Publication Type: Poster Abstract: A common statement made about terrorist groups targeting the United States is that they have a strong resentment for America; the value system and culture that America represents—wealth, power and democracy—may invoke emotional reactions from other countries that hold different beliefs. However, it seems equally plausible that many attacks aimed at the United States are strategic; a strong attack on the United States is likely to result in considerable international press coverage. In this paper we examine 3166 terrorist attacks from 1970 to 1997 aimed at the U.S. homeland or at U.S. interests in other countries from the recently developed Global Terrorism Data base. This analysis provides information on 405 groups that attacked the U.S. during the period spanned by the data. We use Latent Growth Curve analysis to examine the developmental trajectories of terrorist strikes against the U.S. over time. We use the results to examine the extent to which attacks reflected strategic actions taken by specific groups to further their political goals.
