Summarize, with citations, at least four different definitions of terrorism.
The definitions must come from sources such as:
U.S. government agencies (such as FBI, DOJ, CIA, DOD, DHS, DOS, DIA, NSA).
International agencies or foreign governments (such as United Nations, England, Israel).
Terrorism experts (such as Bruce Hoffman, Walter Laqueur, Brian Jenkins, Paul Pillar).
Compare and contrast two of the four definitions summarized in Question 1.
Provide a rationale for the differences between the two definitions based upon the context of the people, governments, and organizations that developed the definition.
Select one of the four chosen definitions of terrorism that you believe most accurately defines terrorism.
Recommend at least one change or enhancement that you would make to the definition. Provide a rationale for your response.
Create your own personal comprehensive definition of terrorism. Identify the key criteria inherent in your personal definition, and explain their importance.
