The <EM>September 11 Terrorist Attacks</EM> provides readers with a clear and comprehensive account of the Al-Qaeda terrorist attacks against the United States on September 11, 2001. The volume explains the origins and beliefs of the Al-Qaeda terror organization, recounts how the terrorist hijacking plot was carried out, highlights acts of American heroism throughout the ordeal, and details the various ways in which American citizens and their government responded to the shocking attacks on New York City and Washington, D.C. The book devotes special attention to controversies surrounding the Patriot Act, the 2003 invasion of Iraq, the war in Afghanistan, anti-Islamic sentiment in America, and other political and cultural responses to the tragic events of September 11.
