The U.S. government has expressed great concern about the threats of state-sponsored terrorism and weapons of mass destruction (most notably in Iraq, Iran, and North Korea) and terrorist-guerrilla movements. home and abroad, combining an updated general perspective on terrorism (including a historical introduction and theoretical discussion) with recent events and publications.
