22 years have passed since September 11, which changed the course of the world.
The complex, which was built in place of the "twin towers" destroyed by the attacks on September 11, 2001 in New York, one of the cities that host the most tourists in the world, has become a frequent destination for the relatives of those who died in the attack, city residents and visitors over time.
The complex, which was visited by tourists with a bit of sadness and a bit of curiosity, started to turn into both a center to commemorate the attacks and a kind of touristic place.
The number of hotels, which was 6 in 2001, approached 40
Although it took about 5 years for the number of tourists in New York, which had decreased for about 3 years after 2001, to return to its previous state, the attacks triggered "nationalist tourism".
The fact that American citizens flocked to the region after the attacks to see both New York and the destroyed "twin towers" was evaluated in this context.
The number of hotels in the city center, which was 6 in 2001, approached 40.
THE ISLAMIC WORLD HAS BEEN DESTROYED
After the Twin Towers attack, the West, led by the USA, declared war on the Islamic world. A whole geography from Afghanistan to Syria, from Iraq to Libya was destroyed.
The West, which launched the Crusade against Muslims, martyred hundreds of thousands of people and made millions of people refugees. During this period, many women were raped and many children became orphans.
2,977 people died in the September 11 attacks, 5 million died afterwards
2,977 people died in the September 11 attacks in New York, Washington and Pennsylvania.
After these attacks, the USA launched an invasion attempt against Afghanistan on October 7, 2001, and Iraq on March 19, 2003, with the motto of "war on terrorism", and carried out attacks in various countries under the name of fighting terrorism.
In the last 22 years...
In the study titled "The Cost of War" conducted by Brown University in the USA in May, it was announced that more than 4.5 million people died directly or indirectly due to the interventions carried out by the USA in some countries in the last 22 years.
