2001年9月11日上午,两架被恐怖分子劫持的民航客机分别撞向美国纽约世界贸易中心一号楼和世界贸易中心二号楼,两座建筑在遭到攻击后相继倒塌,世界贸易中心其余5座建筑物也受震而坍塌损毁;
9时许,另一架被劫持的客机撞向位于美国华盛顿的美国国防部五角大楼,五角大楼局部结构损坏并坍塌。
事件发生后,全美各地的军队均进入最高戒备状态,虽然塔利班发表声明称恐怖事件与本·拉登无关。
但美国政府仍然认定本·拉登是恐怖袭击事件头号嫌犯,作为对这次袭击的回应,美国发动了“反恐战争”,入侵阿富汗以消灭藏匿基地组织恐怖分子的塔利班。
并通过了美国爱国者法案,2001年10月7日美国总统乔治·沃克·布什宣布开始对阿富汗发动军事进攻。
“911”事件是发生在美国本土的最为严重的恐怖攻击行动,遇难者总数高达2996人,对于此次事件的财产损失各方统计不一。

事件影响:
此次事件对美国民众造成的心理影响极为深远,美国民众对经济及政治上的安全感均被严重削弱。
9·11事件后,美国人几乎在顷刻间将一切可以保卫美国的技术手段都“神圣化”了。民意调查显示,2001年8月,支持政府尽快部署国家导弹防御系统(NMD)的人数约为54%,而到9月25日,这一数字升至80%以上。
此外,美国朝野团结一致、共同将反恐作为国家安全首要目标的状况下,民主党与共和党两党本来在导弹防御问题上的严重分歧也几乎瞬间消失了。
事件发生后,美国股民开始恐慌性抛售股票,导致股市暴跌。一周内,道琼斯指数、纳斯达克指数和标普指数分别下降14.3%、16.1%和11.6%,估计股票缩水1.4万亿美元。
尽管布什政府向股市内大量注入资金,9月17日重新开市后,恐慌性抛售仍然无法避免,各大股指不断下跌直至3年来的最低点。
