... something final happened on the clear sky of the Occident. Something important and, maybe, not very clear, but perceived by the global community as a fact meant to mark an irrevocable moment, the start of an epoch-making change. For all of us, the image of the to Boeings crashing the Tin Toers as enough to understand that the Apocalypse, as it as imagined, could finally erupt on the face of the Earth.But, beyond this tragedy and the horror of loosing thousands of lives, there is hiding something else the final combat, dies irae, The Judgement Day, beteen to global systems hich, for a long time only atched each other from distance till they came to this final and direct confrontation. This is not about the Christian orld on one side and the Islamic orld on the other side, here is about the orld of richness, individualism, progress, and efficiency on a side and The orld of poverty, misery and blind faith on the other side. These to different orlds had to meet, finally to confront themselves and destroy each other as sandcastles. It is important to see that they are based on different conceptions concerning life in the previous century it seemed that the estern orld broke any connections ith the spirit and its purposes ere only materialIn the so-called the third orld, the man is still in contact ith his spiritual roots and traditions, and in the confrontation ith the Occident, it seems that this orld is losing itself in the tornado of despair No, lets start describing ho everything took placePremises A eek before September 11th 2001, Egyptian information services sends a message saying to CIA that Bin Laden might have planned a terrorist attack on American territory. This message as not considered very important by the American authorities758 a.m. United Airlines Flight 175 leaves Boston for Los Angeles carrying 56 passengers, to pilots and 7 flight attendants759 a.m. American Airlines Flight 11 departs from Boston for Los Angeles, carrying 81 passengers, 2 pilots and 9 flight attendants. This Boeing 767 is also hijacked and diverted to Ne York 801 a.m. United Airlines Flight 93,a Boeing 757 carrying 38 passengers, 2 pilots and 5 flight attendants, leaves Nemark, Ne Jersey for San Francisco810 a.m. American Airlines Flight 77 departs ashingtons Dulles International Airport for Los Angeles, carrying 58 passengers, 2 pilots and 4 flight attendants. The Boeing 757 is hijacked after take off Ne York - time 846 a.m.- hell is unleashed. The second hijacked plane, American Airlines Flight 11,ith all the peoples on board, crashes violently into the north toer of orld Trade Center. The eyeitnesses have a great shock and despair becomes general. People caught at the superior floors understand that these are the last moments of their life. The help asked in despair doesnt come hite clothes are aved, screams are heard, objects thron but vainly, for them there is nothing to be done. Really desperate, some of them thro themselves out of the indo, the impact being fatal. These people accepted their fate and decided to finish faster ith this torture. Others died aiting for somethingsomething that as only an illusionthe illusion of a second chance. But God takes care of His people and some of them, managed to find some stairs that ere not badly damaged by the impact. e can say, ithout any doubt that these people ere born for the second timeThe nightmare images seemed not to have happened in reality, but in a movie very ell directed. And this is just the beginning because after a fe minutes the second hijacked plane reached its target the south toer of the orld Trade Center. At 903 a.m., at only 17 minutes from the first attack, the first hijacked plane, United Airlines Flight 175 ith all the people on board, crashes into the south toer of orld Trade Center, in front of the terrified eye-itnesses and TV cameras. In the first place, people thought that this as the tank ater plane meant to stop the fire in the building. But it didnt resemble at all a tank ater plane, rather a big flying grave. No, the Tin Toers became to huge torches covering a great part of Ne Yorks sky ith their infernal smoke. The TV cameras and civilians took pictures of a landscape that they surely ouldnt see again. U.S Federal Aviation Administration shut don all Ne York area airports. At 921,all bridges and tunnels leading into Ne York are closed.At 943 a.m., at 40 minutes from the second attack and an hour later from the first, the last hijacked plane, American Airlines Flight 77 ith people on board, crashes over a section of the Pentagon. The hite House is on alert. At 1005 - the ne president, George . Bush ith the entire hite House staff are immediately evacuated and put in the presidential airplane, Air Force One, here he is safer than staying on ground. All flights, commercial, tourist, passenger, are cancelled and the USs sky is supervised by airplanes ith the order of knocking don any kind of flying object. Everything takes place as a chain reaction, but this chain has unimaginable consequences that ill change the course of history. At 1005,at only one hour from the attack, the south toer falls ith big noise. The south toer is the last crashed and the first falling don. After five minutes, at 1010,the third hijacked airplane, United Airlines Flight 93,crashes in a ooded area in Pennsylvania, Somerset Country, the only victims being the passengers and the hijackers. It seems that the passengers fought and preferred to sacrifice their life instead of fulfilling the diabolical plan. The destination of this plane is unknon. Hundreds of firemen, police officers and military units are brought to pull out the survivors from the demolished south toer and from the north toer that hasnt collapsed yet. Half-hour later after the attack, all the all Street stock exchange is in shock. The American is loosing important percentages, its value being 30 smaller. The orld economy is very close to an abyss.President George . Bush called these events acts of ar and he transmitted to the Army and secret services to find those responsible and bring them to justice. He asked the US Congress to vote 20 billion for reconstruction, reorganization and the affected by the tragedy. At short time after the south toer crashed, at 1028 the north toer crashed too. The falling of these giants as symbolic for the falling of America and not onlythese giants seemed invincible and untouchable but they ere crushed like some flies. A perfect system has proved to be very imperfect. The heart of America as deeply bleeding and it is not knon if this ound is ever going to heal or at least to become a big scar. Besides the Tin Toers, because of the shock and dust, another 7 buildings collapsed and many more ere very badly damaged. The material losses ere estimated to billions of , the human losses-around 2000.Photos taken from satellites hurried to sho the face of the devil appearing in the ave of smoke coincidence or...
