The word "terrorism" is the "use" for that tactic. It is to generate general terror within the populace. There is no humanitarian thought process at all.

Answer 6

Jesus is coming to save the world from total destruction. People say Bush is a christian. What I have learned by studying the bible is he is nowhere close. Jesus wants us all to get along and be peaceful and prosper, to love our neighbors and follow the 10 commandments. We are heading into the end times and there will be a terrible price to pay. Even most Christians do not follow the true 10 commandments, because they have been lied to. Russia is building up their military our world is in a mess.

Answer 7

You are wrong when you say we are part of  civilised society. We have inherited by birth a nation invaded by islamic terrorists.    Hindus earn Muslims loot. Hindu  leaders close their eyes and only eye for vote banks.They see only sufferings of muslims their just or unjust demands.

Answer 8

Your question may seem a very generic question when thought with a shallow vision, but this question is a very solid one if thought and acted upon. I would like to answer your questions in  serial ;

1. There is no use of killing innocent people. Now why would one kill an innocent? When someone kills someone, he has a bitter perception for the other person from his side. This perception for him is always logical, as they think so. Now why or what makes them think so, "INPUTS". The way Indian Media is behaving right now seems very very disgusting and helpless. INPUTS - as i say them (perceptions) are fed to them through the so called guards called MEDIA. No ethic are followed by the MEDIA, just for the sake of being the BEST MEDIA Agency. That is very irresponsible, the way they showed the Krishna Commision report evidences were really shocking. Anyone after seeing those contents would be surely encouraged to go mad.

2. The best way as on an urgent basis is to control the contents of the MEDIA its really reckless as of now. This gives the repurcussions which go on for a long time and encourages such inhumane  attempts. They are selling the communal difference at their level best to make one community happy for a day and then another for another day, forgetting the fact that what they are doing is not democratic but totally irresponsibe. They dont even think that the so called neutral reports\documentaries shown by  them would be watched by a 5 year old, a 10 year old, a 20 year old, a 40 year old and a 60 year old. All these are obviously going to react with theeir capacity of thinking, and not everyone has a democratic and broad and humanitarian thinking.

3. The best way to eliminate this on urgent basis is to control the media, talk to the hardliners as far as we can just to make them feel acknowledged. When they are not addressed and acknowledged they do such things.

It really hurts to go through such dissappointing acts of a bunch of coward people with a rapidly growing democracy like India. The value of Independence is shattered by such incedences. I wish India gets Independence as soon as possible from such barbaric deeds.

Answer 9

What these so called terrorists are doing is that they try to attract attention by causing such cowardly acts. They donot value human lives and wrongly think that by doing this they can serve this purpose and make others do what they think is right

Answer 10

WE do not have the spine to do the right thing and they(terrorist) know it.

Stop wishing it away, take the d**n head of the butt and DEAL WITH IT. DElay is dangerous.

Answer 11

Terrorism is a way to raise fear among mainstream cistizens (hence the term "terrorism"), so that they in turn will apply pressure on governments and other orgainizational institutions, in order change the views and actions of the opponent regime. The motivations of terrorists can vary wildly. Some believe, in some cases rightly, in other cases wrongly, that there is no process in place for them to make their views known and that terrorism is the only way that they can have an influence on the processes and events that determine how they will live. Some terrorists have a legitimate case that the views of their particular group, ethnicity, religion, etc. are not taken into account. In other cases the terrorists willfully ignore the means that are available to make their case, in order to avoid negotiation or compromise.

Interestingly, many of the so-called Jihadists that are filling the news today are not by the above definition, strictly speaking, terrorists. Many of Jihadists carry out their violent acts not merely in the hope of influencing public opinion, but in fact to try to erradicate all people who do not belong their particular sect. There is no change of opinion sought, or hope of influencing events. The Jihadists, as unbelievable as it sounds, are bent on carving out a theocratic Moslem state, and in their minds are actually at war, over the long term, to destroy Western civilation, as opposed to simply trying to right some perceived injustice. There are some interesting books on this, such as The War of Ideas by Walid Phares.

In any case, terrorists kill and maim innocent people or destroy their property in hopes that the blame for the acts come to rest on govenment and other ruling bodies. People cannot directly make terrorists stop what they do, and so they must attempt to influence their own governments to influence events.

To the terrorist mind the civilian casualties along the way are perfectly acceptable because (a) ordinary citizens are deemed to consent to the actions of their governments by not opposing them and (b) the deaths of innocent people are no less heinous than the perceived calamaties that their own people have suffered under the status quo. In some terrorist credos, especially religious ones, the deaths of innocent people are not only acceptable, but required.

Terrorism is also useful for sabotaging and disorganizing society in general and stymying the efforts of governments to improve infrastructure and make lives better for their citizens, thus applying another level of pressure on the government.

Terrorism also aims to destroy the values of the society that it attacks. Fear generated by terrorism make people more willing to give up their freedoms and compromise on their egalitarian and democratic views for their own self protection. This allows the the target government to become a little more totalitarian, and in the eyes of the terrorists gives them more arguments to recruit people to their cause. Sadly terrorism has succeeded in many ways in this respect.

