The 9/11 incident in the United States

On September 11, 2001, the streets of New York city were as bustling as ever, with people rushing to their destinations in the vast city. Suddenly, a plane appeared in the sky, and its trajectory seemed strange.

Soon, people sensed the anomaly and began to shout and run, but it was too late, and the plane crashed straight into the towering World Trade Center Building One. Rumbling black smoke rose into the air, skyscrapers began to collapse, screams and cries for help came and went, like purgatory on earth.

Soon after, the second hijacked plane crashed into the trade center building two, and the two tall buildings collapsed one after another under the violent impact. The sudden attack killed nearly 3,000 Americans and cost the nation nearly $200 billion in economic damage.

After the event occurs. Armies across the country were on high alert, and U.S. intelligence quickly locked up al-Qaida leader bin Laden, identifying him as the mastermind behind the 9/11 attacks.

Soon, bin Laden became one of the FBI's top ten most wanted men, and the bounty for bin Laden's capture was raised from $25 million to $50 million.

From then on, bin Laden began his outlaw career.

The U.S. side linked the "9/11" incident to os-jain Bin Laden

After the events of 9/11, the world's attention to this discredited terrorist suddenly increased, and bin Laden's life and personal life slowly came to light under the eyes of the world, and the mystery wrapped around bin Laden was being unveiled.

Bin Laden was born into a wealthy business family in Saudi Arabia and is the 17th of 52 children. According to bin Laden's childhood playmate Batafei recalled: the teenager Bin Laden was gifted, especially outstanding in mathematics, loved football, loved to watch kung fu movies, and was good at riding, cars and so on.

He likes to drive American cars to mosques to pray, and he also likes to buy sports cars and yachts, and have fun with friends. How did such a seemingly normal teenager grow into a well-known "terror demon"?

It is said that although bin Laden had a family of many people, he had always been addicted to the Teachings of the Quran and jihadist doctrines of Islam, showed extreme fanaticism for religion, and lived a hard life like a priest every day.

The Soviet invasion of Afghanistan in 1979 rewrote bin Laden's life, and in order to support the Islamic State, bin Laden exhausted his family resources and paid for Afghan guerrillas to resist the Soviet Union.

During the 1990 Gulf War, os-laden was dissatisfied with the entry of U.S. troops into Kuwait and issued a public speech asking all Europeans and Americans to leave his borders. Perhaps it was from this period that bin Laden transformed his pious religious beliefs and paranoid perceptions into extreme religious practices.

Under bin Laden's leadership, al-Qa'idah has grown in size and regulation, waging so-called "jihad" around the world.

Osama bin Laden appeared in the public eye in a camouflage suit, wrapped in a turban, and carrying a rifle, constantly developing his armed forces to fight against the United States.

"He was a taciturn and even somewhat shy man, thin in stature, with a thick beard, like a weak scholar, and spoke softly."

This is what people around bin Laden said about him. If you don't really know bin Laden, it's hard to associate his image with a terrorist.

But it is such a seemingly weak person who has planned a terrible tragedy and become the number one enemy of the United States.

The events of 9/11 made os-jain bin Laden a pushpin in the hearts of the U.S. government. But since 2001, bin Laden has been unaccounted for like evaporation on earth. His family has repeatedly claimed to be dead, but bin Laden's voice has been constantly on the Internet.

In order to investigate the whereabouts of bin Laden, the CIA formed a panel of experts, but the team could not trace bin Laden's mail, telephone and other information.

In 2009, the newly inaugurated U.S. President Barack Obama formally directed the manhunt for bin Laden, asking the CIA director to "find bin Laden and capture or kill him."

In order to allow bin Laden, who does not use any electronic communication devices, the Panel interrogated all prisoners held in Afghan prisons, and although not a single prisoner gave exact information, many of the prisoners mentioned a single person , Abu Ahmed.

With great acumen, the panel turned to Abu Ahmed as a breakthrough in its search for bin Laden. They soon discovered that Abu Amadeh lived in a remote village on the outskirts of Pakistan called Abtarba.

Following a follow-up survey of Abu Amald's daily life, the panel found that he used his mobile phone only in fixed places and frequented a heavily guarded three-story building.

Members of the U.S. military intelligence team followed the clues and discovered more secrets hidden in this mysterious building. Satellite imagery suggests that the building resembles a fortress, surrounded by a wall of barbed wire. The interior of the building is divided into several areas by walls, and two security doors are also set up.

In order to hide the eyes and ears, there are almost no windows on the side of the building facing the street, so every move inside the house is difficult for the outside world to detect.

On the third floor of the building, there is a platform surrounded by a wall of up to 2.1 meters high, which is used to prevent others from seeing the interior.

