? ? Input to Mr. Casey 17 Apr 84.
US citizens and facilities abroad are continually being
attacked by international terrorists. Such terrorism not only
harms our citizens and interests, but results in the
destabilization of friendly governments and the polarization of
societies whose stability and property are important to us. We
know that some terrorist groups are actively supported by foreign
governments.
We are stepping up our collection of intelligence on
terrorist groups
We are preparing capabilities to
neutralize, when and where possible, anti-American terrorist
groups which conduct hostile terrorist acts against US citizens,
interests, and property in this country and abroad. We intend to
continue to work closely with our friends and allies abroad in
these preparations and in their implementation. We intend to
make effective responses, using all lawful means, against the
perpetrators of such terrorist acts.
