The main goal of the terrorists in committing the September 11, 2001, attacks was to incite the United States into a holy war against Islamist countries. The attacks were orchestrated by the terrorist group al-Qaeda, led by Osama bin Laden, who aimed to provoke a military response that would rally support for their anti-U.S. agenda and further their ideological goals. While the attacks did aim to kill as many Americans as possible and inflict economic damage, the broader intention was to incite conflict and promote their radical beliefs.
