TERRORISM
“Terrorism has been practiced throughout history and throughout the world. ... ” (Internet reference) The above-mentioned are just two of the many terrorist acts not typically considered to be terrorism.
So, what is terrorism? ... When defining the term we tend not to ask the following: Does terrorism need to involve the killing of many people or can it affect just one person? ... Can governments commit acts of terrorism, or is the term reserved only for people who operate outside of governments? Must terrorism involve the people of one country attacking citizens of another country? ... Does terrorism need to be intentional? Many of us limit ourselves to the belief that terrorism only involves the people of one country attacking those of another.
This is the case today; post 9-11 and with the strong media influence most have been brainwashed into associating terrorism with the “cowardly acts” committed by a group of people against the government and citizens of either their own or foreign country.
