WASHINGTON – A surge in the number of aggressive Al Qaeda affiliates and like-minded groups the Middle East and North Africa poses a serious threat to U.S. interests and allies, the State Department said Wednesday in reporting a more than 40 percent increase in terrorist attacks worldwide between 2012 and 2013.
The department also singled out Iran as a major state sponsor of terrorism that continues to defy demands it prove its atomic ambitions are peaceful even as Washington pursues negotiations with Tehran over its nuclear program.
The most lethal attacks in 2013 were conducted by the Taliban in Afghanistan, the Pakistani Taliban, Nigeria's Boko Haram, Al Qaeda in Iraq, Al Qaeda in Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant and Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula, according to the report.
[snip] Along with Iran, the 2013 report identified Cuba, Syria and Sudan as "state sponsors of terrorism," designations that remain unchanged from last year.

This yahoo send hundreds of millions of dollars in aid to the ‘Freedom fighters’ in places like Libya and Syria. We provided weapons as well. Al Qaeda was involved. What did we expect? Our new friends to cut back on their terrorism?
I’d say LOL, but it’s no laughing matter.
AQ UP!
Obama down.
When do they award him another Nobel?
Probably the result of a Youtube video.
Check with King Obama. He has the cure like he managed Al Qaeda and Benghazi.
But Obunghole assured us that they “were on the run”.
I don’t believe it. Our fearless leader told us they were in disarray and on the run. /s
It’s that strong horse thing again. Muzzies think the US is weak, thanks to our pussy in chief. That makes them more bold and willing to fight us.
Just another report from Inside Occupied America.
Exactly my thoughts when I read the headline.
This guy sure has won us friends around the world. /s
