A few minutes later a jet liner is seen heading towards the other trade tower, unable to get a lock on the plane, 22-year old fighter pilot Alvin Franks, says into his radio: "Don't let me die for a hopeless cause" and crashes his plane into the cockpit of the oncoming jet liner, deflecting it and causing it to crash into an office building 15 blocks aways from the World Trade Center.

"9/11/01: President Gore Responds In the morning hours of September 11th, 2001 four airliners are hijacked by what are assumed to be Arab terrorists. Two of the planes are deliberately crashed into the World Trade Center (WTC) towers in New York City. One of the planes is crashed into the Pentagon and the fourth plane mysteriously crashes into a field in Pennsylvania. President Al Gore, on a tour of San Jose, California schools is meeting with high school students when the first plane hits the WTC. In what will be considered a tremendous error of leadership, Gore's aides decline to interrupt the President during his chat with the students. Eighteen minutes later the second plane hits the second of the WTC towers and in a scene that will be forever remembered by those who saw it on TV, Secret Service agents with their machine guns drawn literally pick up and carry the President out of the room. The President is hustled aboard Air Force One at Moffett Field and witnesses describe the huge 747 as flying "almost straight up at full power". Air Force One is immediately joined by fighters from Travis AFB and Beale AFB and the small airfleet turns east and heads over the Sierra. Concurrent with the takeoff of Air Force One from Moffett Field, the FAA orders all civilian aircraft immediately grounded and all incoming international flights are diverted. Canada accepts the bulk of the diverted flights. Later in the day with the skies over the USA devoid of all but military aircraft the President's plane leaves Offutt AFB for Washington, D.C. There had been discussion of having the President going to Cheyenne Mountain, but he would have nothing to do with that suggestion. "The President of the United States will not run from trouble today." he says in a quote that comes back to haunt him in later years. When he lands in Washington, the city is in a state of almost-martial law with police officers and regular Army soldiers on almost every street corner. Humvees with anti-aircraft missiles are visible and parked on the National Mall. At 7pm President Al Gore addresses the nation on live television.

TITLE: BATTLE OF BRANDYWINE General Washington orders two brigades to march north and determine whether conflicting reports of British movements north are in fact accurate. Colonel Bland’s messenger meets with Major General Alexander and Major General Stephen and informs them of what was witnessed. Scouts observe the British forces moving south on the east side of the river. A runner is sent back to the Ring House to inform Washington of their discovery. Washington orders the forces on the west side of the Brandywine to let the battle be “press’d to the utmost”. At Chadds Ferry, two regiments cross the creek and launch an assault into the British right. Knyphausen’s forces fall back, regroup and assault the Continental position again and again. After taking numerous losses, he institutes a holding action waiting for Cornwallis to assault the Continentals in the rear. Stephen orders his forces to anchor their right on the Birmingham Meeting House, his left anchored to Alexander’s right, Alexander’s left anchored at the ford with Colonel Bland’s units. He orders de Borre to take the far right position. In private, his aide hears him say: “If that damned French fop fouls this up, I’ll have his damned head.” At 2 pm, General Stephen observes the British columns halting on Osborne Hill. He mistakes this for creating a defensive position and orders his forces forward. The first units encountered were Hessian Grenadiers. After a brief fight the grenadiers flee back to the main British force. The American forces assault the British column who are busy having tea. Although caught partially unawares, the British put up stiff resistance as they get their columns organized. Stephen sends word back to Washington “If we are to win the day, I need reinforcements.” Washington orders Sullivan to move his men forward and connect with Stephen’s columns. At Chadds Ford, General Greene orders a charge into the center of the British line. By 5pm, the British line falters then breaks. General Knyphausen attempts to rally his troops but falls dead on the field of battle. As the British and Hessian forces rout, General Greene orders his men to halt. He sends a regiment back to the ford to support the battle to the north and orders his men to take defensive positions. Sullivan’s column forms up behind that of du Borre in a reserve position. As British regulars assault the American right, du Borre orders his men to withdraw. Sullivan orders his men to form up and repulse the attack. Although the American right was bent far back, Sullivan was able to hold his position and stave off a total collapse of the right wing of the Continental position. The American left began to falter until Bland’s forces on the west side of the river charged into the British right. Although they took high casualties, the British assault was broken. By midnight, the British left the field and retreated to Sconneltown. American forces construct defensive positions and Washington works on his next move.

