The+Oh-Nos!!tl

=The Oh Nos= The decade of 2000-2009 had a lot of troubling times that made everyone say "Oh No!!" On September 11, 2001 the twin towers were attacked by two airplanes and the towers ended up crumbling to the ground. The Pentagon was also attacked and about half of it was destroyed. There was also a plane that we think was most likely going to hit the White House, but the people on the plane somehow found out about it and took over the plane. That plane unfortunately ended up crashing in a field near Shanksville in rural Pennsylvania, but it also was a blessing that the plane didn't reach it's destination and kill more people. In March of 2003 we, the US, went to war with Iraqbecause of the attack on the twin towers back in 2001. The war is still going on today in 2010 and there is little sign of it ending soon. There are approximately 50,000 U.S. troops in Iraq right now and more are planned to go over. December 26, 2004 a tsunami occured in Sumatra, and Indonesian island, and killed nearly 300,000 people from nations in the region and tourists from around the world. A Hurricane also happened in August 2005, it hit southern Florida and southeast Lousiana and Mississippi beachfront towns. And some might say "Oh No" or "Oh Yes" to the next event but either way on Janruary 20, 2009 Barack Obama was sworn in as the 44th president of the United States. Obama is the first black president in the history of the US.
