Answer:

The correct answer is B. The significance of the plane selections made by the terrorists on September 11 was that all four planes were traveling long distances, so they would have significant fuel on board to burn in the crashes.

Explanation:

The attacks were committed by 19 members of Al Qaeda, divided into four groups of kidnappers, each with a terrorist pilot who would be responsible for piloting the plane once the crew of the cabin was reduced. American Airlines Flight 11 and United Airlines Flight 175, which were supposed to go from Boston to Los Angeles, were the first to be hijacked, and both were crashed into the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center, the first against the North Tower and the second shortly thereafter against the South, causing that both skyscrapers collapsed in the next two hours.

The third hijacked plane belonged to American Airlines flight 77, that was covering the route from Washington DC to Los Angeles, and was used to be hit against the west side of the Pentagon in Virginia. The fourth plane, belonging to flight 93 of United Airlines, that was supposed to go from New Jersey to San Francisco, did not achieve any objective having crashed in the open field, near Shanksville, Pennsylvania, after losing control in the cabin as a result of the confrontation of passengers and crew against the terrorist command. It aimed at the United States Capitol, located in the city of Washington D.C.

This international offensive was launched by the Bush Administration following the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, in New York and Washington DC, carried out by Al Qaeda, becoming a central part of the foreign and domestic policy of that administration around the countries integrated into the so-called axis of evil.