Between 6:30 and 8:00 AM, nineteen men, all citizens of Middle Eastern nations, fifteen from Saudi Arabia, are arrested at Newark International Airport in New Jersey and Logan International Airport in Boston. They had been trying to smuggle weapons onto commercial airliners. President McCain is informed of this while reading to schoolchildren in Florida, and returns to the White House to look over the reports. At around 5:30 PM, a Port Authority Trans-Hudson (PATH) train derails at the terminal underneath the World Trade Center in New York. One passenger, who had a rough day at work, remarks, "Damn! Everything else has gone wrong today, now this! This is the worst day of my life! What else could go wrong?" He doesn't know what really could have gone wrong, because the nineteen arrestees aren't talking, aren't telling them what they meant to do on those planes, and McCain has decided that there's no reason to alarm the American people by telling them about the arrests. They remain the top stories on the New York and Boston local newscasts, but generate little interest elsewhere.

President Stern's former radio rival Don Imus flies his small plane onto the White House grounds in an attempt to assassinate him. In typical Imus fashion, he not only misses the building, but is unaware that Stern is in Florida, trying to establish "pre-orientation week break" as an end-of-summer counterpoint to spring break for college students. Imus does, however, succeed in confusing pilots both at his takeoff in New York and at his landing in Washington, forcing the hijackers to scratch their plans to attack America. In life, a bozo; in death, Don Imus is a hero. Meanwhile, the economy has lost a million jobs since Stern took office.

Five Islamic terrorists hijack an airliner and crash it into the Pentagon, killing 190 people and destroying a portion of the building. Heightened airline security in place as a result of a terrorism warning received three days earlier failed to stop this hijacking, although it is believed that three other attempts may have been foiled. A check of passenger rosters for other flights that day showed that 3 planes took off with a total of 14 empty seats that had been paid for by men with middle eastern sounding names. While nobody was caught by the increased security, other hijackers may have been scared off by it

The worst terrorist attack the world has ever seen: As a sick and ironic tribute to 9/11, devoted followers of the Taliban decide to re-enact the fateful event of that day, but on an extremely upscale level. As a result of the dramatic boost in security in the us, the workers go on strike because of inconvenient work hours, giving terrorists a wide open window. 22 planes are hijacked. br> The first attack of the day happens at the exact same time of 9/11. 2 planes collide with the newly - erected WTC but only 12 people die due to the new and improved- terrorist proof building structure.
Shortly afterwards, a plane tries to collide with the pentagon, but is shot down. As it hits the street below, 4 people die.
simultaneously, 4 more planes are heading towards Manhattan, and one towards Brooklyn. One of the planes collides with the Chrysler building, another hits the New Yorker hotel, the third rams into the WTC again, trying to send it to the same fate as the first one. At this time, the plane that headed to Brooklyn, which contained some explosives, flew straingt into the Brooklyn Bridge. It was immediatley destroyed. The final, and biggest plane, dive-bombed into the bottom of the Empire State Building. Th explosion makes it teeter dangerously towards nearby apartment buildings.
2 more planes are heading towards San Fransisco. One attemtps to fly into the Golden Gate bridge, but misses, it plunges in the water and explodes. The other plane however has better luck. It slams into the main suspension wires and cripples the bridge.
In Chicago, the Sears tower is hit in the same way as the Empire State building, and tumbles, crushing several businesses, and a hospital.
An hour later, the Empire State building finally falls but due to more safety training, only 7 people die. Millions of dollars worth of homes and businesses are wiped out.
The UK is the next target. Th first place to be hit is Scotland. Edinbouragh castle is dismantled. The next victim is Northern Ireland. Belfast's famous docklands are hit. The H&W cranes, which built the Titanic, fall into the depths of the North sea. Next to be hit is Big Ben. The famous clocktower falls into the Thames.
It is now 2:00pm
Buckingham palace is almost hit. but the plane is shot down. 3 people die when it crashes into Trafalgar square.
New York is targeted once more. 4 more suspension bridges crumble, and Lady Liberty's face gets blown up as a small private plane hits it.
The final, and biggest planes so far, plummet into the WTC once again in a desperate bid to destroy them. It works.

The United States has been under a state of Martial Law since the November 7, 2001 attacks. News is tightly controlled, and those actually responsible for the terrorist attacks, now undeniable to policymakers in the U.S. government, is classied. This is true partially because of the "pending" criminal case against those responsible, and partially because their are few real options against them.
Iraq, Pakistan, North Korea, Syria, and Libya have formed a new "Axis" and have begun to plan the coordiated attacks against their common enemies. Terrorist attacks in London, Paris, Berlin, Rome, and Tokyo are commonplace. U.S. Citizens have been ordered home, and the U.S. military forces around the globe have been withdrawn to help with "disaster relief." The U.S. Naval base at Pearl Harbor, bloked for monthes because of the sinking of the U.S.S. Kennedy in the East Lock, is finally reopened, but it will take more time to replace the oil tank farms that caught fire and was destroyed in the aftermath.
President Holbrooke is confirmed as the 44th President of the United States after President Gore resigns his office, a shattered man. Holbrooke names General Welsey K. Clark, USA, as his Vice President, partly to reassure the nation, and partly to placate the Military, angry over the complete break down in the national security situations.

