We don't know what the terrorists wanted because they died on 9/11.
The obvious answer is that these men wanted to do as much damage as possible to the U.S.
Tomorrow will be the 9th anniversary of the worst terrorist attacks on American soil, when the Twin Towers were destroyed, the Pentagon was attacked, and Flight 93 crashed into a field in Pennsylvania.
Did the terrorists wanted to kill the former Secretary of Defense at that time?

Oh my, Ms. Sue. I kind of can't believe this day after 2001 would feel like any other normal day. Do you feel that way?
That's my opinion, Ms. Sue
It was a horrific day. I know it traumatized people of your generation who were just children -- but watched over and over again -- the tragic events on TV.
Other almost as traumatizing were the events in my lifetime that include the attack on Pearl Harbor, John F. Kennedy's assasination, and the Oklahoma City bombing.
Probably the most influential tragedy in my life was when at age 12, I first learned about the Holocaust and the six million Jews who were murdered.
