The answer to this question is (b). Since the end of the Cold War, the United States has become increasingly interested in preventing Middle Eastern terrorism. This is also due to its own national interests of protecting the US

B. the United States has become increasingly interested in preventing Middle Eastern terrorism.

US action in the Middle East has been spent fighting terrorist groups which have risen out of decolonization of the area.

As Cold War powers have left the Middle East, terrorist groups filled the vacuum with many of them blaming the US for their problems. The US has committed to fighting terrorists groups not only to protect US borders but also to protect economic interests and the people of the Middle East. The US has fought Al-Qaeda, ISIS, and other smaller terrorist groups.
