FREE ESSAY ON TERRORISM

TERRORISM

As we are approaching the 21st century, it seems that terrorism is becoming another one of
society's constant problems. It has reached to an extent that most of us have now become
immune to it. We hear about the hijacking of different airplanes, kidnapping of
diplomatic officers, slaughter of innocent civilians by other civilians and what do we do
about it? Nothing. Due to some dirty fish, most of us do not protest anymore about
passing our luggage through metal detectors and submitting to searches at airports.
Some of us believe that terrorism is something that can not be controlled, just like
poverty, discrimination and crime, which is just there. On the other hand, some experts
believe that terrorism may be abolished if nations begin to follow a firm, non-tolerant
approach taken by countries like ________.
What do most terrorists really want? Well, terrorists in most instances first strike by
doing something vicious like bombing an area, so that the government and the citizens of
the country can be terrified of them. Then, they make their demands: _________, safe
passage or release of their fellow terrorists. The media and the citizens then want the
government to negotiate with their demands and give them whatever they want so that they
can go away. The situation stated above is quite common and will only encourage further
acts of terrorism. 
What can the government do to stop terrorism? *It can eliminate terrorism by showing the
terrorists some action and retaliation as act of self-defense. *It can exert political
pressure on nations that practice or support terrorism and refuse to trade with them. *It
can refuse to sell these nations any kind of _________ and/or military devices. It can
terminate ________ relations and close down their __________ in these nations. *Another
response would be using military action, which should not be ruled out in the case of
hijacking of ships or planes. These steps may have some good affects on other nations and
soon the rest shall follow them.
