Answer:

A.  The terrorists blamed America for the problems of the Muslim world.

BTerrorists attacked targets in New York City and near Washington, D.C.

Explanation:

In 2001, Osama bin Laden and al Qaeda -not Saddan Hussein- designed and carried out the attacks on the United States, which included hijacking and crashing airplanes in New York and Washington. The reason was a prejudice against the US, which they accused of anti-Muslim sentiments. In fact, Al-Qaeda followed a misleading version of Islam, which is not in accordance with  most Muslims around the world.
