9-11 and how it affected the United States.
Tuesday, September 11, 2001 was a day that devastated our entire nation and changed the lives of every American in some way. This was one of the most horrible tragedies in our nations history, because of all the lives lost and the twin towers that were demolished. The events that took place on September 11 had an outstanding effect on our country. The 9-11 tragedy was terrible yet unforgettable event. One year after this tragedy feels like a very short period of time.
There was Pearl Harbor, Oklahoma City, and now 9-11 is added to the list of American tragedies. With all the deaths of 9-11 almost everyone knows someone or knows someone who knows someone that was either in the World Trade Center and survived or died in the World Trade Center. This is an extremely sad but true way to look at it. Our country now tries to move on from this terrible experience, but will never forget it. 9-11 affected everyone as a whole as well as personally.
For better or for worse the September 11 tragedy changed America. Besides taking thousands of lives and knocking down the Twin Towers this tragedy has brought our nation closer together. We will now have another topic to add to the history books and pass on to prevent something like this from happening again. All Americans will remember where they were when the Twin Towers went down. Another affect anyone can see all around our country is patriotism. Everyone now has new pride in the United States. Although the events of 9-11 took so much away from us it made our country stronger as a whole.

Do you think that 9-11 has forced Americans to face up to the way they treat the middle east? or that America has turned inwards and clung to patriotism in order to avoid responsibility?
Tastefully dealt with, if a little emotive and un-supported for an essay.

Almost there
A little brief to explain a tragedy that did change the course of American policy towards terrorism. You are right when you state that everyone will remember where they were when the Towers fell. It joins a terrible list that includes the Challenger explosion (showing my age here), John Lennon and Elvis's deaths (okay, really showing my age), JFK's assassination (okay, I'm not THAT old yet), and so on.
Good paper, but can use some help with sentence structure. Good effort.
