Content: The domestic trial proved to be insufficient to identify those who had given the instructions. Types of support
Ideological support
Ideological support is when a terrorist organization is used to spread a state's ideology. Examples of countries who have used this tactic include the Soviet Union and Iran; terrorist organizations founded by these two countries helped spread their respective revolutionary ideologies of communism and Islamic fundamentalism in different countries. Hezbollah is one such organization. Palestinian Islamic Jihad, on the other hand, courted Iran's sponsorship by adopting their ideology in exchange for material aid. These organizations receive some form of indoctrination from the sponsor state, whether it be political, religious, or ideological. By country
Afghanistan
Afghanistan's KHAD is one of four secret service agencies accused of terrorist bombing in Pakistan North-west during the early 1980s; then by late 1980s U.S state department blamed WAD (a KGB created Afghan secret intelligence agency) for terrorist bombing Pakistani cities. Between the 1970s and the 1990s, Afghanistan security agencies supported the terrorist organization called al-Zulfiqar, the terrorist group that in 1981 hijacked a Pakistan International Airlines plane from Karachi to Kabul.
