[...] l'attentat comporte deux éléments fondamentaux : une action de la part de son auteur et un but répréhensible. Les exemples classiques donnés sont les attentats contre les souverains [...] Sans que ce soit énoncé expressément, l'attentat demeure un attentat, qu'il soit réussi ou non. [...] l'opprobre vise plus précisément le geste que le résultat. Lorsqu'on conjugue les données [...] l'attentat à la vie est donc un geste qui a pour but, atteint ou non, de mettre fin à la vie d'une personne. 1, record 1, French, - attentat%20%C3%A0%20la%20vie
