Essay / Research Paper Abstract
This is a 30 page paper studying five terrorist groups: their history, ideology, acts of terrorism and current status. The study of five terrorist groups, the Action Directe (AD), the North Korean Communist Group, the Islamic Jamiat-i-Talaba (IJT), the Dashmesh Regiment, and the Red Army Fraction (RAF) shows the extent extremists will go to further their causes in both the domestic and international arena. The Action Directe (AD) in France and the Red Army Fraction (RAF) in Germany were mostly active in the 1970s and 1980s when many of their leading members were imprisoned. Although not directly linked with any recent terrorist actions, the members of the AD and RAF are still actively associated with radical or political groups today. The North Korean Communist Group is considered one of the most viable terrorist threats of today as they are large, well-funded, still torture political prisoners and are believed to still manufacture nuclear, chemical and biological weaponry contrary to international agreements. The Islamic Jamiat-i-Talaba (IJT) as the student based affiliated of the political party Jamiat-i-Islami (JI) in Pakistan wish for the education of Islamic youth and for the formation of an Islamic state free of all Western deviant and capitalist influences and continue violent protests to promote this ideal. The recent war on terrorism against the Taliban in Afghanistan has led the IJT to believe that the increase in martyrs for their cause will only increase their recruitment for their group. Finally, the Dashmesh Regiment or 10th Regiment in Pakistan and India wish for a separate Sikh state called Khalistan which is currently on land in India. They have formed alliances with other national and international terrorist groups with the intent of getting their cause well known and have been responsible for several international acts of terrorism. Although their group was diminished when the Indian forces captured many of their leaders, international Sikh supported organizations have been formed in their place to continue their cause.

(AD), the North Korean Communist Group, the Islamic Jamiat-i-Talaba (IJT), the Dashmesh Regiment, and the Red Army Fraction (RAF) shows the extent extremists will go to further their causes in
both the domestic and international arena. The European based Action Directe (AD) in France and Red Army Fraction/Baader Meinhof (RAF) group in
Germany both began with Marxist ideals and beliefs that radical actions against Western and capital based organizations and politicians would further their cause against imperialism. Both the AD and RAF
were relatively small groups but their support continued even after imprisonment of their leading members and many of the supporters are still active in politics today. Their violent actions seem
to have been ceased under the AD and RAF groups for the moment but many of the members have become affiliated with other radical groups and continue to associate with
old members of the organizations. The North Korean Communist Group has also not been directly associated with a terrorist action for about
fifteen years although it is still considered a substantial threat. Part of the reason for the ongoing threat of the North Korean Communists is that the oppression of their own
citizens continues and also the continued torture of tens of thousands of political prisoners. The North Koreans are heavily funded through Red Army Communists in Japan and also continue support
and association with terrorist groups in Afghanistan and Pakistan. With a large support and financial base, it is believed that contrary to international agreements, the North Koreans continue to manufacture
nuclear, chemical and biological weaponry which makes them a considerable threat to non-Communist countries. The student activist group Islamic Jamiat-i-Talaba (IJT) and
