American Government Goes Underground – European Economies Collapsing
Suicide airplanes crashed into New York’s Twin Towers, causing thousands of casualties, one of the towers has collapsed entirely. The attack was followed by two explosions at the Pentagon, and an explosion at the Washington Mall. The White House, the UN and the Capitol building have been evacuated by the American Army and National Guard.
In the blackest day in the history of terrorism in the United States, two planes crashed into New York’s World Trade Center in sequence, causing thousands of casualties and an unknown number of deaths. One of the planes was a Boeing 767, apparently hijacked en route from Boston to Los Angeles. The Federal Aviation Authority has grounded all flights in the entire United States.
The attack on the World Trade Center was merely the first in a series of attacks now ongoing. An explosion was soon reported at the Pentagon, followed shortly thereafter by another hijacked plane which crashed into the Pentagon building. A third explosion was reported at the Washington Mall. The White House, Pentagon, and Capital building have meanwhile been evacuated, as has the UN building. At time of writing one of the Twin Towers has collapsed entirely.
The New York Stock Exchange remained closed; it is feared that a sharp crash in the value of stocks will immediately follow its opening. In Europe, stock markets were already open, and immidietly fell sharply, some by as much as 10% within an hour.
