nvestigating the Crime of Terrorism, the Legal Method for Confronting it by Law and Ways to Deal with it from the Point of View of Iranian and Iraqi Legislators

Abstract

The term "post-terrorism" in Iraqi legal texts refers to the legal conceptualization of "terrorism," which is closely linked to organized crime. This involves a group engaged in illegal activities, working in collusion with the goal of obtaining financing, benefits, and power. Conflict, in this context, involves hostility and the use of weapons, resulting in severe political violence.
Key issues addressed include the causes of terrorism, such as ideological nationalism, poverty, religious and ethnic differences, and the pursuit of justice. The text emphasizes the need to uphold human dignity, promote brotherhood, and assist others, while also addressing the legal frameworks that govern these issues. It discusses legal principles such as the collective prohibition of terrorism, the violation of fundamental human rights, and the impact of terrorism on general rights and obligations in Iran and Iraq.
The research analyzes how terrorism prevention laws in Iran and Iraq are similarly constructed, focusing on the cessation of terrorism and the associated sanctions. The study concludes that the most effective solutions for preventing terrorism in both countries rely on comprehensive preventive approaches that address the root causes of terrorism. These approaches include enacting effective, deterrent laws that prevent the conditions conducive to terrorism.
Additionally, the research highlights that the punishment for terrorism-related crimes in Iran and Iraq is heavily influenced by specific legal texts, often involving severe penalties such as the death penalty, especially when considering the nature of the crime and the individuals involved. This legal framework aims to effectively combat and manage terrorism.
