Bin Laden became involved in militant Islamic causes during the Soviet-Afghan War in the 1980s, where he gained experience in guerrilla warfare and established a network of jihadist operatives. His ideology was rooted in a radical interpretation of Islam, and he saw the United States as a primary enemy due to its support for Israel and presence in the Middle East.