Islamic Fundamentalists commandeer 4 airliners over the U.S. The first one strikes one of the World Trade Center twin towers in New York, causing it to collapse upon itself, and causing moderate damage to the second tower. Another plane soon thereafter, hits the Statue of Liberty, taking down the monument in a ball of flame.
A third plane was tracked from around Somerset County, Pennsylvania, hit the White House, killing President Albert Gore. The terrorists were heard on the plane's radio, as they said, "Praise Allah, let's roll!". The White House was completely obliterated. First Lady Tipper Gore was reading to school children in a Florida classroom when she was informed of the attack that killed her husband.
The brave passengers of the fourth plane, apparently headed toward the Pentagon, seized control from the terrorists. One passenger, an airline pilot traveling on personal business, successfully landed the aircraft at Reagan National Airport in suburban Virginia. The subdued terrorists were taken into custody by Secret Service agents at the airport and transported to an undisclosed location.
Newly sworn-in President Joseph Lieberman vowed America would seek out the planners of the attacks and use the full might of the nation to exact justice. He also proposed the USA PATRIOT Act, a piece of legislation requiring the government to not overreact, but rather to respect the rights of all Americans during investigations into possible future terrorist acts. The President said, "These heinous acts will not be used as a excuse to take away our Constitutional guarantees of liberty. To do so would be to give the terrorists what they want." Lieberman also ordered flags to be flown at half-mast in memory of President Gore and the other Americans who died in the worst terrorist attacks on U.S. soil since Iraqi President Saddam Hussein ordered the bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City.

Ayman Al-Zawahiri becomes the official figurehead of Al Qaeda on the anniversary of September 11th in 2004. Thanks to a raised security level due to the anniversary, no symbolic attacks take place in Europe or North America, but there are a string of suicide bombings in Baghdad. No american service personal are killed in the bombings; the overwhelming majority of the victims are Iraqi civilians. Sunni and Shia communities blame each other for the bombings and the country hangs on the edge of a civil war. The removal of Saddam Hussein leaves a power vacuum in Iraq which is filled by fundamentalist muslim militias styling themselves after the regime in Iran and the US finds itself under increasing pressure to provide more aid and troops as the UN has effectively been crippled because of the sanctions placed on France. Following Chiraq's resignation, the French public vote the right-wing UMP back into office, with Nikolas Sarkozy as President, on a strongly anti-US platform. Sarkozy objects to sanctions being placed on France because of the actions of a private French company (despite questions from the US as to how exactly this company was able to obtain nuclear materials without government support). France vetoes every single UN resolution placed before the security council, effectively paralysing the United Nations, and vowes to continue doing so until sanctions are lifted. Franco-American relations sour to such a point that French shops are burnt in the US and two American tourists are beaten to death by a group of youths in France. Kofi Anan warns that unless the security council can resolve its differences, the United Nations will be forced to dissolve. Osama bin Laden has now become a martyr, Al Qaeda and associated groups exploit his image relentlessly.

While reading to first-grade children at a school in Sarasota, Florida, President Dan Quayle is told by White House Chief of Staff Mary Matalin, "A second plane has hit the other tower of the World Trade Center. It's an act of war." Quayle takes this in for a few seconds, collects his composure, and tells the students, "Kids, I've to go. I can't tell you why, but you'll find out very soon." When he gets back to Air Force One, Quayle orders fighter jets to patrol the skies over New York and Washington. One hijacked plane is shot down over Chesapeake Bay. Another is forced down by passengers confronting the hijackers, crashing in western Pennsylvania. It appears that both had been intended for targets in the Washington area. From his office at the Pentagon, Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld tells Quayle that Saddam Hussein must be involved. "Damn it, Don, now is not the time for your Iraq obsession!"

Around this time, this fish makes it's final transformations in their evolution. At the end, they stand at 5 feet, look much like humans, but with differences--Their tails are extensions of the tail-bone, going down to their ankles. Their scales are a silvery blue, and they have blue eyes and hair.
On September 11, 2,564,757 bc, a group of these fish venture onto the surface, and witness the emergence of human civilization--the art of making fire. The amphibious fishes imitate this art successfully--but only after 2 failed attempts, the first resulting in a few fatalities.

