Answer 2

Answer: prevent the support and conduct of terror activities.

After the September 11 attacks against the United States, President Bush declared a "war on terror." This military campaign was particularly directed towards al-Qaeda and the countries that were believed to be helping it. However, it has expanded and has involved attacks on Afghanistan, Iraq, Yemen, Syria, Pakistan and Libya, among others. The objective of these invasions was to prevent the support and conduct of terror activities. However, it is now believed to have been a failure. Moreover, it has led to increased extremism and Anti-American sentiment in the region. It has also led to violations of human rights by American troops.
