Country Reports on Terrorism 2004

The Department of State submits the Country Reports on Terrorism in compliance with Title 22 of the United States Code, Section 2656(f) (the "Act"), which requires the Department to provide Congress with a full and complete annual report on terrorism for those countries and groups meeting the criteria of Section (a)(1) and (2) of the Act. The State Department has focuse! d its own report to Congress on the issues in its mandate, renamed Country Reports on Terrorism: Assessing Countries and Providing Information on Terrorist Groups, rather than the previous Patterns of Global Terrorism publication. As of this year the National Counterterrorism Center (NCTC) assumes its prescribed role as the "shared knowledge bank" for data on global terrorism.

The report contains an overview, a chapter on "Global Jihad" and a chapter entitled "Building International Will and Capacity to Counter Terrorism", in addition to the regional and country reports themselves. The report also includes the list of designated Foreign Terrorist Organizations (FTOs), followed by a list of other selected terrorist groups also deemed of relevance in the global war on terrorism.
