Answer:
On September 11, 2001, radical Islamic terrorists hijacked and crashed four passenger jets in New York, Washington, DC, and Pennsylvania. In all, 2,976 people, mostly civilians, lost their lives on that day. In the days following the attacks, US and British intelligence confirmed that Al-Qaeda, led by Osama bin Laden, had planned and carried out the attacks. On September 20, President George W. Bush addressed Americans-many of whom had never heard of Al-Qaeda-in a televised speech before a joint session of Congress. Bush contrasted the September 11 attacks on civilian targets with December 7, 1941 when the Japanese bombed the naval base at Pearl Harbor. He explained that while Al-Qaeda was linked to more than sixty countries, its base was Afghanistan. He condemned the Taliban regime which controlled Afghanistan, and announced the beginning of a War on Terror.

Independence Day 2021: Indian-Americans begin early celebrations, New York to unfurl largest flag ever
On the occasion several hundred Independence Day celebrations will be held across the country, many of which will be attended by Congressmen and state governors
Washington: Thousands of Indian-Americans have begun early celebrations to mark the 75th anniversary of India’s Independence and a milestone in the country’s history.
From iconic Times Square in New York, where the Federation of Indian Associations (FIA) would unfurl the largest ever flag in the Big Apple on Sunday to the US Capitol here and mansions of several governors across the country, India’s 75th Independence Day is being celebrated in a big way.
“This is a historic moment for all of 1.4 billion people in India and 4.5 million Indian-Americans. To celebrate the occasion, we are unfurling the largest flag on Times Square,” Ankur Vaidya, FIA president told PTI.
It’s a 60 square feet flag over a 25 feet high pole, he added.
Several buildings in the US, including the Empire Estate, are being lightened with Indian tri-colour over the weekend, while another group of Indian-Americans are celebrating the 75th Independence Day over a ferry on the Hudson River.
“India in these 75 years has emerged as a mature democracy and a pillar of global peace. This year is special for all of us. The United States has a vice president who is of Indian origin,” said Alok Kumar, an IT entrepreneur from New Jersey.
