One major event that occurred during George W. Bush's presidency was the tragic terrorist attacks of 9/11. On September 11, 2001, Al Qaeda terrorists hijacked four U.S. commercial jetliners and three hit their targets in New York and Washington, D.C. A fourth plane crashed into a field in rural Pennsylvania. George Bush responded to the attacks suddenly and promised to America that he would do the best he could to prevent future attacks. The Homeland Security Department was formed to protect the nation from future attacks that may be planned. Also, the Bush Administration announced that the U.S. would use military force to prevent threats to its national security by terrorists. Bush ignited the Iraq war in 2003.