Although geographically, the building is only a two-hour drive from the bustling city centre, and less than 100 metres opposite the building is a Pakistan Army Officer School. However, due to the fact that the owner of the hospital never goes out, all the household garbage is burned every day.

Even if you walk inside the building, you will walk against the wall. So for years, no one noticed the building, and no one thought that it was inhabited by bin Laden, who planned the 9/11 events that shocked the world.

Bin Laden and his youngest wife, a son, two brothers and a retinue of followers live in the building.

For safety reasons, bin Laden did not install any liaison equipment in the house, did not have any contact with the outside world, and arranged for soldiers to guard in shifts 24 hours.

The building where bin Laden was last located

Although bin Laden and his family never went into hiding, and his messengers and bodyguards followed a low-key and meticulous approach to security measures, the U.S. military panel found clues that bin Laden might be living in the building.

In order to confirm the identity of the head of the household, the FBI built a "safe house" next to the building, sending people to observe the lifestyle of the head of the household every day.

They found that there were always multiple sets of women's clothes on the clothesline in the house, and after collecting sufficient evidence, the investigators determined that the building was inhabited by multiple adult women and an adult male, which was in line with bin Laden's "polygamous" status.

In order to eliminate os-laden, the U.S. Special Forces set up a small detachment to develop an action plan. A team of U.S. national security advisers built a physical model of bin Laden's hermitage building in Afghanistan to simulate what might happen during the operation.

Finally, the U.S. military established two sets of courses of action, the first of which was to use B-2 bombers to directly bomb bin Laden's hiding place, ensuring that all residents hiding there were killed. The second is to send elite special forces to infiltrate the residence and carry out operations.

The first plan, while quick and less risky to U.S. forces, would also destroy evidence that bin Laden was lurking in the building and could endanger the safety of surrounding civilians.

In the end, the U.S. government and military chose a second course of action.

Bin Laden's location

On the morning of April 29, 2011, Obama authorized the operation in the White House Foreign Affairs Reception Room. Two days later, as night fell, several planes carrying 24 members of the U.S. Special Forces quietly took off from Jalalabad Air Base in Afghanistan. Three other aircraft and 25 special forces are on standby at the Afghan border.

At the beginning of the operation, the U.S. military encountered difficulties. Due to the cyclone generated by the high walls of the building, a helicopter crashed into the ground during landing, and the fuselage was severely damaged, and the commandos had to abandon the helicopter and open fire while walking close to the building.

The commandos were met with fierce resistance from bin Laden's entourage, and after a fierce gunfight, the commandos entered the main building and found bin Laden and his family on the second and third floors.

According to U.S. officials, Bin Laden tried to defend himself with a gun before he was killed, while the commandos fired bullets that hit os-Lam bin Laden in the left eye and several more bullets hit bin Laden.

One of bin Laden's sons and two cronies were also killed in the operation, and three other women were killed or wounded in the operation.

In order to confirm that it was os-laden who was killed, the US military used methods such as identification of relatives and friends, facial recognition, and DNA genealogy comparison to identify the body.

From the data analysis, the suspected killing of the commandos is that more than 95% of the facial features of bin Laden's body match the public photos of bin Laden, and the DNA sequence of the corpse also matches that of multiple bin Laden family members. Finally, the United States confirmed that bin Laden was killed in the raid.

Within 24 hours of bin Laden's death, the United States, in accordance with Islamic funeral traditions, packed his body in a weight-bearing bag that slowly slid into the ocean from the deck of the USS Carl Vinson after waiting for a religious message from a military official to read out.

Since then, this "horror tycoon" who has made the United States tremble has officially ended his sinful life.

After the operation, the U.S. military razed the building to the ground to prevent ostensible followers of ostensible bin Laden from using his hiding quarters as a holy site.

Although bin Laden has disappeared completely, there are still many opinions about how he was discovered and the decade of mysterious hiding.

Bin Laden's death ground was razed to the ground

Some people say that bin Laden was actually under the control of the Pakistani government before he was killed by the US military; some people say that bin Laden will be found because his personal doctor informed him; some people say that the US military could have eliminated bin Laden long ago, but in order to launch military operations in the Middle East in the name of counter-terrorism, bin Laden was hidden for ten years.

What is the truth? Perhaps the truth has been obscured with the death of os-women bin Laden. But in any case, the terrorist, who carries thousands of innocent civilian lives, finally got the retribution he deserved.

Bin Laden is gone, terrorist organizations are not gone, and terror is still raging around the world, threatening people's lives.

Any country has a long way to go on the road of counter-terrorism, and peaceful development on the basis of the human community is an irreversible trend of the times.
