Al-Qaeda attacked the Pentagon on September 11, 2001, as part of a coordinated effort to strike high-profile symbols of American power and military capability. The Pentagon, as the headquarters of the U.S. Department of Defense, represented America's military might and involvement in Middle Eastern affairs.

This act was intended to rally support for their extremist ideology and resistance against perceived Western oppression.
