By the end of the '80s, however, that was beginning to dry up...the Russians realized that the Islamics were maniacs and that the Euros were slowly dying out on their own as they became dissolusioned.
After the fall of the Eastern Bloc, notice that in both Europe and Latin America, homegrown Terrorist groups have been either rolled up, shut down, or are moribund. Also, so-called "insurgencies" in Central America also weakened and died off.
After the Soviets fell, the only terr groups able to find signifigant funding and support were the Islamics, and to a much lesser extent, the IRA (sadly, theirs comes from the US, mostly from Irish-Americans with an incorrect, romantic view of the "boyos", and who know little or nothing of their communist ambitions).
The position of those who made descisions then (that the Soviets were primarily responsible for such destabilizing things as terrorism) was FAR from "paranoia", it was in fact correct. Unfortunately, after the smoke from the fall of the Soviets cleared, we were left with a President who had no idea or interest in what to do about Islamic terrorism, which essentially is all that was left.
