Al-Qaeda is a global militant Sunni Islamist organization founded in 1988 by Osama bin Laden and Abdullah Azzam. Its goal is to drive US influence from Muslim nations and establish strict sharia law. It operates as a decentralized network and has conducted numerous terrorist attacks against Western targets since the 1990s from its base in Afghanistan under the Taliban. The US invasion of Afghanistan in 2001 following the 9/11 attacks forced al-Qaeda to relocate. Osama bin Laden, the leader and founder of al-Qaeda, was killed by US forces in Pakistan in 2011.
