How important are the leaders of terrorist groups?

Nikki Christie gives you some tips on how to improve your grade when answering questions on the leaders of terrorist groups

Students find it relatively easy to recall and describe the various leaders of terrorist organisations, but find it more difficult to provide a real assessment of their importance rather than simply asserting their significance. This is partly due to the complex and secret nature of terrorist organisations which makes it difficult to trace operational decisions to individual leaders and partly due to the rumours and myths which surround leaders like Osama bin Laden.

To assess the impact of leaders within their own organisations you need to use the knowledge you have to make a series of evaluative judgements. At the same time, you need to accept that much of the information we have will be sketchy and often retrospective rather than contemporar y to events.
