Who was responsible for the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001?
A
Saddam Hussein
B
Osama Bin Laden
C
Hamid Karzai
D
Mustafa Kemal
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Bin Laden orchestrated the attacks. He initially denied involvement, but later recanted his false statements. Al Jazeera broadcast a statement by him on September 16, 2001: “I stress that I have not carried out this act, which appears to have been carried out by individuals with their own motivation."

Detailed explanation-2: -The attacks were widely condemned by the governments of the world, including those traditionally considered hostile to the United States, such as Cuba, Iran, Libya, and North Korea.

Detailed explanation-3: -Often, it is a date that only meant something to a very limited or arcane circle until its true value was unveiled to a stunned world. Thus Princip chose the date of Serbia’s 14th century defeat in Kosovo and McVeigh chose the anniversary of Janet Reno’s bloodbath at the Branch Davidian compound in Waco, Texas.
