The various normative fronts in the fight against terrorism and the limitations surround the concept

Abstract

The term "war on terrorism" is not a legal term, since by international law, for there to be a war, belligerent states must engage in armed conflict with each other. Therefore, although many states are engaged in the fight against terrorism, this fight only qualifies as war if and when there is a fighting state on the side of the terrorist organization, so there is nothing to prevent the "war on terrorism" from turning into an interstate war (CORDESMAN, 2018).
