Yes, resilience if it is a fringe group. What if they are products of the state sponsorship? For instance, Pakistan uses terrorism as a state policy; the end result is, terrorists end up blowing the very hands that feed them. What if the terrorism is a result of the indirect state sponsorship? For instance, Saudi and the US have played a role in Sunni Terrorism. ISIL, Taliban and Al queda are sunni terorism groups. Some or another have sponsored them in the past. Even Hamas is a sunni group, but their main sponsor is Shiites of Iran.