On how to eliminate instances of terrorism in the future: First of all, total elimination of terrorism will never happen, as the views of some people are simply so extreme that they will never be satisfied that the need for terrorism has ended. However terrorism can be tackled on meny different fronts. On the military front, it is important to bring as *little* force as possible to bear, in order to minimize civilian casualties as a result of your own terror-fighting efforts. The job of military, in many situations, is much more to win the support of people rather than simply killing terrorists, and that is where the emphasis needs to be placed.

Another front on the "war on terror" (a misnomer if there ever was one) that doesn't get talked about much is on the law enforcement and intelligence fronts rather than the military front. If there is any place that large amounts of money should be spent on directly erradicating terrorism, it is in these areas, rather than on the largely wasteful, useless, and counterproductive military option. It is much more important to learn how to find terrorists and bring them to justice than to militarily devastate the countries in which they live, along with their innocent countrymen.

On the political front, it is important bring the various ethnic, religious and national groups who support terrorists genuinely into the politcal process in order to give them some leverage in making their views effectively known. This is not "caving in" to terrorists, it is righting a wrong that occurs everytime an entire people are blocked from any say in the political process. By that means, people begin to have hope and begin to remove their support for the terrorists that claim to represent them.

On the economic front, genuine open trade, rather than the "free" or "fair" trade espoused by many governments, would go a long way toward providing more opportunity around the world. People with nothing to lose are more willing to support terror. People with hope for the future, and with achievements and gains they are interested in protecting, are more willing to talk and less likely to support bombers and killers.

In short, there is a lot that governments can do in the way of curbing many of the dismissive policies that have angered so many people around the world. For every 10 thousand or 100 thousand angry people in any part of the world, you can bet that a few of them will either become terrorists or begin to support terrorists. Until governments stop ignoring this fact, terrorism is not going away anytime soon.

Answer 12

Why don't you ask the extremist muslims that question? You can't ask them on the internet because they don't own laptops in the caves they crawl around in.

Answer 13

Ummm well I don't think you can ever eliminate it, because, you see they are wacko.....

Answer 14

our bombs do not hit "innocent"people

Answer 15

This is a way for the fanatical to instill fear into those who want to be just left alone and to live their lives as they  can.

Answer 16

If you're talking about our military, I don't think they ever try to kill innocent people on purpose.  But if your talking about terrorist and their suicide bombs, well just think about it.  They're brainwashed into believing what they're doing is right.  It's very sad.

Answer 17

they dont care about people, they just want everybody to be scared of them....so they can get their way

Answer 18

When was the last time Muslims were accused of being civilized?  Seriously, you're trying to project western values on people who have an entirely different view of the world.. it won't work.

Answer 19

Terror campaigns are all that is left to people who have been overwhelmed by military force. We bring terror down on them and they give it back. Do you think the oppressed people will just let a foreign invader rest? Think about what happened here in the Americas. There was Cochise and Sitting Bull and Red Cloud and many, many more who are nameless. They took terror to the invading pioneers. Terror was the cheapest and most effective thing they could do. Each event dramatized the conflict. Each event killed a few settlers and scared the rest. Terror was cheap and possible warfare in the face of overwhelming numbers and advanced technology.

The same is going on today in Iraq and Palestine. The invaders and occupiers of these places invite terror by being closed to the rights and customs of the dominated people.

The use of bombs in public places is practical. It is a way to carry on the war without the huge cost that supports our oppressive presence.

The utility is obvious if you know anything about war.

The way we stop it is to stop the terror we contribute. We need to quit supporting terror. We need to quit practicing terror. We need to quit supporting terrorist invaders like the Israelis.

Peace is the way. When we quit, they will quit. we have to have the courage to provide leadership.

Answer 20

Usually such action is the way the weak fight the strong, and it's quite effective. So it is war by other means that conventional arms and tactics, since that's the only way for the weak to fight back when faced with a much stronger adversary.

I don't know that it can be eliminated unless all strong forces stop pushing around weak forces. Sounds like a tall order, knowing human nature as we do. But keep your fingers crossed.

Good question!!

Answer 21

'Terrorism' is intended to have psychological effects beyond the immediate victims, intimidating or otherwise affecting the behaviour of a much wider and larger audience!Publicity is what they hunger for.The modern media has helped them emerge as a new and uncontrollable force.

Only a civilized person would have 'empathy' for others.Those who are standing monuments of shame and disgrace to humanity, would have no respect for human soul!

What regard has he for his Lord? How could he let the human being, created in the image of the God , to be, maimed and mangled by his bomb blast?

The terrorist has no religion nor he does act for his religion!

Since people could not forgt what they have learnt long ago,

many  believe that  "terrorism comes into being whenever people are most exploited and most cruelly   oppressed! 'Under this pretext, misanthropes brain wash the youth with no formal education and let them do bravado deeds.

The government of the country is solely responsible to identify them and take preemptive action against them.

And the sole aim of the terrorist is to make people fear.. If only people have a high sense of morale and do not get intimidated,  then terrorists would die unnatural death.
