On September 11, 2001, everything changed for the US. 19 men who hijacked airplanes to carry out the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon were Arabs from Muslim countries. The terrorists belonged to a group referred to as al-Qaeda. Two of the planes were flown into the towers of the World Trade Center in New York City, a third plane hit the Pentagon just outside Washington, D.C., and the fourth plane crashed in a field in Pennsylvania after onboard passengers attempted to take down the terrorists.
