Which of the following events directly led to the war of terrorism?
a. the islamic revolution

b. the creation of israel

c. the september 11,2001 attacks

d. the 2011 protests throughout the middle east

I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is option C. It is the  September 11,2001 attacks that directly led to the war of terrorism. After the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, the Bush administration declared a worldwide "war on terror," involving open and covert military operations, and new security legislation. Hope this answers the question.
