On 9-11 they gathered together on a bunch of planes armed with box cutters, four planes american airlines planes were chosen. 2 of these planes would smash into the twin towers, one of them into the pentigon, and the last one stopped by passengers who rushed them.

After their deaths their manifesto was released a 49 page booklet about the evils of the patarchy and capitalism. It was the largest act of domestic terrorism in american history.

But what if the attacks had been caused by international terrorists instead? Al quada tried to bomb the twin towers unsuccessfully in the past, and there were other terrorist groups what if they had done it instead.

What would our world look like today?
 
Sorry I just don't see Islamists being so bold as to do that. Since the failure of the 1993 bombing, they have limited themselves to terrorizing the Islamic World (Bin Laden's brutal assassination of Algerian President Abdelaziz Bouteflika being particularly infamous) rather than attempting any attacks on foreign soil.

I think the banning of the democratic party may have never happened, the forces on the right that were unleased after 9/11 would have never got off the ground. Can't see a President Sessions in 2008 either.
 
there is absolutely no way a bunch of ( insert US based racial stereotype for desert dwellers here) would ever have the stones to pull of something like that in the US of A. The feds or the CIA would stop them.

OOC: I can't see any government banning any democratic party if then a country not go as dictatorship and for USA it is pretty difficult.

Yes, if Islam or even just Islamic organizations weren't banned OTL, there's no way they're going to ban a mainstream, capitalist-oriented party claiming the loyaltiy of at least half the electorate.

That said, look for added surveillance of officially socialist/progressive groups, which might shade into the left-wing of rhe Democrats a bit. People like Sanders might wanna be careful what they say on the phone, and the Greens would likely be infiltrated to the gills.

US-EU relations would be better as the extreme backlash against the left in America hurt diplomatic relations with the more left-leaning EU countries. This might mean that the UK probably wouldn't have left the EU by way of Article 50 as Blair's decision to support America(which always struck me as down right ASB as obviously he's apart of Labour). I'd say that ITTL Corybn and the more hard-line socialst sections of Labour could've taken over the party and most likely would've become PM at some point, instead of being the laughing stock he is right now
