Unit VI Essay

Transnational Terrorism

For this assignment, write an essay at least 500 words in length that discusses the affiliations between domestic terrorists
and transnational terrorists. A point to consider is how the threats have migrated outside of Al-Qaeda and the nations of
Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran, Pakistan, and Somalia.

Traditionally, transnational terrorism groups are classified as heterogeneous groups, foreign fighters, and suicide
bombers. Pick at least one terrorist group that fits the classification of transnational terrorism. Conduct research to provide
an overview on the affiliations between your chosen group and domestic terrorist groups. How do these affiliations
between your chosen terrorist groups relate to the various types of terrorist cells, the chain network, and terrorist
organization models? You must use at least two sources in addition to the textbook.

Please be sure to use headings and subheadings, as needed, to organize your paper and viewpoints. Follow APA style
guidelines. The title and reference page do not count towards the minimum word length requirements. An abstract is not
required.
