A Multilateral Convention on Outlawing Incitement to Acts of Terrorism Under International Law
Abstract
Terrorist activities have occurred throughout history. In this paper, we study the relationship between incitement to violence, and recruiting, training or convincing others to commit acts of violence and the limitation on the right to free speech as determined by the Supreme Court and international tribunals. We advocate bringing accused perpetrators of such international crimes before the courts via universal jurisdiction and offer a solution: a multilateral convention providing for the rendition of suspects who have solicited or persuaded others to perform terrorist acts, whether or not the acts actually occur and are successful.