With most of the old Western-Roman Empire reunited under the new Roman Republic, Rome seizes the chance to reconquer Britain. With the Germanic tribes severely weakened from centuries of warfare with each other and the Byzantines proccupied with the immense danger of the Arab-Muslims and Persians, the republic is free to pursue its goal without any interferences. The Anglo-Saxons fiercely resist, however, thousands of Romano-Briton partisans join the forces of the republic. Thus, with the Anglo-Saxons vastly outnumbered by the massive Roman army, the Romans reconquer all of Southern Britain up to Hadrian's Wall. Since the reconquest of Roman-Britain was easier than anticipated, the Romans press on for the rest of the island and as well as Ireland too. By AD 911, Scottland and Ireland are conquered and annexed to the Roman Republic.

Desperate to deflect criticism from his weak response to Hurricane Katrina, President Quayle appoints former Solicitor General Ted Olson to be the next Chief Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court, following the death a week ago of William Rehnquist. Judge John Roberts will remain appointed to the vacancy brought about by the retirement of Associate Justice Sandra Day O'Connor. Liberal groups cry foul over the selection of Olson, who was among the Republican legal experts leading the charge in the impeachment of then-President Bill Clinton. Since Olson's wife Barbara was among those killed on the hijacked airliners in the 9/11 attacks, he is also seen as a way for Quayle to continue to capitalize on the War On Terror, which has not been going well -- Osama bin Laden remains at large. The fact that the appointment is made on the anniversary of the attacks and Mrs. Olson's death -- and also Judge Olson's 65th birthday -- doesn't help from a public-relations standpoint.

After Pres. Gore encouraged the UN sanctions on Iraq to be dropped in 2003, with the heartfelt concurrance of France, Germany and Russia, the underground weapons programs Saddam Hussein played shell games with for 12 years got a significant infusion of money. Abandoning pursuit of nuclear weapons research as being visually impressive but too hard and expensive as far as 'bang for the buck' went, Saddam concentrates on biological weapons, particularly weaponized Anthrax and Smallpox. In memory of 9/11/2001, on Sep. 11th, 2006 in the Atlanta, Boston, Chicago, Dallas, Phoenix, LA and Denver airports Al Quaeda operatives with *very slightly* leaky briefcases arrived 12 to 14 hours early for their flights. Joining the crowds of people to check in, wander throughout the airports, get food and the like, their briefcases sifted out a very fine powder of anthrax and hemorrhagic smallpox bacteria. They spent particular attention on choke points such as outside doors to parking decks, food courts and shops, in-airport transportation systems like trains and shuttles, and areas around bathrooms and water fountains, and play areas for children when available. An estimated 1.7 million people were exposed to the mix of anthrax and smallpox. Saddam referred to them as his 'One-Two' strike against the US. With hemorrhagic smallpox having a 90+% fatality rate, and inhalational anthrax having a 75% fatality rate there were few survivors, and subsequent smallpox transmission from person to person killed 30 million within six months in the United States. However, in a bizzare twist of fate one of the Al Quaeda operatives paused for almost five minutes by a group of businessmen headed to Iraq to discuss cashing in oil vouchers that had been issued during the UN sanctions, infecting them with the mix. Thouroughly infected, they spread the spores throughout their travels, infecting hundreds. Passing through the Bagdad airport, they proceeded to spread the contagion to some members of Saddam's inner circle. Within two weeks, Saddam and his sons were dead.

On September 11, 2001, in a massive, coordinated terrorist attack, ten planes hijacked by members of the terrorist organization Al-Queda destroy targets in the USA. The attack, much larger that the originally proposed four-plane one, destroys government buildings, landmarks, and skyscrapers all around the country. Targets are damaged and destroyed in New York City - World Trade Center Towers, Empire State Building Washington, DC - White House, Capitol Building, Pentagon San Francisco - Golden Gate Bridge Saint Louis - Gateway Arch Chicago - Sears Tower Seattle - Space Needle The Trade Center Towers fall within hours. The first plane strikes the North Tower on the 44th floor at 8:10 AM. That tower burns for 28 minutes until it collpases vertically. A few minutes after the collapse, at 8:46 AM, another airliner smashes into the South Tower on the 56th floor. That tower burns for 16 minutes, until a massive gas explosion in the rubble of the North Tower rips though the smoking debris. The burning South Tower stays upright for a few seconds, then tips slowly toward the east. In film footage that would become famous, the South Tower, belching smoke, falls toward Wall Street. It annhilates the NYPD command center, 4 Trade Center, St. Paul's chapel, scores of small buildings, and sends rubble, smoke, dust, and debris through Liberty Street, Wall Street, and other thoroughfares. By 9:02 AM, two symbols of American wealth and strength are gone.

