The Threat Posed by Terrorism Against the United States in 2025

For roughly the past 20 years the U.S. has in one capacity or another been involved in counter-terrorism related activities throughout the middle east. From 2001 to 2021 the U.S. had a military presence in Afghanistan. Currently the U.S. has troops stationed in Iraq, Syria, Kuwait, Bahrain, UAE, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and Jordan. Following the terrorist attacks of 9/11 the U.S. entered Afghanistan with the mission of destroying Al-Qaeda. Since 9/11 the U.S. has not witnessed terrorist attacks on home soil anywhere near to the extent of the 9/11 attacks. However 24 years on from the horrific day in September, 2001 the U.S. is slowly turning its attention towards other terrorist related threats rather than focusing on the main enemies of the past 20 years, Al-Qaeda, ISIS, IS, and the many affiliates. But is this the right decision?
