9/11: Legacy of a World Changed | Global News

On September 11, 2001, the world was shattered by terrorist attacks that killed nearly 3,000 people and triggered a global reckoning. Hijacked planes struck the Twin Towers and the Pentagon, while passengers on a fourth plane heroically foiled its intended target. The aftermath reshaped geopolitics, launching wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, altering security protocols worldwide, and creating new agencies to protect against future threats. Survivors and first responders continue to bear physical and emotional scars, while the legal saga of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed—captured, tried, and now stalled in plea negotiations—underscores the enduring challenge of justice. Today, the rebuilt One World Trade Center stands as a testament to resilience, reminding us that 9/11 didn’t just change history—it changed everything.
