Terrorism, according to the oxford dictionary is the use of violent action in order to achieve political aims or to force a government to act, and the individuals involve in the violent action referred to above are known as terrorist. Terrorists in their usual state are desperate and recalcitrant in every way. In anxiety to what they want, they do anything to get whatever they want in any way, ways that at most times include illegal protest, robbery, kidnapping, suicide bombing, man slaughtering, murder, which at the end of the day in most cases result in loss of lives, properties and other valuables of both the innocent ones and guilty ones. No doubt about this, terrorisms has become one of, if not the most common problem faced by most countries in the world today, involving group of people, settlements, harmlets, villages, communities, towns, cities, states and countries both the underdeveloped, developing, and the developed ones. They face this as a result or reason best know to them as the terrorised victim.
According to Josef
Another instant of terrorist attack includes "The reign of Terror" popularly known as "The Terror" an era of violence we are meant to know started on September 5, 1793 and ended on July 28, 1794. This was during th French revolution. The action evolved due to the conflict between between Girondins and the Jacobins which resulted into mass execution, during this course 16, 594 lives was lost, this was the first time that the world "Terrorist" was used by Edmund Burke in 1795. Other instances of terrorism by the name or heading they are well known as includes "Felice Orsini" in Italy that involved the assassination of the French Emperor Napoleon III on the 14th of January 1858. "Wall street bombing" terrorist atteck in New York in the 16th of September 1920 with live record of 38 dead people, 400 injured and $2 million damages during the course. "King David hotel bombing" Zionist group of terrorist attack on July 22, 1946 against British. "Yazidi community" "Baghdad bombings" "Sadr city bombing" "London transport bombing". The terroristic activities carried out by the Boko Harams in Nigeria can not be left out in this case, writing as a Nigerian. It started in 2002 but started insurgency in Nigeria in 2009, it has killed over 20, 000 people and made over 2. 3 million people homeless in all over the nation they operate in. It is ranked the word deadliest terror group.
It is obvious that terrorism has done more arm than good to our generation, right from it etymology till date, the affected group of people, hamlets, villages, communities, towns, cities, states and country have no less but more to say and testify of the great menace of terrorism as affected by her, how it has lead to several disasters disagreement, disarrangement, disorganization, mismanagement and other natural and artificial misfortune. Firstly, i will like to make it known that terrorism today has lead to great loss of lives, properties and valuables that are of great use. Lives are lost in the course of terrorist attacks, live, health are in most case involved in terrorist attack, paying less of our attention to the lives, properties and valuables of those called suicide bombers , those that are paid to deliver bombs, using themselves as the media or means of explosion. The lives of the innocent ones are usually at stake as the terrorist or group of one tries to violently attack their prey either publicly or privately but most times in a public square.
Specifically, terrorism is an act that involves the destruction of lives and properties, considering the explosion of bomb in public places, destroying valuables of both e government and private individual, involving the lives of individuals. Economically, terrorism prevents improvement and development of technology and the standard of living of the group of people involved as valuables are being destroyed through explosions and other dangerous outbreaks. Politically, the killing of good leaders(head of states and other leaders) and the eradication of potential leaders contributes to the under development caused by terrorism. It cant be overlooked that a high rate of terrorism in a location prevents the interference of other nations in time of need and help in terms of international support, thereby creating the fear of being attacked by the group of terrorist. Hindrance, some group of terrorist tend to attack a group of people or a nation due to at act that they are against, this, thereby hinder nations from being independence in decission making and scared of taking some steps that might be of positive effect. The lives of youth is some cases are affected in the violent act, for example, the kidnapping of thr shibok girls in Nigeria and the live of others involved in the course of the act. Terrorists recutes members as well as forces but forcefully, they force and initiate youths into the action, thereby destroying their intellect and potentials,disorienting them religiously and putting their lives at stake. The violent act of terrorist not easily taken by a government might result in violent reaction of the government, thereby leading to war. In a situation where neighbouring countries interfere, therefore intimidation the actions of the group terrorist could result into larger instance of operation. Terrorism can in any case lead to global war. Take for instance, in a situation where two countries with world power accommodate disagreement and decides to terrorise one another, and each having the support of one or two other countries with the world power, a situation of this nature can lead to word war. Not overlooking the previous global wars, precisely, the above stated situation can definitely create an entrance for the third world war. Picturing the events in the previous world wars and the technological development level of that time compared to the technological development level of this present moment, the reoccurrence of another global war might return man back to stone age, connoted from Albert Einstein statment on the unexpected third global war.
It would be of no use outlining the menace of terrorism without sighting some relevant remedy. If terrorism should be overlooked, most especially in this generation development will be delayed, economical and social development to be precise. It will be of great if organizations like UNO, WHO, OAU, OPAC. E. T. C. Thrives to improve more in organizing themselves and looking into the situation on ground in a way they can specifically contribute. For example, the OPAC securing their goods well during transportation and warehousing to prevent being used by terrorist as a means of explosion. The UNO, organizing her member state for a reliable assist in cases that affect their unity, peace and progress. WHO, providing an outmost assures care for member state that are affected and also influencing the government of all member state to prevent the reoccurrence of the violent act for their citizens health
