Download or read book State Support of International Terrorism written by John F. Murphy and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-10-02 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Few would dispute that a major factor contributing to the world community's difficulties in combatting international terrorism is the lack of cooperation among states. This failure to act in concert is tantamount to state support of international terrorism because it fosters a milieu in which terrorism flourishes. This is not the kind of state support of international terrorism, however, that has captured the headlines, which instead focus on the terrorism that has become a kind of surrogated warfare, used as a substitute for more conventional means. States unfriendly to the United States and other Western democracies especially follow this path. Taking a broader view, some have alleged that the U.S. government itself is a major sponsor of international terrorism. Those observers cite as examples the U.S. training and financing of the Contras and the Central Intelligence Agency's role in preparing training manuals endorsing the assassination of Nicaraguan civilians, the provision of arms to Iran in exchange for hostages, and the unconditional provision of military assistance to Israel despite its "terrorist" policies against Palestinians in the occupied territories. It will not be the purpose of this book to explore the evidence to evaluate the correctness of these charges ... The thesis of this book is that state support of terrorism is illegal and immoral, whatever state engages in such actions. The effort, in other words, is to approach the subject of state support of international terrorism in as impartial a manner as possible. My goal is to suggest definitions of "international terrorism," "state support," and "state sponsorship" that in no way depends on political ideology...A concluding chapter sets forth my conclusions and my recommendations." --

Download or read book Multilateral Counter Terrorism written by Peter Romaniuk and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2010-04-05 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contemporary terrorism is a global phenomenon requiring a globalized response. In this book Peter Romaniuk aims to assess to what extent states seek multilateral responses to the threats they face from terrorists. Providing a concise history and a clear discussion of current patterns of counter-terrorist co-operation, this book: analyses a wide spectrum of institutions from the United Nations and its various bodies to military, intelligence and law enforcement agencies explains the full range of cooperative counter-terrorist activities and the patterns across them, from the use of intelligence and military force to criminal law measures, financial controls and diplomacy examines under what conditions states cooperate to suppress terrorism evaluates how existing international institutions been affected by the US-led "global war on terror," launched after the 9/11 terrorist attacks. The book contests that the whilst there are several notable examples of successful counterterrorism cooperation, past and present, this work suggests that the broader trend can only be understood if we accept that across the domains of counter-terrorism policy, cooperation often resembles a competition for influence over outcomes. Multilateral Counter-terrorism is an essential resource for all students and scholars of international politics, criminology and terrorism studies.
