Thousands of people have died at the hands of terrorist groups who
rely on state support for their activities. Iran and Syria are well
known as sponsors of terrorism, while other countries, some with
strong connections to the West, have enabled terrorist activity by
turning a blind eye. Daniel Byman's hard-hitting and articulate
book analyzes this phenomenon. Focusing primarily on sponsors from
the Middle East and South Asia, it examines the different types of
support that states provide, their motivations, and the impact of
such sponsorship. The book also considers regimes that allow
terrorists to raise money and recruit without providing active
support. The experiences of Iran, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Syria,
Saudi Arabia, and Libya are detailed here, alongside the histories
of radical groups such as al-Qaida and Hizballah. The book
concludes by assessing why it is often difficult to force sponsors
to cut ties to terrorist groups and suggesting ways in which it
could be done better in the future.
