History of the attack The terrorists hijacked the US Flights and they at first aimed at the 110 floor Twin Towers at New York City. The biggest towers of the world were waking up for the busy business deals and at 8.46 A.M. the hijacked American flight 11 crashed into the north tower of the Trade Center. At 9.03 A. M. United Flight 175 crashed against the South Tower. Very soon the place became quite similar to that of battlefield. Many tried to escape by jumping from the Towers. Panic stroked everywhere. All feared about the doom of the nation. At about 9.40 the hijacked American Flight 77 crashed into Pentagon. It partially destroyed the core military area of the US. The fourth attack was with the United Flight 93 which was crashed in Shanksville near Pennsylvania before it could reach Washington. All these attacks caused the death of 3000 and injuring many more. It was unbelievable for the world. The Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat thus spoke, “We are completely shocked, completely shocked. Unbelievable” (Fox news, 2001). The Intelligence Failure The attack has paved the way for various discussions overtime and majority of these discussions have been identified as accusing the American Intelligence for its failure. The attack has had deep-rooted impact among the Americans that they took considerable amount of time to recover from its devastating effects. The peaceful eyes of the Americans were filled the shadow of death soon after the attacks. The people of America turned against their intelligence agencies. As Richard L. Russell puts, “The intelligence failure of 9/11 was arguably the greatest debacle in the history of U. S. intelligence” (Russell, 2007, p.71). The writer says that the CIA had anticipated that al-Qaeda may have their attacks on US assets on abroad. not in their own land. There was a notion for both agencies (CIA and FBI) that Al-Qaeda would not dare to fight directly against America. The writer further accuses the CIA as they “failed to have access to human intelligence assets who could have penetrated the Al-Qaeda conspiracy to allow for U.S. disruption of the plot” (Russell, 2007, p.72). Both CIA and FBI are equally responsible for the failure of intelligence in the attacks of Al-Qaeda. The wide notion of ‘unconquerable America’ had made both these agencies to neglect all the warnings against Al-Qaeda in America.
