My goal was to study current definitions of terrorism and US
counterterrorism policy, identify possible shortcomings, and
propose solutions. I discovered basic problems, not only with
adequately defining terrorism, but with US government response to
one particular form of terrorism--state-sponsored international
terrorism. These problems stem from lack of a coordinated, clear
definition of state-sponsored international terrorism between US
agencies, and failure to attack the appropriate center of gravity
of state-sponsored terrorist organizations. I propose a new
definition of state-sponsored international terrorism which is more
specific and lends itself to clearer policy development;
furthermore, our counterterrorism policy should place more emphasis
on targeting the sponsoring state, rather than peripheral elements
of state-sponsored terrorist groups.
