Did Wilkinson himself say the following quote? need to spell that out.

Wilkinson taught the terrorism course which was aimed at influencing future state and corporate personnel: "I would hope that our graduates would put their training to good use in government, industry, the armed forces, the Foreign Office or the law."

In the following, I wasn't sure what "state prescription" in this context meant. Does it mean that the state defines who is a terrorist and who is not? Haven't they always done that? This may be my denseness speaking but I think if I don't understand it, others may not, too.

It recommended the use of state prescription of terrorist organisations - a key mechanism used by states to condemn acts of terrorism committed by enemies whilst exonerating allies.
