===War in Afghanistan===
On October 7th, 2001, President George W. Bush ordered to bomb targets to al-Qaeda's camps and the [[Taliban]]'s [[military]] forces in Afghanistan. "We will not waver, we will not tire, we will not falter, we will not fail, freedom will prevail", President Bush explained. The attack quickly shattered the [[Taliban]]'s defenses, and by early December the Taliban regime had collapsed. The United States and it's allies then helped Afghanistan create a new [[government]]. By March 2002, the Taliban and al-Qaeda members were beginning to regroup again in the mountain's of the [[Pakistan]] border. President Bush responded by launching Operation Anaconda, where al-Qaeda troops were defeated.
