 | | The September 11, 2001 attacks (often referred to as 9/11) were a series of coordinated terrorist attacks upon the United States, predominantly targeting civilians, carried out on Tuesday, September 11, 2001. |
 | | The attacks are almost universally referred to as terrorist attacks, and certainly fall under the two most-used definitions, both "political violence by non-state actors" and "political violence against civilians". |
 | | On September 20, 2001, the president spoke before the nation and a joint session of the United States Congress, regarding the events of that day, the intervening nine days of rescue and recovery efforts, and his intent in response to those events. |
