9/11: An Extermination

Background:

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and Mohammed Atef first brought about the terrorizing plan of attacks to Osama Bin Laden in 1996. Their goal was to highjack planes and crash them into buildings that were important to America. Their targets were the World Trade Centre, The Pentagon, The White House, The library Tower in LA, The Willis Tower of Chicago, the Space Needle in Seattle, and The Empire State Building. Khalid Sheikh Mohammed was ordered to personally high jack his own plane and land it on US soil to give a political speech for all of America to hear. Fortunately, their plan was cut short with only three buildings being victims of his wrath. But, what if they weren’t? What if they had managed to succeed but their targets weren’t in America, but in Western Europe? How do you think Europe and the rest of the world would react to such a catastrophe?

The Attack:

September 11th 2001 started in much the same way as the original timeline, it was about 8.40am and the streets of London were in full swing. Life was going the way it normally does until 8.45am struck the clock. Two Boeing 767’s had flown into Buckingham Palace and The Big Ben. Another plane crashes into 30 St Mary Axe (The Gherkin) just twenty minutes later. The death toll is estimated to be around the same as OTR, however the Queen Elizabeth II had been killed among the rubble.

Meanwhile in France, the Eiffel Tower had been struck near the bottom, forcing it to collapse onto the field below it. A second French plane crashes into the Arc de Triumph, and a flight surges into The Louvre. All these terrorist attacks occur between 8.45 and 10.15 leaving everyone in a flair of panic and tragedy.

More attacks happen throughout Western Europe. Barcelona’s Sagrada Familia, the Colloseum and the Pantehon in Rome, along with the Reichstag Building in Berlin. All of the Western European countries are hit within an hour. With no real defence there is no choice but to wait out the attacks until they come to a close.

All flights around Europe are cancelled. Although, one last plane lands in the London airport. Holding 52 hostages from the flight, out steps Khalid holding a child by his side with a knife to his throat. With BBC recording, Khalid begins his political speech stating that this is only the beginning of what is to come. He is holding onto what appears to be a trigger for some sort of bomb. As his rant comes to a close, Khalid lets the world know… “This has been my gift to Allah, the world will be a better place once the Westernized world has been abolished. America know that you are next in Allah’s plan to rid the world of evil.” He then proceeds to walk back inside the plane with the boy by his side. Less than 10 seconds go by until BANG! The plane explodes into smithereens, killing everyone on board.

As everyone around Europe mourn for countless lives that were lost on this day, Europe’s top leaders are summoned together to figure out how this had happened. Searching through data bases to retrieve the identities of all the high jackers. They learn that the majority come from Saudi Arabia but there were recruits from every Muslim country.

The Aftermath:

After to coming to realization that these terrorist attacks were real, every leader decides to bring justice to the families and people lost during this sad sad day. The following day, the Prime Minister of England Tony Blair addresses the world of their decision for vengeance. Everyone around Europe and the world wanted the same thing and it was agreed every European nation would send their entire army’s into every Muslim nation and eliminate them all. America was told not to interfere unless absolutely needed. Europe wanted vengeance and they were determined to get it.

Vengeance:

The attack was brutal, hundreds upon hundreds of bombs were dropped on every major Muslim city. Nukes were diploid over Saudi Arabia, destroying everything to the point that the country no longer existed. By the new year, every Muslim country had been eradicated. Not one country was able to withstand the on slaughter.

Many Muslims fled their homelands down to the countries in Oceania in search of peace and freedom from the violence. Australia and New Zealand became the promise land to any Muslim lucky enough to escape the war zone in the middle east.

By mid 2005, the European union had managed to destroy every Muslim nation demonstrating that they are not to be messed with by any terrorist group ever again. America did not take part in the extermination but full warned all of Europe that they had the firepower to destroy every nation if the European Union became mad with power.
