Because Terrorism isn't something that only happens in the United States. NATO also called for a War on Terror.

Yeah, no. They grow poppies because it makes them a shit ton more money than any other crop. Not because they like the Taliban, who, by the way are aren't terrorists, they're a militant political group. They're allies of Al Quaeda, but they themselves aren't terrorists.
