The short answer is that most of your questions are still unknowns.
Both of the World Trade Center towers have collapsed after being hit by
hijacked passenger aircraft. 50,000 people work in the towers but there is
no estimated casualty figures.
Another hijacked passenger plane crashed into the Pentagon in Washington,
DC. The Pentagon is the worlds largest office building and houses the
Department of Defense.
All flights in the US have been grounded by the FAA.
Borders between Mexico and Canada have been closed.
All federal buildings across the nation have been evacuated.
It's crazy.
Motive has been speculated... Mostly middle-east policy and anti American
sentiment there... Nothing confirmed. Several groups have denied involvement
and Arafat (PLO) and Taliban (Afghanistan) have denounced the attacks.
The Vice President is at the White House and the President is being moved to
an undisclosed location.
