Not until 1998 did al Qaeda undertake a major terrorist operation of its own, in large part because  Bin Laden lost his base in Sudan. Ever since the Islamist regime came to power in Khartoum, the United States and other Western governments had pressed it to stop providing a haven for terrorist organizations. Other governments in the region, such as those of Egypt, Syria, Jordan, and even Libya, which were targets of some of these groups, added their own pressure. At the same time, the Sudanese regime began to change. Though Turabi had been its inspirational leader, General Omar al Bashir, president since 1989, had never been entirely under his thumb. Thus as outside pressures mounted, Bashir's supporters began to displace those of Turabi. The attempted assassination in Ethiopia of Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak in June 1995 appears to have been a tipping point. The would-be killers, who came from the Egyptian Islamic Group, had been sheltered in Sudan and helped by  Bin Laden. When the Sudanese refused to hand over three individuals identified as involved in the assassination plot, the UN Security Council passed a resolution criticizing their inaction and eventually sanctioned Khartoum in April 1996. A clear signal to  Bin Laden that his days in Sudan were numbered came when the government advised him that it intended to yield to Libya's demands to stop giving sanctuary to its enemies.  Bin Laden had to tell the Libyans who had been part of his Islamic army that he could no longer protect them and that they had to leave the country. Outraged, several Libyan members of al Qaeda and the Islamic Army Shura renounced all connections with him.  Bin Laden also began to have serious money problems. International pressure on Sudan, together with strains in the world economy, hurt Sudan's currency. Some of  Bin Laden's companies ran short of funds. As Sudanese authorities became less obliging, normal costs of doing business increased. Saudi pressures on the  Bin Laden family also probably took some toll. In any case,  Bin Laden found it necessary both to cut back his spending and to control his outlays more closely.

Inte förrän 1998 genomförde al-Qaida en egen stor terroristoperation, till stor del på grund av att Bin Ladin förlorade sin bas i Sudan. Ända sedan den islamistiska regimen kom till makten i Khartoum hade USA och andra västerländska regeringar pressat den att sluta tillhandahålla en fristad för terroristorganisationer. Andra regeringar i regionen, såsom de i Egypten, Syrien, Jordanien och till och med Libyen, som var måltavlor för några av dessa grupper, ökade sitt eget tryck. Samtidigt började den sudanesiska regimen förändras. Även om Turabi hade varit dess inspirerande ledare, hade general Omar al Bashir, president sedan 1989, aldrig varit helt under hans kontroll. Så när yttre påtryckningar steg började Bashirs anhängare tränga undan Turabis. Mordförsöket i Etiopien på Egyptens president Hosni Mubarak i juni 1995 tycks ha varit en vändpunkt. De blivande mördarna, som kom från den egyptiska islamiska gruppen, hade varit skyddade i Sudan och hjälpts av Bin Ladin. När sudaneserna vägrade att överlämna tre personer som identifierats som inblandade i mordkomplotten, antog FN:s säkerhetsråd en resolution som kritiserade deras overksamhet och sanktionerade så småningom Khartoum i april 1996. En tydlig signal till Bin Ladin om att hans dagar i Sudan var räknade kom när regeringen rådde honom att den ämnade ge efter för Libyens krav att sluta ge fristad åt sina fiender. Bin Ladin var tvungen att berätta för libyerna som hade varit en del av hans islamiska armé att han inte längre kunde skydda dem och att de var tvungna att lämna landet. Ursinnig avsade sig flera libyska medlemmar av al-Qaida och den islamiska armén Shōra alla förbindelser med honom. Bin Ladin började också få allvarliga penningproblem. Det internationella trycket på Sudan, tillsammans med påfrestningar i världsekonomin, skadade Sudans valuta. Några av Bin Ladins företag hade ont om pengar. I takt med att de sudanesiska myndigheterna blev mindre förpliktande ökade de normala kostnaderna för att göra affärer. Även de saudiska påtryckningarna på familjen Bin Ladin krävde förmodligen en del tribut. I vilket fall som helst fann Bin Ladin det nödvändigt att både minska sina utgifter och att kontrollera sina utgifter närmare. Besvarar svaret "Janyary 1998" korrekt frågan "När började den sudanesiska regimen förändras?"? ALTERNATIV: - nej - ja
Not until 1998, Al-Qaeda conducted its own major terrorist operation, largely due to Bin Laden losing his base in Sudan. Ever since the Islamic regime came to power in Khartoum, the United States and other Western governments had pressured it to stop providing refuge for terrorist organisations. Other governments in the region, such as those in Egypt, Syria, Jordan, and even Libya, targeted by some of these groups, increased their own pressure. At the same time, the Sudanese regime began to change. Although Turabi had been its inspiring leader, General Omar al Bashir, president since 1989, had never been completely under his control. So as external pressure rose, Bashir's followers began to displace Turabi's. The attempted assassination in Ethiopia of Egypt’s President Hosni Mubarak in June 1995 seems to have been a turning point. The future murderers, who came from the Egyptian Islamic group, had been protected in Sudan and helped by Bin Laden. When the Sudanese refused to hand over three people identified as involved in the murder plot, the UN Security Council passed a resolution criticizing their inaction and eventually sanctioned Khartoum in April 1996. A clear signal to Bin Laden that his days in Sudan were numbered came when the government advised him that it intended to yield to Libya's demands to stop giving refuge to its enemies. Bin Laden had to tell the Libyans who had been part of his Islamic army that he could no longer protect them and that they had to leave the country. Outraged, several Libyan members of Al-Qaeda and the Islamic Army of Shōra renounced all relations with him. Bin Laden also began to have serious money problems. International pressure on Sudan, along with pressures in the world economy, damaged Sudan's currency. Some of Bin Laden's companies were running low on money. As the Sudanese authorities became less binding, the normal costs of doing business increased. Even the Saudi pressure on the Bin Laden family probably took some toll. In any case, Bin Laden found it necessary both to reduce its expenditure and to monitor its expenditure more closely.
