Answer:

As a result of Al'Qaeda's claim to be behind the September 11 terrorist attacks, the United States invaded Afghanistan within months of the attack.

Step-by-step explanation:

The War in Afghanistan began on October 7, 2001 with the "Operation Enduring Freedom", launched to invade and occupy the Asian country. The invasion was unleashed in response to the attacks of September 11, 2001 in the United States, of which this country blamed Osama bin Laden.

The declared objective of the invasion was to find Osama bin Laden and other Al Qaeda leaders to bring them to trial, and to overthrow the government of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan ruled by the emir mullah Omar, who supported and gave refuge and coverage of Al Qaeda members.
