George Bush: 9/11 By: Salimah McCullough
The historical event • The event that took place during this time was when the world trade center and pentagon got attacked, also know as 9/11 • The countries that were involved in this event was Afghanistan.
The crisis • The crisis is that the world trade center and pentagon were destroyed by hijacked airplanes • The people who were involved in this crisis were members of the Afghanistan group called the al-queda(a terrorist organization) founded by Osama bin laden • This event took place on September 11, 2001 • This event is causing conflict because after Afghanistan attacked the USA, we went over to Afghanistan and started a war there.
TheOptions • When the world trade center was being attacked, Bush could have left the school early instead of staying for the photo shoot , many people believe this was the best option. • President Bush could have delegated staff to defend America by shooting down last plane • President bush could have tried to calm the nation.
The Decision • The president decided to stay at the school for at least ten minutes before leaving to deal with the crisis. No one knows why he stayed this long because he has never been asked.
The Result • The crisis was over before bush had a response. The president rating went down because no one was happy. I think that the public felt that this was a bad decision and blame him for the cause of 9/11. Therefore if president bush had to do it over he would have responded immediately.
Hindsight • I think that the presidents decision impacted the world because the security is higher now especially at airplanes and airports because they have to check for bombs. • People all over the world judged his decision as the wrong one. I think that the right decision was to leave the school immediately and help America. • The option that I would have chose was o leave the school early.
