If I told my child self that on September 11, 2011 four passenger airliners would be hijacked by 19 al-Qaeda terrorists so they could be flown into buildings in suicide attacks, two of them colliding into the North and South towers, respectively, of the World Trade Center complex in New York City, killing almost 3,000 people, including the 227 civilians and 19 hijackers aboard the four planes, my child self would be like WTF?
