9/11 attack

“What was the event?” and “How do I know what happened?”

9/11:prior knowledgeI think that the event was that the leader of islamic terrorist organization Al-Qaeda, Osama bin Laden, ordered his men to highjack four planes. Two were crashed into the north and south twin towers, one crashed into the Pentagon (the HQ of the ministry of defence) and the last crashed in the middle of

Pennsylvania. The one that crashed in Pennsylvania didn’t harm anyone but probably was intended for

another target. I know this because I have seen many references to 9/11 in other media.

hiroshima: prior knowledge

The event was Hiroshima being bombed by the USA to end WWII and eradicate the last of the axis. Many people died and thousands more lost their lives from cancer and injuries from the heat

and radiation. I know this because I read about it in many books and my parents and friends talk to me

about it.
