abstract
  • The War on Terrorism, (also referred to as the US Jihadist War, Global War on Terror, or Overseas Contingency Operation) is the common term for the military, political, legal and ideological conflict against Islamic terrorism and Islamic militants, and specifically used in reference to operations by the United States and their allies in NATO and the United Nations, in response to the September 11, 2001 attacks. The stated objectives of the war in the US are to protect the citizens of the US and allies, to protect the business interests of the US and allies at home and abroad, break up terrorist cells in the US, and disrupt the activities of the international network of terrorist organizations made up of a number of groups under the umbrella of al-Qaeda. Both the term and the policies the war denoted were a source of controversy in its day, as critics argued it had been used to justify unilateral preemptive war, human rights abuses and other violations of international law. In March 2009, the Obama administration requested that Pentagon staff members avoid use of the term, instead using "Overseas Contingency Operation". The war has been over since the end of the US led war in Afghanistan in 2014.
