Question

al qaeda is identified as an international terrorist group because it
is motivated by a desire for change.
believes in the justness of the cause.
operates inside of a particular territory.
attacks targets in many areas of the globe.

Explanation:

The key term here is "international". An international terrorist group would have a global reach. Al - Qaeda is known for carrying out attacks in multiple countries across the world.

• The first option "is motivated by a desire for change" is too vague as many non - terrorist groups are also motivated by change.
• The second option "believes in the justness of the cause" is also a characteristic that can be shared by non - terrorist groups (e.g., some political activist groups).
• The third option "operates inside of a particular territory" contradicts the idea of being international.

Answer:

attacks targets in many areas of the globe.
