The Problem: Terrorism In The World
Terrorism, which has been around for as long as people can remember, has
been on the rise for the past ten years. Terrorists use murder, kidnapping,
hijacking, and bombings to almost always achieve a political purpose. These
radicals are not just subject to the United States, terrorism is all over the
world, in every way, shape and form.
There are many different types of terrorism, for many different purposes.
The primary reason for terrorist acts are to force a change in their nation's
government. If terrorists are not satisfied with there government's political
positions, they may end up taking the matters into there own hands. Another
reason for terrorist acts are because of hate towards a race, nationality, or
religion. For example, in 1972 the Palestine Liberation Organization invaded
Israeli dorms in the Munich Olympics, and held the Israeli athletes hostage
until Israel would agree to release Palestinian terrorists that were captured in
Israel. When Israel refused to comply with the terrorists demands, they blew up
two helicopters which held the Israeli athletes, killing the whole team. This
was one of the many cruel types of terrorism. In recent years, terrorism seems
to be at a new high and attacks are more violent than in the past.
With terrorism being so secretive and having no forewarning, it has been
a real problem to deal with. The governments of many countries have tried to
stop these cowardly acts, but they just seem to be on the rise. I have a few
ideas that might work
Solution:
Since there are no fool-proof ways to predict when a terrorist will
strike next, there can really be no complete answer to this problem. Even
though there is no way to totally eliminate terrorism, my solutions may still
prove valid.
With the bombing of the World Trade Center, and the federal building in
Oklahoma, rental moving trucks have been used to hold the bomb. An idea I have
for this type of attack,... [continues]
