A definition from the homepage of the TOR Project website would help readers understand what TOR is what the TOR Project is attempting to accomplish.

Tor is free software and an open network that helps you defend against A FORM OF NETWORK SURVEILLANCE that threatens personal freedom and privacy, confidential business activities and relationships, and state security known as traffic analysis.

In short, the TOR PROJECT attempts to ensure YOUR Fourth Amendment Rights are protected.

Tor and onion router networks have been encapsulated in most of the world.

Users can assume no level of anonymity when using these networks in US, Canada, UK, France, Germany, Belgium, Australia, NZ, Japan, China, Iran, and untold other numbers of countries.

That is why these terrorists are being caught through Tor.
