The Department of Homeland Security was created to protect the United States from terrorist attacks.

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

The intervention of the United States government in the governance and politics of Arab countries brought the US on the hit list of many Islamic terrorist organizations. Hence, owing to the threats posed by international terrorist organizations like the Al Qaeda and Taliban, it was found necessary to have a dedicated department to serve the purpose of taking preventive actions against possible terrorist operations. The said department was thus established in 2002 under the president ship of George W. Bush.
