Although we all remember the terrorist attack on the twin towers on 9/11 as a great dramatic impression on many people lives we often forget about the first terrorist attack on NYC's World Trade Center. Over 1,000 people were injured in the 1993 blast in an underground garage below one of the towers. It was truly the first dramatic demonstration of terrorism.
NEW YORK -- A ceremony honoring six people who died 20 years ago in the first terrorist attack on the World Trade Center was being held Tuesday at the 9/11 memorial, where the twin towers were destroyed eight years later.
More than 1,000 people were injured in the 1993 blast in an underground garage below one of the towers. It was the first dramatic demonstration that "terrorism is theater and New York is the biggest stage," Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly said last week.
