Topic: Hijacked
When i think of the word hijacked one book comes to my mind called "Lets Roll" written by Todd Beamer's wife. Todd was a passenger on the flight that went down in the Pennsylvania field. Todd left behind a loving wife and children. Todd woke up early on the morning of September 11 to catch a plane to go to work. While they were flying the plane started to be hijacked by some terroists. Todd was not scared at all. He tried his best to help everyone on the plane stay calm and safe. He even called his wife on his cell phone at the time of the hijacking to tell her what was going on. The last words that he told her was that he loved her. That was the last time she heard from Todd. Even though Todd tried to help everyone, the hijackers still won because the plane ended up crashing into the Pennsylvania field where mostly everyone on board was killed.This book really touched my heart because i have family and friends that travel on planes. Its a really scary thought to think about.
Sometimes i wonder why do these things have to happen? No one really knows the correct answer to that question. The present president and resent presidents probaly couldn't even answer it. Some say that it's because these terroists have a lot of hate towards the United States. I think it's because of stupidity. In my opinion, the United States needs to be the bigger people about it and try to resolve the problem. Im not saying that it's our fault but we need to stop playing the same games that the terroists are playing. As long as we keep going back and forth then thousands of our family and friends who are in the military will continue to get killed. Not only people in the military but also innocent adults and kids will continue to be killed also. Innocent people who travel on planes and innocent people who work on base or anywhere around base have to think about it. When you watch the news about something terrible like this you never hear them talk about how we are trying to resolve or fix the problem. It's always about how many people got killed or what got bombed. We will continue to hear those answers if we don't do nothing about it. Seriously think about it. When will this come to an end? Or will it ever come to an end? Maybe they feel it will come to an end when everyone is dead. Hopefully it want get that far. The United States as one need to step up and try and make these horrible tragedies end.

Fail. I read your blog twice and it doesn't appear to be on topic. You never say what you would do if a plane was hijacked and you were in control of the situation. You focus more on 9/11 than anything. The blog is written well, it is just off topic.
