Abstract
The graphic display of terrorist incidents portrays a chronological listing of terrorist incidents; terrorist incidents by type, group, and number; and a U.S. map of terrorist incidents. Terrorist incidents are compared by targets, type, terrorist group, number of terrorist incidents, number killed and injured, bombings, and region. A review of the terrorist groups responsible for domestic terrorism focuses on Puerto Rican terrorist groups, Jewish terrorist groups, and Aryan Nation affiliates. The review of major accomplishment of the U.S. terrorism program addresses both international and domestic terrorism. The analysis of terrorism in the U.S. for 1980-86 profiles the geography of terrorism in the U.S., prevention efforts, and international and domestic terrorist threats in the U.S.
