Chalker of Wallasey, RtHonBaroness

Question
Whether the Prime Minister was correctly reported to have endorsed the attack on Baghdad by United States armed forces in 1993 in response to the alleged unsuccessful attack on ex-President Bush in Kuwait, opining that "state terrorism must be met with an unambiguous response and must be deterred by all proper and legitimate means", and whether there is any current intention of describing any particular governments as involved in, or responsible for, "state terrorism". - I refer the noble Lord to the answer I gave him on 7th July 1993 547 c65WA. It is not our practice to list states as sponsors of international terrorism.
