Abstract
The qualitative study examines the awful events of 9/11which led the United States to adopt a coherent counter terrorism strategy with the leading agenda of homeland security and protection of its citizens. It included the program to crush the global terror sponsoring individuals and organizations. The safekeeping of the people and country settled the leading determinant of the US counterterrorism policy immediately after the occurrence of horrible terrorist attacks. The Washington administration submitted its resolution to the UN Security Council which allowed the US and its allies to initiate Military Operation in Afghanistan against the dissidents & perpetrators of the 9/11 attacks. The War on Terror emerged as the policy response of the United States to the events of terrorist attacks on its soil. The dreadful attacks changed the American security policy, and threat perception, which led the evolution of US global war on Terror against al-Qaeda and its associates.
