US Senator Henry M. Jackson spoke at the 1979 Jerusalem Conference on International Terrorism on "Terrorism as a Weapon in International Politics".

The political philosophies and positions of Jackson, a Cold War anti-Communist, have been cited as an influence on a number of key figures associated with neoconservatism including Paul Wolfowitz and Richard Perle.

Re-classification of his papers

In 2005, twenty-two years after his death, US government officials, including three members of the CIA, seized and removed several of Senator Jackson's archived documents housed at the University of Washington. Though a team of the university's staff in 1983 removed all information considered classified at the time, the officials were verifying anything still considered classified, or reclassified since then, had been removed. The documents were pending declassification at the University as of March 2005.
