It's been a long time since the 9/11 attacks. It's also been a long time since the World Trade Center (the twin towers) had been destroyed by terrorists. The lives of all of the Americans in New York City have been lost since that tragic day. Their families, including the FDNY (Fire Department of New York) and the NYPD (New York Police Department), and the citizens of the U.S. are still mourning the loss of their loved ones. It made me a little sad just to see the twin towers being destroyed by terrorists. It also made me sad that all of us Americans are still haunted by that tragic day. Then-President George W. Bush knew about the 9/11 attacks, but didn't do anything to help the U.S. Military find out who was responsible for the deaths of the victims of the 9/11 attacks in New York City. But now, because of the terrorist attack, the United States of America almost lost its innocence. What I saw on TV that night was a funeral for the ones who've lost their lives on Tuesday, September 11, 2001. There had always been a lot of fund-raisers and a blood drive for the ones who've survived the 9/11 attacks. Even though it had been ten years or even a lifetime since America was attacked by terrorists, we, as Americans, will still stand strong. I hope the one responsible for the destruction of the World Trade Center faces his judgment day. God bless America.
