The correct answer is letter A. Ever since the September 11th attacks some groups in the Middle East have made alliances with Al Qaeda. The studies show that Al Qaeda is no longer the hierarchal organization it used to be by the 9/11 episode. It is believed that supporters are now spread all over. Some groups surfaced in Middle East called:

Al Qaeda in Iraq, Al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb, Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula, Al Shabaab, The Nusra Front.
