What attack is Al-Qaeda NOT associated with?

The Oklahoma City bombing is not associated with Al-Qaeda, as it was perpetrated by Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols in 1995. This act of domestic terrorism targeted the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City and was motivated by anti-government sentiments, particularly in response to perceived federal overreach and events like the Waco siege.

In contrast, the other events listed, such as the USS Cole bombing, the 9/11 attacks, and the bombing of American embassies in Africa, were all carried out by Al-Qaeda and highlight the organization's focus on attacking U.S. interests abroad and its broader agenda against perceived enemies of Islam.
