A Thread.

Let's go back to 1978 a coup takes place in Afghanistan and a pro-USSR government comes into power and establishes the Democratic Republic of Afghanistan (DRA) (1978-1992). Image
In response to this, the US and UK with the help of Saudi Arabia and China recruits and trains islamic militants in Pakistan and Afghanistan which will later become the Mujahideen. These militant groups protest and fight against the new Soviet backed Afghan Government.
To counter these militants the Afghan government requested the Soviets to intervene and help them in the fight against the Mujahideen menace. Thus the Soviets were dragged into this conflict that would last for 10 years which would later become Soviet-Afghan War.
The fighting continued and more and more militant groups were created and funded by the West. By the early 80s, as the long term effect of the revisionist policies of then Soviet leader Kruschev in the 50s, the Soviet economy began to plunge into crisis.
Thus the war kept on to take a toll on the failing economy and worsened it. And by 1987, the new Al-Quaeda joined the hands with the Mujahideens and other militants to fight the USSR.
Thus owing to the failing economy and Gorbachev's Perestroika and Glasnost policies, the Soviet forces were withdrawn from Afghanistan thereby ending the war. Thus this war becomes one of the causes that contributed to the dissolution of the Soviet Union.
Thus in short the West lured the Soviets into this meaningless conflict with a plan of destabilizing the Soviet Union and as expected the plan worked effectively. After the dissolution of the USSR, the problem arised was that what to do with these islamic militants.
The West left the work of "cleansing" and dealing with these militants completely in the hands of Pakistan, Afghanistan (in 1992 the DRA was dissolved) etc. Thus these militants (Mujahideen, Al- Qaeda etc) thus grew into more religious extremists.
Thus the current terrorist groups (eg. Taliban (estd. 1994), ISIS etc) are the successors of these militant organisations created by the US against USSR. Hillary Clinton openly admits this.
Then the war for oil control in the Middle East began. Along with the worsening of the fight between Sunni and Shia Muslims.
Osama Bin Laden:
Son of a Saudi Millionaire, who joined the Mujahideen forces in Pakistan to fight against the USSR intervention in Afghanistan as per the will of the West. By 1988 he founded the Al-Qaeda. He financed and recruited militants to aid the Soviet Afghan War. Image
After establishing a new base in Afghanistan in 1996 Bin Laden declared war against the US starting with his involvement in the 1998 US Embassy Bombings . Al-Qaeda believed that there is aa Christian Jewish alliance being created to fight against the Muslims worldwide.

9/11
On September 11th 2001,were a series of four coordinated terrorist attacks by the Al-Qaeda against the United States. Four passenger airliners which had departed from airports in the northeastern United States bound for California were hijacked by 19 Al-Qaeda terrorists.
Two of the planes, American Airlines Flight 11 and United Airlines Flight 175, crashed into the North and South towers, respectively, of the World Trade Center complex in Lower Manhattan.
The attacks resulted in 2,977 fatalities, over 25,000 injuries, and substantial long-term health consequences, in addition to at least $10 billion in infrastructure and property damage. It is the single deadliest terrorist attack in human history.
The blame quickly fell on Al-Qaeda. The US responded by launching a War on Terror against by invading Afghanistan to depose the Taliban which had failed to comply with US demands to expel and extradicate Al-Qaeda and Osama Bin Laden from Afghanistan.
Al-Qaeda under Osama Bin Laden probable 9/11 attack motives were the US support for Israel, attack of Muslims in Somalia, Indian oppression against Muslims in Kashmir, Russia's attack against Muslims in Chechnya, Sanctions against Iran , US Troops in Saudi Arabia etc.
As the aftermath of 9/11 the Western propaganda machine began the spread of Toxic Islamophobia which indirectly targeted even innocent Muslims. In short creating a Mindset among the people that "Islam is the Religion of Terror"
Conspiracy:
There are wide conspiracy theories that CIA along with Al-Qaeda was responsible for the 9/11 incident so that the US have a reason to declare a war against Middle East under the pretext of War on Terror, to actually loot the Oil reserves of the Middle East.
"The CIA and September 11"by Andreas von Bulow, a former state secretary in the German Federal Ministry of Defence. The book disputes Al-Qaeda's responsibility for the 9/11 and suggests that it may have instead been a false flag operation arranged by the US government and Israel. Image
Thereby the war on Terror is actually the war to snatch the oil from middle East which caused immense suffering and deaths among the civilians and a giving way to accuse and attack innocent muslims for everything the terrorists do.
"Terrorism has no religion". In Prophet Muhammed's Islam no terrorist can be a muslim. Killing innocents is not a practice of Islam. Planting bombs is not a practice of Islam. Osama Bin Laden cannot be a Muslim, Abu Bakr Al Bhagdadi cannot be a Muslim.
