"Diplomatic Dilemmas" delves into the shadowy world of state-sponsored terrorism, a contentious topic that has often been skirted around in diplomatic circles but holds profound implications for international relations. This comprehensive examination unravels the intricate web of political motivations, strategic objectives, and covert operations that define state involvement in acts of terror. Key facets of the book include: Historical Context: Tracing the evolution of state-sponsored terrorism, from ancient civilizations using subversion as a tool of statecraft to its manifestations in the modern geopolitical arena. Defining the Ambiguous: A critical examination of what constitutes state-sponsored terrorism, the blurred lines between support and direct involvement, and the challenges in establishing culpability. Case Profiles: Detailed explorations of well-documented instances where states have been accused of sponsoring terrorism, analyzing the motivations, operations, and global reactions. The Diplomatic Tightrope: Insights into the delicate balance nations strike when confronted with allegations of state-sponsored terrorism, and the broader implications for bilateral and multilateral relations. Tools of Covert War: A look into the methods states employ, from financing rebel groups and supplying weapons to providing logistical support and training. The Ripple Effect: Understanding the broader consequences of state-sponsored terrorism on regional stability, global peace, and the international legal framework. Navigating the Future: Speculations on emerging trends in state-sponsored terrorism and potential strategies for the international community to counteract and prevent such covert activities. "Diplomatic Dilemmas" offers a compelling narrative that bridges historical context with contemporary realities, making it an essential read for diplomats, scholars, security analysts, and anyone interested in the intricacies of international relations. By shining a light on the covert operations that often remain in the shadows, the book seeks to foster a deeper understanding of the challenges and ethical quandaries facing the global community in the pursuit of peace and security.

States that sponsor terrorism pose one of the greatest policy and security challenges of the 21st century. Over the past decade, the United States and coalition allies have invested over a trillion dollars in the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, both waged, in part, to end their support for terrorism. Iran's support for Hezbollah and Hamas makes negotiations over its nuclear program tremendously difficult and the prospect of an Iranian nuclear umbrella, under which these groups could operate, especially concerning. Likewise, Qaddafi's overthrow and the siege on Assad's regime in Syria have both been justified in the context of their historic support for terrorists, as well as the more recent normative concern for the repression of their people. This paper moves beyond a simple explanation of state sponsorship as covert war or way to persuade target states to concede policy objectives. Rather, it models state sponsored terrorism as a leader survival strategy that leaders choose when facing simultaneous internal and external threats. By investing a portion of the state's military power outside the control of the military and into terrorist groups and the security services that arm and train them, the leader is able to signal competency to other elites in his coalition and insulate himself from existing threats of coup d'état from the military while avoiding defeat in external conflict. Using a newly constructed dataset on state sponsorship that uses the leader-year (1968-2001) as the unit of analysis (N=5139), this study finds that many existing explanations for state sponsorship do not withstand empirical testing and that the combined level of high external threat and elevated threat of coup d'état are key determinants of a leader's decision to sponsor terrorist groups. This work has tremendous implications for US security policy as current practices, such as regime-targeted sanctions, may have the unintended effect of increasing the level of threat that the leader experiences and thus the likelihood of state sponsorship. These insights highlight a major reason why military strikes and economic sanctions are less successful than regime change for ending state sponsorship. Furthermore, it suggests that carefully reducing the external and internal levels of threat the leader faces may be the most effective method to end state sponsorship of terrorism.

Countries sponsoring and supporting terrorism impede the efforts of the United States and the international community to fight terrorism. Until states that support terrorism cease such sponsorship, they remain a critical foundation for terrorist groups and their operations. The purpose of this thesis is to examine the U.S. military's role in coercing states to cease their sponsorship of terrorism. Using game theory, this thesis analyzes the utility of military force against state-sponsored terrorism. It explains why past military responses did not pose a credible threat and were thus, an ineffective instrument of national power. It then examines how military force is employed in the current war on terrorism. The findings of this thesis suggest that the limited military strikes employed against states for their role in terrorist attacks prior to September 11, 2001, preconditioned the leaders of supportive states to believe U.S. leadership lacked commitment in its strategy to end state-sponsored terrorism. The findings also suggest the dramatic change in the United Stat method of employing its military forces against state sponsors of terrorism after September 11, 2001, created the credible, coercive military threat required to accomplish the U.S. national objective of ending state- sponsored terrorism.
