Terrorism
Terrorism is a term used to describe violence or other harmful acts. Walter Laqueur, expert on terrorism, identified more than 100 definitions in 1999 and concludes that "the only generally accepted general characteristic is that terrorism implies violence and the threat of violence". Most definitions of terrorism include only acts intended to create fear or "terror", are perpetrated for an ideological purpose (as opposed to a "crazy" attack) and deliberately target "non-combatants".
As a form of unconventional war, terrorism is sometimes used to try to force a political change: by convincing a government or a population to accept claims to avoid future damage or fear of damage, the destabilization of a existing government, motivating an unhappy population to join a government. uprising, escalating a conflict in hopes of disrupting the status quo, grieving or drawing attention to a cause.
The terms "terrorism" and "terrorist" (someone who engages in terrorism) have a strong negative connotation. These terms are often used as political labels to condemn the violence or the threat of violence exerted by some actors as immoral, blind or unjustified. Persons described as "terrorists" seldom identify themselves as such and generally use other generic or situation-specific terms, such as: separatist, freedom fighter, liberator, revolutionary, militant, paramilitary, guerrilla, rebel, jihadist or mujahideen, or fedayeen, or any word of the same meaning in other languages.
Terrorism has been used by a wide range of political organizations to achieve their goals. political parties of right and left, nationalist and religious groups, revolutionaries and governments in power [1]. The presence of non-state actors in a widespread armed conflict has created controversy over the application of the laws of war.
An International Roundtable on Peacebuilding, Reconstruction of Terrorism (2004), organized by the Strategic Foresight Group, recommended a distinction between terrorism and acts of terrorism. Although acts of terrorism constitute criminal acts within the meaning of United Nations Security Council Resolution 1373 and the national jurisprudence of almost every country in the world, terrorism refers to a phenomenon that includes acts, perpetrators of acts of terrorism and the motives of the perpetrators. There is disagreement on the definition of terrorism. However, there is a global intellectual consensus that acts of terror should never be accepted. This is reflected in all important conventions, including the United Nations Counter-Terrorism Strategy, the results of the Madrid Conference on Terrorism and the results of the Strategic Foresight Group and the ALDE Panel discussions in the European Parliament.
