It was known there were terrorists.
It was not known that Bin Laden was behind it.

It seems that the first actions of Al Qaeda were in Somalia, but it was not known at the time. I recall the trouble there being blamed on "warlords".

You seem to be projecting current information onto past events where the information was not known at the time.
