A true account of how al-Qaeda operatives operated in America before 9-11. The road to 9-11 began after the break-up of the Ottoman Empire. The aspirations of people living in the Middle East were frustrated by the geopolitical designs of the British and French after World War One. Various political movements in the Arab countries attempted to achieve independence and to end western suzerainty. Among those movements was political Islam that blamed Muslim failures on corrupt pro-western Arab leaders and the acceptance of western principals. After the successful Shia revolution in Iran in 1979, Muslims were galvanized globally to achieve their goals through Islamic channels. When the United States provided support to the Islamic Mujahideen in Afghanistan as part of a 1980s Cold War strategy to bloody the Soviet Union it facilitated a call to Jihad that proliferated cells throughout Europe, Southeast Asia and the United States as well as the Islamic world. Groups like al-Qaeda espoused violent jihad as the only method to defeat western empires and establish true Islamic regimes. The goal of 9-11 was more than killing Americans and achieving terror. The purpose of 9-11 was to draw America into the heart of the Islamic world where it”s armies would be defeated and it”s citizens demoralized.
