Terorists will always exist they just change names everynow and then from soldiers to bombers to rebels and freedom fighters, terorism isn't lead by Osoma Bin Laden it's a military tactic. It can be used to reduce the moral of the enemy and inflict a large amount of damage with limited supplies.

Wasnt Pearl Harbor considered a terrorist type attackNetYankEagle
I don't think so, it wasn't an attack on a civilian target so i don't think it classes as terrorism more of a hit and run or blitzkreig tactic. Strategic bombing could be seen as a terrorist style attack though on a much larger scale as the idea is to reduce civilian moral.

When islam becomes domesticated by secular western philosophy. Just like christianity.dmc333
.... you do know that not all terrorists are muslims right? There are Hindu terrorists in India, there were catholic and protostant terrorists in Northern Ireland, many groupds in Africa ccould be called terrorists.

Terrorism of all kinds will continue as long as man is a fallen, corrupt creature as Romans 1-3 speaks about. Islamic terrorism has gone on a millenia. Christian terrorism in the name of Christ, but against Christ's teachings, went on for centuries. Hindu terrorism is on the rise in a huge way. Atheistic terrorism still goes on in Africa and Central and South America.

exactly, (not the usa part) but those who do it in the name of islam dont even know the basics, as terrorism itself would be a major, major sin. killing of innocents, killing of fellow muslims and suicide are the 3 worst sins. it makes no sense in islam to do any of these and expect to go to heaven cos some idiot in a cave said so. the people who are the terorirsts must have no knowledge of proper islam.

Considering terrorism is the use of terror to intimidate I doubt it will ever end. Or began in 1961.

I guess you would be suprised at how organized terrorist groups are.

TSNAKE617
are you a terrorist if its for a good cause? John Brown is a misunderstood hero to some people


A good cause is a matter of opinion, to slave owners he was a terrorist.

not many people i know have ever referred to John Brown as a terrorist attack, no one even calls Pearl Harbor a terrorist attack the first time i recall hearing it was 9/11 t be completely honest

Terrorism will always exist. Since data of war, there has been terrorism. The problem is that the new idea of "terrorist" was coined to make people look more guilty and be able to point them easily, without knowing cause of actions.

No, Pearl Harbor was an attack on the combatants of another nation, so it wasn't a terrorist attack. And terrorism existed long before 1961. Hebrew zealots committed terrorism in an effort to stop the Roman occupation of Israel, not to mention the Gunpowder Plot of 1605.

The IRA before 1969 fought a guerilla war, no terrorist acts were implemented by them. After 1969 and the split within the IRA The PIRA and OIRA fought a war against British rule which was started when britsh forces opened fire on unarmed Nationalist civilians. during the height of the troubles the PIRA luanched a Bombing campaign in England to force a settlement on the Norths politically unstable situation as British government had failed many times before. it was a war caused by the British and as propaganda it was deemed terrorist. the British were the terrorists, simple.

I believe as long as there are nation-states seeking to influence other nation-states by foreign occupations, extremist people and technology there will be terrorism. Anybody willing to kill themselves for a cause can take some people out. The more globalization reaches out and technology makes the inequalities obvious the more people will be willing to die for equality. If we don't take on the root as world problem not a US problem it will only get worse.

Also as long as there is a Government there will be an Anti-Government. Its really just nature for peoples opinions to clash, sadly people haven't grasped the concept that murdering people for usually your own selfish reasons (and if your murdering innocent people, it usually is selfish), or beliefs (beliefs that apparently tell people to strap bombs to themselves and throw themselves into large groups of women and children). In the end there is no just cause for killing women and children because they don't share your opinion.

There must be an absense of injustice in order to rid the world of "terrorism." And by injustice I mean greed.

Well terrorism is a lie that is created by the number one country in the world to expand its military bases in some third world countries and take advantage of its natural resources. Most of those who claim to commit such crimes in the name of Islam don't know the basics of Islam sadly.gamingqueen

You may want to revise that statement.

The British were just in a sticky spot, they didn't really care if they lost Nothern Ireland but they didn't want there to be bloodshed which there would have been if it was suddenly united.

Terrorism has been around before humans started to record history. It's not ever going away. After 9/11, we have the "war on terror". Which is just an excuse for more war.

couldn't you consider Hitler or Stalin terrorists? Just because they're not radical Islamics waving Ak's in the air doesn't make them anything else. There's no "terrorist era". As long as there are people wanting to destroy the world or do something like it, they are "terrorists" by the common definition. And there has always been people like that, therefore, the "terrorist era" will never end. Sadly to say.

well said. Let's say a country invades the USA and a few brave people decide to fight that invading country back. Are they gonna be considered terrorists? In the other country yes, but here no. They're simply defending their country. That logic can be used with the insurgents in Iraq. They really have every right to fight back in all honesty.

Where there is organized civilization, there will be terrorism to undermine it.

Terrorism is the tool of the oppressed and weak in the face of adversity and suffering. I personally disagree with it entirely but it has no true beginning. Where there are bad governments, there are terrorist groups willing to take them down and establish new regimes.
