| | State terrorism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | State terrorism, depending on its precise context, may include acts of violence or repression perpetrated by a national government or proxy states. | | | Citizens of Western nations are generally protected from unfair trial by constitutional or legislative safeguards and the requirements of due process, although recently in the United States, Supreme Court intervention was required to uphold such safeguards, as in the 2004 case of Hamdi v. | | | The Reign of Terror (June 1793 – July 1794), a period in the French Revolution characterized by brutal repression, was an early example of state terrorism in France. |

| | Time to Recognize State Terror - by John Pilger |
| | Only by recognizing the terrorism of states is it possible to understand, and deal with, acts of terrorism by groups and individuals which, however horrific, are tiny by comparison. | | | The thought that the state has lost its mind and is punishing so many innocent people is intolerable. | | | It is the British public's passionate indifference, if not contempt for the political games of Blair/Brown and their courts and its accelerating interest in the way the world really is, that unnerves those with power. |
