Many terrorist groups are international in scope and act on targets in several countries.
Al Qaeda, the group responsible for the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks in the
United States, is a prime example.

4. Go to the "Documents" section. Pick three documents and summarize the

5. Go to the "Profiles" section. Research three groups. What are the important
