- Domestic political support for the campaign against terrorism
- The military attack on Afghanistan.
- The diplomatic effort to bring together and hold together an anti-terrorism coalition, including Islamic states.
- The use of humanitarian food drops to entice Afghans to turn against their Taliban rulers.
