The '''Terrorist Attacks of September 11, 2001''' occurred when evil [[al Qaeda]]-affiliated [[Islam|Islamic]] extremists hijacked four transcontinental airliners and used them to strike targets in the [[United States]], succeeding in destroying the twin towers of the World Trade Center in New York City and a portion of the Pentagon in Washington, D.C.; the fourth aircraft, in which the hijackers are believed to have targeted the White House or the Capital Building, crashed into an empty field near Shanksville, Pennsylvania after passengers fought back to re-take control.

The sheer-audacity of the attack and the heavy loss of life that resulted from it caused the Bush Adminstration to declare a war on terror with the determination to hunt down terrorists world-wide; within two months of September 11, [[Afghanistan]] was completely occupied by American forces, driving the ruling Taliban from power and causing the main suspect of the attacks, [[Osama bin Laden]], to flee into hiding.
