Then they lost WWI, and was broken up. In 1947, we established Israel as a country, but they hate it. In the 1970s, they try to get us out of there. The Muslim countries want Israel wiped off the face off the map, and we give them weapons and money so Israel can fight them, so in turn, they don't like us. We also had U.S. troops Saudi Arabia in the 1990s and they didn't like it and that's when they started attacking us.al-qaeda was formerly The Mujaheddin. We gave them money to help them fight The Soviet Union and they eventually became al-qaeda.The Department of Homeland Security was made.The Patriot Act was passed.There was increased security at airports and other places.