Dr. Jonas Salk continues his viral experiments on the patients at the concentration camp in Browntown, New Jersey. So many patients die in the experients, but one patient actually seems strengthened. His muscles are built up, and his reflexes improve, to the point where he tries to escape, but is then severely beaten by guards. Salk does not know the prisoner's name, only that he is kept in a certain cell in Block 5. Salk looks: The prisoner in Room A is dead, the prisoner in Room B is dying, the prisoner in Room C is dead, and so on... but the prisoner in Room K is actually getting stronger. Turns out that the man in Room K has an adrenal deficiency called Addison's disease. That night, Salk produces his weapon: One that acts on the adrenal glands, which, as it will turn out, not only kills the patient within days, but forces the production of enough adrenaline that he will be terrified as he dies. The question Salk asks is, "What are we going to do with the man in Room K?" The camp's commander, Colonel Robert Welch, says, "As soon as the weapon is perfected, we'll know we succeeded. Then we won't need him anymore. We'll kill him."

The inference is clear: In order to complete at a truly world-class level, Russian athletes will have to get out of the Soviet Union. The Olympic Games -- also recently held in Canada, in Montreal -- were state-sponsored professionals against amateurs, and even there, the Soviets and East Germans were not markedly better than the Americans, British and other free nations.

Preparing to read to a class of children at an elementary school in Sarasota, in his native Florida, President Bob Graham is told that an airplane has crashed into one of the towers of the World Trade Center in New York. Since he's been having discussions about possible terrorist hijackings of American airplanes, he believes this crash was no accident. He orders the scrambling of jets up and down the eastern seaboard. He goes into the classroom with orders to keep him posted. He is told that a second plane has hit the second tower. There is no question of an attack now. "Boys and girls," he tells the kids, "I'm sorry, but I've got to go. I can't tell you why, but you'll find out soon enough." The kids are confused, but not alarmed. As Air Force One is taking off, Graham is briefed: Several terrorists were detained at Newark Airport in New Jersey and Dulles Airport in Virginia, planning to hijack planes. They did not say what the intended targets were. But since Logan Airport in Boston did not meet the same standards as the others, some terrorists got through there. Graham is warned that Air Force Once could be a target, and should be diverted away from Washington. "This plane is landing at Andrews," Graham says of the Maryland Air Force base near the capital. "The American people are not going to see their President running around the country like he's afraid!" By the time he lands, Graham is told that both WTC towers have collapsed. It is not yet known how many have died, but the total will later be determined to be 2,749. Graham goes on television that night, and says, "The people who ordered these attacks will be identified, found, and punished."

A United Airlines Boeing 757 jetliner designated Flight 93, bound from Newark International Airport to Tokyo by way of San Francisco, is hijacked by several members of the terrorist group Al Qaeda and diverted toward Washington, D.C. Cell phone calls from the passengers to loved ones indicate that the terrorists plan to deliberately crash the plane into the White House or the Capitol.

The plane never reaches Washington. Instead, it crashes in an empty field just outside the town of Shanksville, Pennsylvania, 150 miles northwest of the U.S. capital. Investigators will later determine that the passengers and crew of the doomed plane had attempted to seize control of it from the terrorists, and that their captors had crashed the plane in Pennsylvania to prevent that from occurring.

The government will also learn, through interrogation of the Al Qaeda operatives arrested prior to the hijacking, that the seizure of Flight 93 was part of a much larger plan targeting not only the White House or Capitol but also the Pentagon and both towers of New York City’s World Trade Center. The other planned hijackings had been aborted when airport security was tightened in August; the decision to proceed with what became the Flight 93 hijacking had been made only at the last minute, when Qaeda operatives found a hole in Newark International’s newly tightened security screening.

President Gore, who had been visiting a school in Florida when news of the terrorist takeover and crash of Flight 93 reached him, cuts short his trip and returns immediately to Washington. FAA and FBI investigators are immediately dispatched to the crash site. Based on reports of what passengers had said via cell phone about the terrorists’ objective, the Secret Service details of both the President and the Vice-President are placed on heightened alert, as part of a general security alert in Washington. Suggestions that the nation’s two top elected officials go into hiding for their protection are, however, rejected. “I cannot lead this nation from some fortress hidden in some undisclosed location,” explains the President. “That’s not how we do things in America. And if the day comes when that’s how we have to do things, this country won’t be America anymore.”

In New York, Mayor Rudolph Giuliani is not yet aware that his city was being targeted by the same people who brought down Flight 93. However, business operations in the World Trade Center and throughout the five boroughs slow down as distracted workers listen for fresh news of the tragedy.
