me find out the different fatalities that happened on different planes and places/buildings.
This source talked about how many deaths and casualities happened in the specific
categories of 9/11. For example, there were 1,762 residents of New York that died and
674 residents of New Jersey. This source also showed the the number of injured people
which would mean that it showed the number of people that needed to be treated by all
the aid programs. This helped me in my research because, since it showed the number of
deaths and casualities, this telled me that the number of people who needed to be treated
was really really high which was why the aid programs was insufficent.

yellow and loud noises. When he moves to San Francisco, he finds a girl he likes and he
marries her after convincing her to get married since she had a son and was divorced.
Since the man was Muslim and his last name was Khan he was Muslim ans the girl
became Muslim to. Later that year 9/11 happens and they are greatly affected. Since the
attacks were done by Muslims, they think all Muslims are terrorists and start to attack the

another way of how people were victims in the 9/11 attacks. This movie is a reliable
source because this movie answers the question how were victims affected by the attacks
