Why did the united states and its allies use force against afghanistan following the attacks on september 11, 2001

a- it's government was responsible for the attacks
b- its government would not hand over over bin ladin
c- osama bin ladin had fled there after the attacks
d- all the 9/11 hijackers were from afghanistan

        i'm fairly sure that the correct answers are 2 and 3.

        i used both my knowledge of world history and the process of elimination to obtain these answers. option 1 cannot be a possible selection because the mandate of heaven belongs to ancient chinese philosophical belief. option 4 sounds like it would benefit the region than detriment it. however, both 2 and 3 explain a potential reason for what could have contributed to the fall of the roman empire.

      hope this ! if i were you, i'd get a second opinion, because i haven't taken this course for a year. best of luck!
