ABSTRACT

The acts of terrorism are part of a broad campaign aimed at the disintegration of democratic societies through undermining the confidence of their citizenry in their governments. International terrorism is a special problem for democracies. The primary supporters of international terrorism are the Soviet Union and those states which the Soviets support the Warsaw Pact and the radical Arab camp. Modem terrorism is a form of "warfare by remote control" waged against free nations or against non-democratic but moderate states which dare to sympathize with freedom. When an act of terrorism occurs, and the odds are it will occur in one of the free countries, democracies should unite in sponsoring resolutions in the United Nations condemning the act. Indeed, the great need in the world today is for men and women who stand in the tradition of Jonathan Netanyahu — strong, dedicated, courageous, dependable.
