Why did jefferson make the louisiana purchase? a: he thought that by doing so he could avoid war with france. b: he wanted to the french win the war against britain. c: he thought it would be easier than trying to conquer the territory. d: he wanted access to the caribbean colony of saint domingue.

C - He thought it would be easier than trying to conquer the territory.

A is incorrect as, at the time, the United States and France were allies and would not be going to war at any time during this time period.

B is incorrect as, well, how would this aid the French in a war with Britain? If France needed funds from an ally, they could do so.

D is incorrect as, well, the Louisiana Purchase had no access to the Caribbean or the sea much.

Hope this helps!

after a more than a decade and a half of combating al qaeda (aq) in afghanistan and pakistan,

the united states faces a diverse array of threats from al qaeda affiliates in the middle east and

africa. while senior al qaeda figures reportedly remain based in pakistan, the network includes

a number of affiliates across the middle east and africa including al qaeda in the arabian

peninsula (aqap), al qaeda in the islamic maghreb (aqim), and al shabaab. al qaeda also

retains a small but possibly growing presence in afghanistan. u.s. officials have stated that al

qaeda still maintains a foothold in syria through its ties to hay’at tahrir al sham (formerly

known as the nusra front), though the exact nature of that relationship may be evolving. this

report examines the threat posed by al qaeda affiliates in the middle east and africa as described

by u.s. officials and outside observers, as well as the u.s. approach to date in responding to these

threats. this was all i could find hope this : )
