How 9/11 Changed the World

 ​Twenty-five years after the September 11th attacks, Christiane looks back at the day that changed America and reshaped the world. Former U.S. Ambassador to NATO Nicholas Burns reflects on the global solidarity that followed 9/11 and the wars and upheaval that came next. Then, as Israel faces growing international isolation over Gaza and the occupied West Bank, former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert joins Christiane. In Yemen, CNN’s Nic Robertson gets rare access to an island at the heart of a battle with Iran-backed Houthis that could further threaten global oil supplies. Plus, as warnings grow about the risks posed by artificial intelligence and the enormous data centers powering it, Tennessee State Representative Justin Pearson tells Christiane why communities are pushing back. And from the Amanpour archives: in the extraordinary weeks after 9/11, Christiane reports from Kabul, where she and her team uncovered documents offering a glimpse inside the terror networks America had gone to war to defeat.   Air date: September 12, 2026   Guests: Nicholas Burns, former U.S. Ambassador to NATO Ehud Olmert, former Prime Minister of Israel Justin Pearson, Tennessee State Representative   Learn more about your ad choices.
