Terror
What is a terrorist? Well the denotation of this word is as follows, somebody who uses violence or the threat of violence, especially bombing, and assassination, to intimidate, often for there own purpose. By this definition, government personals are not excluded from being a "terrorist" or participating in "terrorism". Actually many government's activities are equivalent to those more world renown ones in according to the direct dictionary definition of "terrorism". This is because media more often than not is on the government's side, so they don't criticize their government because it is this government that bails them out in hard times such as September 11th. To strike back for the tragedy that took place on September 11th governments have come together to join and create a coalition and call there mission "The fight against terrorism" to answer to the actions carried out on September 11th. This title makes very little sense? Due to fact that the method these "anti terrorist" groups are using are identical to those that are used by people classified as a "terrorist". Sidney Sheldon wrote in his book Sands of time, the only difference between the terrorist and the government is that, one is in power and the other one
This war, as it is being fought to the nail, will not make a better, safer place. It will make it far more dangerous. Indeed, one can argue about the justification of indiscriminate and excessive bombing on the poor, drought stricken and already 20 years long war torn people. In the beginning of the current military conflict between America and Afghanistan, it was stated that civilian casualties would try to be avoided. Then what circumstances forced this newly formed coalition against Afghanistan for incessant droppings of heavy bombs. "Whereas, I believe, perhaps the bombing won't last that long as there aren't enough large pieces of rubble left in Afghanistan worth smashing into small pieces of rubble" (1) but that does not appear to be the case here. It is sad to see the American government make the same foolish mistakes as their allies, the government of Israel. Both are killing innocent civilians with no one to answer to. So where is the U.N or the "peacemakers" of this world when they are called upon? The more they have killed the more "terrorism" for these countries have escalated. It is difficult to find the roots of the Israeli and the Palestinians conflict just as it is to answer the famous question "what came first the chicken or the egg?" So who is to say what happened on September 11th was any different in finding the cause. The bombings are being showered on the head of innocent civilians and this is making a bad situation worst in regards to food or the lack of it. "Food Program says Afghanistan needs 250,000 metric tones of food to get through the winter"(2). Not every sack of grain needs to be distributed to stockpiles before the snows come next month. Parts of the country will still not be accessible. Nonetheless "the most c
