I am looking for:
1)  An "internationally accepted" terrorist organization list as
defined by an international organization such as the United Nations

2) I am also looking for links to as many country terrorist
organization lists as possible (I have already found the US, UK,
Canadian and Australian lists).  Please find the country lists for 
Japan, China, France, Germany, Russia, Spain, Italy, any Arabic
country lists and any additional countries lists.

Can you post links to the lists you have found already?  These will
assist us in our research.

Thanks.

Hi  politicalguru,

If you can answer the second question, that would be enough for me.
Don't worry about the first part.

Thanks,
Yaron

About the United Nations:
"The 15-member Counter-Terrorism Committee (CTC) was established at
the same time to monitor implementation of the resolution. While the
ultimate aim of the Committee is to increase the ability of States to
fight terrorism, it is not a sanctions body nor does it maintain a
list of terrorist organizations or individuals"
(http://www.un.org/sc/ctc/)

Dear YB, 

You have two questions. I can only answer one (the second). As for the
first question, I don't think that you'll ever find an agreed-upon
list, from an organisation such as the UN. The UN is exposed to all
kinds of political pressures that would eliminate such a list. The
abovementioned committee deals mostly (if not only) with Al-Qaeda and
Al-Qaeda related organisations/indioviduals, and the list is such a
list.

If you 'll post your questions separately, I may be able to answer the
second, leaving the first to someone who'd manage to convince the UN
to compile such a list.
