I personally find it implausible, but I suppose it's not impossible.

1) Terrorism

What cause and what grievances? There are no fundamentalist Muslims here. There are lots of rather fundamentalist Christians, but they aren't violent, just ... wonky.

2) Organized Crime

The economy is really too small for crime organizations to bother with.

3) Drug Production

Possible, but the logistical problems are huge. S.I. doesn't export anything in any significant quantity except round logs anywhere, so ships leaving the islands are always highly visible.
