state-sponsored terrorism  

Définition

  • Despite profound concerns over the growing lethality of terrorist acts committed by independent nonstate actors, far greater acts of destruction are possible when states assist terrorists. Indeed, many perceive that the most daunting threat facing society today is state assistance in terrorist acquisition of a weapon of mass destruction (WMD)—for example, a nuclear weapon.
