Terrorism
has in the recent times been a major concern to many countries and
more and more countries are taking steps to protect their citizens
against falling victim to terrorist attacks. The concern for
terrorism has even made colleges to start offering lessons on the
issue and for those studying terrorism in class, they are often asked
to write a college essay on terrorism. An example of
such an essay can be as follows
Terrorism implies
the policy of making people have fear by using violence means.
Terrorists believe that the only way to achieve what they want is to
use violent once they have struck fear in the minds of their victims.
Terrorism is a barbaric act that in the recent times has become the
order of the day. The perception among many people is that those who
result to acts of terrorism are those who are disgruntled because
they feel like they are unable to have their desires fulfilled by
following the channels that have been laid out and accepted by the
society. There are many causes for terrorism some of which seem
genuine. An example of a cause that seems genuine is that which is
done to support some other people to get out of bondage or the fight
for freedom. For instance, when Nelson Mandela was leading fellow
South Africans to fight for the nation’s freedom, he was labeled a
terrorist even though he was fighting for his right and fighting
against oppression. One thing that most people agree with is that
even when the cause is genuine, people should exhaust other methods
first before resorting to terrorism.
