In the years immediately following the September 11, 2001 attacks, the US government explained that the attacks were carried out by members of the terrorist organisation al-Qaeda, headed by Osama Bin Laden. On the morning of September 11, nineteen terrorists hijacked four commercial airplanes by using knives, box cutters, mace and fake explosives. They piloted the planes themselves and crashed these into the World Trade Center and The Pentagon. According to the scientific account, the World Trade Center towers later collapsed due to the impact damage, removal of the fire protection and the intense fires. Due to the collapse of World Trade Center One and Two, all the surrounding World Trade Center buildings were heavily damaged as well, leading in turn to their complete or partial collapse. United Airlines Flight 93 crashed in Pennsylvania later that day after passengers hearing of the previous attacks in air phone and cell phone conversations and brought the plane down. The U.S. government claimed it had no advance knowledge of the attacks.

Organizations representing the victims' families such as the Jersey Girls demanded further investigation and, after initial reluctance, the administration acceded to their request. The bipartisan 9/11 Commission was formed tasked with “not placing individual blame” but providing an explanation as to what happened and making recommendations to prevent a recurrence. In 2004 the commission released its report. It revealed that there were prior warnings of varying detail that the United States would be attacked by al-Qaeda. These were ignored due to a lack of communication between various law enforcement personnel. The report cited bureaucratic inertia and laws passed in the 1970s designed to prevent abuses that resulted in major scandals during that era for the lack of interagency communication. The report also faulted both the Clinton and the Bush administration with “failure of imagination”. The explanation laid out in the report has been endorsed by most members of both major political parties and news media, and is what conspiracy theorists refer to as "the official account" of the September, 2001 attacks.

Could we have prevented it is the question. We always know about the problems, but there are so many and with all the legal mumbo jumbo of America, it is hard to do things sometimes. However, I feel that if we would have stopped the planes they would have hit us with something else right after. Because America only strengthened its borders and regulations due to the incident. Therefore, no incident would mean that the regulations would still have been lax and something else would have taken its place.

It think it was done, to upgrade airport security. I can't tell you how rediculous is it was, to go through that gate check, before I went to my plane!

I just traveled to Hawaii for a month prior. Last time my carry-on went through the rom, with ease. THEN I had to come back to Cali, by a horried gate check! Rolling Eyes
