The Jerusalem Conference on International Terrorism was convened by the Jonathan Institute on 2-5 July 1979 at the Jerusalem Hilton Hotel. It was attended by about 700 guests, almost entirely citizens of UK, US and Israel, but with some other Western Europeans.[1][2]

Official Narrative

The conference was not widely reported at the time.

Purposes

Tom Secker notes that it is where the ideology of the current "War on Terror" was conceived.[3]

The conference featured: "pre-emptive attacks on states that are alleged to support 'terrorists'; an elaborate intelligence system apparatus; slashed civil liberties, particularly for Palestinians targeted as potential terrorists, including detention without charge, and torture; and propaganda to dehumanize 'terrorists' in the eyes of the public. George H. W. Bush Sr. and ... George Schultz, Reagan’s Secretary of State enthusiastically endorsed this concept. Bush Sr. gave a speech at JCIT advocating precisely the type of ‘‘war on terror’’ that his son implemented in 2001."[4]
