Has 9/11 Benefitted America? Total devastation, thousands of lives lost, the worst terrorist attack in American history. On September 11th, 2001, Islamic terrorists had hijacked four American Airlines planes with the intentions to reign terror on the United States of America, two of the airplanes crashing into the Twin Towers, one into the Pentagon, and one in a field in Pennsylvania. Many people speculate that these attacks were the responsibility of Osama Bin Laden, especially after a recent report by news outlet Independent. To quote the article;
?Osama bin Laden planned the September 11 attacks after being ?inspired? by a chance discussion about a plane crash in the US, al-Qaeda propaganda has claimed.? (Dearden 1)
In summary, the article claims that an Al-Qaeda propaganda magazine, titled al-Masr?, stated that Bin Laden, upon hearing about the EgyptAir plane crash on November 1st, 2000, asked ?Why didn?t [Gameel Al-Batouti] crash [the plane] into a building?? Osama was said to be inspired by the deliberate crashing of the EgyptAir plane. The al-Masr? article then goes on to claim that that moment of inspiration was the origin of the 9/11 plot.
Was the motive behind the terrorist attack to wage a holy war? Was the attack carried out to plant fear in the hearts of the American people? Or was the catastrophic attack all for Al-Qaeda?s notoriety? The attack was terrible indeed, but many people claim that despite the terrorist attack that took place on 9/11, 2001, and

On the morning of September 11 2001, terrorists hijacked four planes from American Airlines and United Airlines with the goal of ruining the U.S economy.

With the evidence stated before, the researcher believes, 9/11 was a cover up planned from the start that the United States Government made up as an excuse to join the war in the Middle East. Along with government involvement they also blamed the attacks on a terrorist group. The researcher also believes that when an official government agency blames their doing on a terrorist are they any better than this person? The evidence that has been gathered for this topic shows, there is more to 9/11 than what is being told. The incriminating evidence showed the researcher and many other researchers that a controlled substance was used for the demolition of the towers.
Where could the US Government have ever gotten the idea for the terrorist attacks of 9/11

The four planes were hijacked by members of Al-Qaeda. Al-Qaeda was “a loose collection of militant Islamic groups led by Osama bin Laden.” (Langly). All men, women, and children in the planes died.
“One cannot understand the scale of the son's ambition without appreciating his father's accomplishment.(71)” These words from The Looming Tower by Lawrence Wright conveys how Osama Bin Laden, the mastermind behind the horrible events of 9/11, was greatly influenced by his father. His father Mohammed bin Awad bin Laden was a very strict parent and raised his children under a rigid religious and moral code.This had an everlasting impact on Osama Bin Laden’s idealistic views as a Muslim and caused him to dislike anyone who disagreed with him. This came at the expense of Americans on September 11th, 2001, when terrorists led by Osama bin Laden drove two
On September 11th 2001 four planes were hijacked. These attacks were performed by Islamic terrorist. Many believe that the Muslims performed these acts due to their extreme beliefs in Islam.

Americans today, look back, and are saddened, but little do they know, how much change their psyche has gone through. The United States paid a large toll after this horrific event, but got through it with time.

One of them is ordering for the capturing and killing of Osama bin Laden, who was an infamous terrorist and extremist who planned the most devastating attack on the United States to date.

Finally, we should ask ourselves this question, who is behind the events of September 11? who is the real mastermind for the fateful day? How terrorists attacked the United States of America in the world with such ease? We must take in account that the United States of America is the most powerful in all the world and It has ‘Star Wars’ missile defense system. Is this an act of terrorism or is it fabricated

The FBI then traced down the hijackers to discover and confirm that they had been living in the United States for several months leading up to the attacks on September 11, 2001. The luggage of the discovered hijacker’s leader, Mohammed Atta, was never loaded on Flight 11 and contained specific handwritten instructions that told him and his men to be well dressed for the mission and to recite religious verses from the Koran to bring courage as they completed the mission. If they followed these instructions, they would receive heavenly rewards afterwards. The evidence discovered by the FBI supports that Al-Qaeda was targeting the United States and was behind the attacks as they prepared for months. Al-Qaeda strived to make not only the United States suffer, but the nation as a whole.
A high ranking terrorist putting in motion an attack in New York City on the anniversary of 9/11 would raise some alarms and the emotions of the American people. Therefore, Ayman al-Zawahiri proposed this very attack by ordering three individuals to prepare car bombs and enter the United States through Canada to set the bombs off on the anniversary of 9/11 in New York City.
