Is Terrorism Taking over the World?

IS TERRORISM TAKING OVER THE WORLD?

Terrorism has become one of the most serious problems in the world today. The word terror comes from a Latin word meaning "fear". In the dictionary, its definition is "the use of violence for political purposes". But only one definition is accepted in the international basis which is "a symbolic activity requiring the usage of intimidation and threat for the purpose of causing impacts by the means of unnatural behaviours involving political expectation". Terrorism, is different from traditional political crimes such as murder, robbery or kidnapping.

There are three types of terrorism: Ideological terrorism, which is based on a terrorist's ideas or beliefs. Separatist terrorism and KADEK, KUK, and KAWA are the strongest separatist organisations. There is Religion Motivated terrorism as well, in which they struggle for their own religious beliefs and concepts.

There are many reasons why terrorism takes place, terrorists want to make people adopt certain points and behaviours, unfortunately for some strange reason they believe that an armed solution is the only way out. Terrorists, in general, hate humanity and human life; they are heartless, merciless, destructive and immoral. They also want to change the entire political system and destabilise the government by manipulating their social, national, racial, religious, economic and psychological differences.

Maybe, by hurting people in a violent way, they want to show and prove to people that their government has abandoned them and doesn't care. Thus, people start to believe them, their points of view on politics, religion and society.

These actions are based on creating fear and have a violent manner. Usually, their victims are innocent people - women and children, old people. They target their attacks on schools, theatres and mostly crowded places so that the number of deaths is higher. They threat their victims; they intimidate them, torture them and kill them. The target usually is defenceless and they are never aware of the danger that is coming to them, terrorists have their own rules, plans and aims. These plans and aims include a method of preparation - they prepare their "warriors of freedom" in training camps or fields, they brainwash them and so they are ready mentally and physically.
