It has been 6 years since terrorists brought down the World Trade Centre. I still remembered that day, I was with my uncle at Cherating beach. Then out of sudden, my aunt, whose friend was working inside RTM, got the breaking news and told her about it. I was 11 years old then, when I heard twin towers, I thought it was our Petronas Twin Towers, then my uncle said it was the one in United States. Then we heard that one tower was down, and later, we found out both the tower went down. We waited till midnight, and then I saw the video, I was extremely sad over it, seeing people trapped inside the building and finally decided to end their suffering by jumping down. The temperature at the roof of the tower was around 300 degrees Celcius. The rescue helicopters could only watch helplessly.
Days later, my mother told me that people at Afganistan were cheering and laughing. Then I watched a video on news, someone was making a speech in Arabic, someone who claimed responsibility for the attack, he is Osama Bin Laden. And from that moment, I knew that the United States is going to send their stealth bombers to Afganistan. And surely it did happen.
I also found out that out of the 4 planes hijacked, 2 crashed it into the World Trade Centre, one crashed into Pentagon but the last one crashed on Pennsylvania - it was the flight that fought back. I salute all the passengers and crews of that flight who had sacrificed to prevent the nation from any further damage.
Here is a video, short tribute to victims and family members of the victims of September 11 tragedy. 8.46a.m. US time, on the 11th of September will forever be in our memories.
