The most troublesome aspect of the September 11 attack was recording by phone of some victims.
People with atrocities struggling to cope with the seriousness, make emergency calls to 911 dispatchers and their families
Some people came from the four hijacked airplanes that collided with the World Trade Center, Pentagon and Pennsylvania oil fields.
In addition to providing a painful document on human impacts by attacks, these phones were used as proof of the 9/11 plotter Zacarias Moussaoui trial.
Businessman Melissa Doi (32 years old) works at the 83rd floor of the south tower of the World Trade Center.
After United Airlines flight 175 struck the tower, she and the other five were locked in the office. Her phone records a conversation with the Dispatcher at the New York Police Station.

Kevin Cosgrove, a 46-year-old insurance executive, is also trapped in the South Tower and is talking to an emergency dispatcher
He said later: "My wife thinks I am fine I say I am about to leave the building, I am fine, then I hit - [affected aircraft]
Betty Ong is a cabin attendant at US Airways Flight 11 and is flying to the North Tower at the World Trade Center.

Attacking the Twin Towers at World Trade Center in New York and the Pentagon in Washington, DC on 11th September 2001 may be the most impressive scene of the media in history. The horror scene of September 11 is a global media event. At the World Trade Center in New York's financial district, which attacks the iconic power of America and the symbol of the American military power of the Pentagon, the spectacle of fear takes over the world's media in a few days, It became a major event. The village of the world is a place of fear, death and destruction. attack
Following the September 11 attacks on the World Trade Center and the Department of Defense, Americans are seeking a new war and fight against terrorism. Many people around the world are tired of terrorist attacks. People from Northern Ireland and the Middle East are on this list. The same is true for people in Europe, Asia, and the United States. If the United States and its allies finally wage war with terrorists, it will preserve their way of life. If terrorists can attack anytime, anywhere, people will continue to live with fear attacks. This is true for Northern Ireland, Israel, the territory of Palestine, and other countries. Many of them are already fighting against terrorists. They certainly know the fear of terrorism and war.
After the terrorists attacked the World Trade Center it was not unusual to hear that the attack "changed everything". "Everything" is of course exaggerated, but on 9/11, terrorist attacks are sometimes called, so change many things, including relationships with religion. More than 3,000 people were murdered due to the attack, the economic life of the country caused serious dislocation due to religious activities. This is not what the mainstream sociologists of the 20th century pursued, but traced the footprints of Karl Marx, Max Weber and Emile Durchem. Religion slowly disappears and is not quietly in the minds of worshipers, but plays an important role in the domestic and overseas plays. It is premature to say a permanent resurrection of this religion
