A1:  The North Tower got hit first.

Q2: How is this linked to other terrorist attacks in the world?
A2:  This is linked to other terrorist attacks because they all have to do with attacks on other countries and they mostly have to do with racism towards other nationalities.

 Q3:  What is going on in this cartoon?

 Q6:  How is this article connected with the photograph and political cartoon shown above?
A6:  The article the cartoon, and the photograph are connected because they show that we are fighting a war on terrorism and that we have to work to stop terrorists.
