1967. The main problem was that Arab armies are very poorly trained and they HATE following orders - and they are not the bravest soldiers on the earth!!! And that is why 7 Arab countries attacked tiny Israel in 1967 - and within 6 days the Israeli Army turned it into a slaughter - with the attacking countries - begging on their knees for mercy - and for the very well trained Israeli Army to stop the massacre - which they did!
Answer 2
Looking at it from a different P.O.V, I think that Bush does not like that his ally, Israel, is being attacked by civilians who only have rocks to throw. So he thought: 'Hey! Why not help Israel get rid of the civilians protesting for peaceful life and a good standard of living'
Answer 3
The question relies on a supposition, namely that the US support of Israel is in some way related to terrorism. It does not. The United States supported Israel prior to 9/11 and prior to the first acts of terrorism against Israel in the Intifadas. The United States support for the State of Israel comes from a variety of sources. Israel has cooperated with the United States on diplomatic issues, military and intelligence exchanges, large amounts of trade, and significant technological investment. In addition there a numerous Americans who support the State of Israel because of religious convictions on top of the already-listed reasons. Since the United States suffered a terrorist attack, there is certainly more cooperation and communication between the United States and Israel on that, but it is in no way the basis or most important part of their mutual relationship.
What were the goals of 9-11 hijackers?
The goals of the September 11 attacks from Al Qaeda's perspective were to:
- Humiliate the U.S. government
- Psychologically arouse its population
- Instill terror in all to bring about ideological change (terrorism)
- Give a slap in the face to capitalism by taking down a major symbol of it (world trade centers)
- Economically denting the U.S.
In that respect Americans have been absorbed in fear and bigotry/hate towards the "others" (Muslims) rise of security, loss of freedom (try traveling the skies!)
Last but certainly not least: Provocation of an enduring war that will lead to the United States' financial deterioration and military spending over its own homeless, bankrupt citizens who need tax dollars.
