The reporting was particularly interesting, especially with ten years of hindsight - many recollections about the day were dead on (most reporters immediately realized that the nation was under attack, particularly after the 2nd plane hit the 2nd tower), but many of the information given that day was false (on CNN, on-air anchors actually did not see the plane hit the South Tower and only saw the explosion - as a result, the initial thought was that the fuselage of the plane lodged in the North Tower had exploded). Off of Pocket Trivia: US History - which of these stories were (wrongly) reported on September 11, 2001: There was a fire on the national mall, the FBI had been bombed, the Sears Tower had been bombed or the Brooklyn Bridge had been bombed?

US Presidents Trivia: Which of these terrorist attacks did not occur during Bill Clinton's Presidency?
This will hopefully be a very big week for Pocket Protector Games, as we are hoping that our next trivia game, Movies Trivia, will be available by the end of the week - and Music Trivia shouldn't be far behind! As you can imagine, we are very excited about all of the new offerings we are hoping to bring to your shortly!
Anyway, as for today's question. Terrorism has seen a dramatic rise in the past twenty of so years, particularly terrorism aimed at the United States. Bill Clinton's Presidency saw some very significant terrorist attacks, both on American soil and abroad. So, off of Pocket Trivia: US Presidents - Which of these terrorist attacks did not occur during Bill Clinton's administration? Is it the Oklahoma City Bombing, the World Trade Center Bombing, the Embassy bombings in Tanzania & Kenya or the Beirut Marine Barracks Bombings?

US History Trivia: What was the name of the US Navy ship that was attacked by Al-Qaeda operatives in Yemen?
Update week! As you may have noticed, Pocket Trivia: US History and Pocket Trivia: US Presidents launched an update a few weeks ago, putting 50 new questions into each of these games. So, for the rest of this week, when we feature these two games, we will discuss questions off of the update.
Today's question features a topic not far from the minds of any U.S. resident: terrorism. On October 12, 2000, a US Navy destroyer was attacked in Yemen, killing 17 sailors and injuring 39. The suicide-bombing was perpetrated by Al-Qaeda. So, in today's question off of US History: What was the name of the ship? Was it the USS Brenna, USS Blue Marlin, USS The Sullivans or USS Cole?
