Answer:

After the conquest of North Africa by Muslim Arabs in the 7th century CE, Islamic culture spread throughout West Africa via merchants, traders, scholars, and missionaries, that is largely through peaceful means whereby African rulers either tolerated the religion or converted to it themselves. In this way, Islam expanded across and around the Sahara Desert. In addition, the religion arrived in East Africa when Arab traders crossed the Red Sea and, in a second wave, settled along the Swahili Coast. Military campaigns did occur from the 14th century CE against the Christian kingdoms of Nubia, for example, while in the 18th century CE the Muslim Fulani launched a holy war in the Lake Chad region. There were also sometimes violent resistance by supporters of traditional African beliefs such as animism and fetish, spirit and ancestor worship.

<span>The answer that doesn't fit with the Bush Doctrine is A) that the US would go to war in order to preserve the freedom of the seas and protect neutral shipping.

The George W. Bush administration believed that the best defense against terrorism in the world was to use American power to spread democratic values in countries that were potential breeding grounds for terrorist activity. This sort of policy agenda was part of the "neoconservative" view of a number of  President George W. Bush's advisers -- especially some who had also served in the administration of his father, President George H.W. Bush. 

In the wake of the 9/11 attacks, there was a desire to push American values and not be shy about doing so with the use of American military might.  The core ideas of the "Bush Doctrine" were that the United States could pursue foreign policy goals on its own (without need for United Nations partnerships), that preemptive strikes were allowable against countries that harbored terrorists, and that regime change for the sake of promoting democracy was a good strategy.  </span>
