9-11 Commission
Report
Questions 12-19: At 8:46 on the morning of September 11, 2001, the
United States became a nation transformed. An airliner traveling at hundreds of miles per hour
and carrying some 10,000 gallons of jet fuel plowed into the North Tower of the World Trade Center in
Lower Manhattan. At 9:03, a second airliner hit the South Tower. Fire and smoke billowed
upward.Steel,glass,ash,and bodies fell below. The Twin Towers, where up to 50,000 people worked each
day, both collapsed less than 90 minutes later. At 9:37 that same morning, a third airliner
slammed into the western face of the Pentagon. At 10:03, a fourth airliner crashed in a field in
southern Pennsylvania. It had been aimed at the United States Capitol or the White House, and was
forced down by heroic passengers armed with the knowledge that America was under attack. More
than 2,600 people died at the World Trade Center; 125 died at the Pentagon; 256 died on the four
planes. The death toll surpassed that at Pearl Harbor in December 1941. This immeasurable pain
was inflicted by 19 young Arabs acting at the behest of Islamist extremists headquartered in distant
Afghanistan. Some had been in the United States for more than a year, mixing with the rest of the
population. Though four had training as pilots, most were not well-educated. Most spoke English
poorly, some hardly at all. In groups of four or five, carrying with them only small knives, box
cutters, and cans of Mace or pepper spray, they had hijacked the four planes and turned them into
deadly guided missiles.
