11. Soviet Afghan War December 1979 – February 1989
The Soviet Union, Communists, came to the aid of the Afghan Communist Government that was fighting Muslim insurgents (rebels).
The Mujahedeen, a term used for someone who is fighting a Jihad, Holy war. They called themselves “Freedom Fighters” for they were fighting the Soviet Invasion.

17. U.S. Help
During the Afghan War, the U.S. was fighting a “Cold War” against the Soviet Union.
Cold War means they actually never fought; however, the U.S. sent many weapons, trainers, and money to the Mujahedeen.
Finally, the Soviets left Afghanistan, leaving the Mujahedeen to take control, giving power to the growing Al-Qaeda.

18. Fatwa
After their victory in Afghanistan, bin Laden returned to Saudi Arabia.
In 1996, after Al - Qaeda was strengthened and started to spread in the Middle East and Africa, bin Laden issued a Fatwa (religious edict, law).
bin Laden stated that all foreigners in Islamic Countries must be kicked out, especially American interests and their allies.

19. [T]he ruling to kill the Americans and their allies – civilians and military – is an individual duty for every Muslim who can do it in any country in which it is possible to do it, in order to liberate the al-Aqsa Mosque [in Jerusalem] and the holy mosque [in Mecca] from their grip, and in order for their armies to move out of all the lands of Islam, defeated and unable to threaten any Muslim. This is in accordance with the words of Almighty Allah, 'and fight the pagans all together as they fight you all together,' and 'fight them until there is no more tumult or oppression, and there prevail justice and faith in Allah'.
