This article several time series of terrorist activity, namely of aircraft hijackings and political assassinations, are analyzed with emphasis on their stochastic behavior. It has been found that, based on the hijacking records of the U.S. As well as the whole world from 1968 through 1972, the occurrences of hijackings follow a Poisson process with an interesting time pattern in its intensity parameter. Results of analysis indicate that occurrences also follow a nonhomogeneous Poisson process
