United 93


5 days ago I saw a very good movie related to my topic called United 93. This movie is about the 4rth airplane kidnapped in September 11, 2001. Here is my summary of the movie.
One regular morning 4 terrorists went to an airport in New Jersey with to head San Francisco. The terrorists went trough all the police and the other airport officials without difficulties and went inside the airplaine with destination San Francisco.

All of the hijackers were sat on first class and were very nervous and because of that the terrorist acted in a very strange way. The flight was going to last about 5 hours and by the time that the passengers were eating the lunch the hijackers took control of the air plains with knifes. They killed a first class passenger and made a flight attended open the door of the pilots when the pilots opened the door of the cabin the hijackers appeared and killed both the pilot and the sub-pilot. 2 of the hijackers were pilots so they were the ones who drove the plane. All of the hijackers were praying all the time because the kidnapping of the airplane was because of religion. When there was 20 minutes left for the airplane to hit their target the White House. The passengers decided to retake control of the airplane because somewhat they were going to die.

Before they retake control everyone talked with the persons they loved and after that they took anything in which they could kill the hijackers and went to battle them they started killing the 2 hijackers that were outside the cabin. When they killed the 2 hijackers they took a wheel car in which they carried the food and start hitting the cabin door. When the door finally gave up and broke. The passengers got inside the pilot cabin and start fighting with the 2 hijackers that were left. Finally the airplane crashed into and open field near Washington D.C and nobody that was inside the airplane survived.
This is the page were made my research of what really happened on one of the hijacked airplanes of September/11/06 . Here is the first paragraph from this page:

"United Airlines Flight 93 was a regular flight from Newark International Airport (now known as Newark Liberty International Airport) in Newark, New Jersey, to San Francisco International Airport, then continuing on to Narita International Airport in Tokyo, Japan, on a different aircraft. On September 11, 2001, the United Airlines Boeing 757-222, registered N591UA, was one of four planes hijacked as part of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. It was the only one of the four planes that did not reach its intended target, instead crashing in an empty field just outside Shanksville, Pennsylvania, about 150 miles (240 km) northwest of Washington, D.C. The 9/11 Commission (through testimony, tapes of passengers' phone calls, and the flight data recorders recovered from the crash) determined that crew and passengers, alerted through phone calls to loved ones, had attempted to overtake the hijackers. The Commission concluded that the hijackers crashed the plane to keep the crew and passengers from gaining control. The Commission's official report states that passengers and crew members fought back against the hijackers."

As you can read this is the introduction of the web-page for the 4rth kidnapped airplane. Now I am going to tell you the summary from the whole page.

The United Airlines flight 93 was a normal flight. It was a Boeing 757-222 with 37 persons inside the plain (counting the hijackers) going from New Jersey to San Francisco. But when they were at the middle of the Flight it was hijacked by four men from Al-qaeda named Ziad Jarrah (Lebanese), pilot; Ahmed al-Haznawi (Saudi Arabian), Ahmed al-Nami (Saudi Arabian), Saeed al-Ghamdi (Saudi Arabian). All of the terrorists were seated on first class and 2 of them with knife, as in the movie United 93.
After time passed the hijackers took controll of the airplane, and then the passangers realizing that they were going to dies they took a very good decision which was to retake control from the terrorists. But before every person made phone calls to their families and best friends in which thy talked about the hijackers and said that they loved them. When everyone finished making the phone calls the start to retake control of the airplane. They ended up killing two of the hijackers and crashing the airplane to an open field near Shanksville, Pennsylvania.

In conclusion comparing the movie United 93 from what really happened the movie had many true facts about the airplane, the hijackers, and the rebel of the passengers. If you have the opportunnity to see the movie United 93 see it I promise you wont be disapointed and you will understand better this post.

On my next post I will like to write about Sadam Husein. And this is the end of my post I hope you enjoy reading it!
