Between 1975 and 1985, the ASALA claimed responsibility for more than fifty attacks, a number that goes up by ten or so if the actions of ASALA splinter groups are included.  Most ASALA and ASALA-affiliated acts of terrorism were aimed at Turkish diplomats or Turkish interests in the Middle East and Europe.  After a bombing at Paris' Orly Airport in 1983, the group began to split into competing factions and eventually disappeared altogether.  No major act of international terrorism was committed by ASALA between 1985 and 1997, but in the latter year, the Turkish Embassy in Brussels was bombed and a man called authorities claiming that the ASALA was responsible.  However, experts doubt the veracity of this claim, and no further ASALA activity is expected.  With the collapse of the Soviet Union, Armenia has become an independent, sovereign state, thereby fulfilling the major objective of most of the terrorists.  Former terrorists now find themselves in the government or the military (or perhaps fighting the Azerbaijanis in the contested province of Nagorno-Kabakh), rather than conducting a campaign of international violence from the shadows.  <br />

The Army for Iran's National Liberation was a terrorist group that only claimed one attack in its history. On May 17, 1983, a pair of bombs went off in Athens, Greece, one under a Syrian Embassy vehicle and one near a school that the children of Libyan diplomats were known to attend. The attacks caused no physical harm, and two groups claimed the bombings. The Army for Iran's National Liberation's claim expressed their desire to attack allies of Iran, which was then under the rule of the recently repatriated Ayatollah Khomeini. It can be inferred that the group sought to isolate the regime from two of its main allies, Syria and Libya. The group may have been comprised of anti-Khomeini Iranians in exile or perhaps Greeks showing sympathy to the anti-Khomeini cause.<br /><p><br />The other group to issue a claim, the Martyrs of Issam Sartawi, purportedly bombed the targets to avenge the death of Issam Sartawi, a Palestinian Liberation Organization leader that was assassinated by Palestinian extremist group Abu Nidal in April 1983 for his moderate views regarding Israel's right to exist.<br /><p><br />It remains unclear which of these two groups was actually responsible for the bombing.<br />
