Question

Answer 1

Answer:

Pointing to the US military presence on Islamic soil.

Explanation:

Al-Qaeda is a terrorist organization that reached its peak during the early 2000s, but since then has gradually been in decline. The leader of al-Qaeda was Osama bin Laden, a billionaire that had big influence and aspirations for the formation of one united Islamic Caliphate. This organization was a terrorist one, as it used violence and attacks on civilians and objects by having a political background.

While al-Qaeda has been on the scene before 2001, it wasn't that well known globally until this year, and what made it famous was the attack on the Twin Towers in New York, USA. It was a horrific attack in which two huge objects were leveled with the ground and a lot of innocent civilians lost their lives or got injured. Al-Qaeda stated that the reason for this act was because of the military presence of the US on Islamic soil, as well as their interference in the internal matters of the Islamic states and trying to control the region.
