In-Depth Reports
The State Department's 1997 Patterns of Global Terrorism report lists five Middle Eastern states as sponsors of international terrorism: Iran, Iraq, Libya, Syria, and Sudan. The report does not enumerate the specific actions that earned each state inclusion on the list, however. This Research Note is intended as a complement to the report, providing details on the terror-related activities of four of the states in question: Iran, Libya, Syria, and Sudan.
