TERRORISM AND RELIGION BY THE BEGINNING OF THE 21 ST CENTURY
Journal Title: Impact Strategic - Year 2008, Vol 28, Issue 3
Abstract
The action for identifying, analysing, understanding and counteracting terrorism, despite its way of manifestation, will always be difficult and very complicated, as it seems terrorism will posses the strategic initiative, in most of the cases, and the preventive efforts will be huge, difficult, risky and not always with a predictable finality. Terrorism is not just a product of a sick world that is of a part of the world that feels hit, mad, and desperate, without any chance and without any cure. It is also a product of the world’s aggressiveness, of its hidden and revengeful spirit. And this is why we have turned our attention to the religious terrorism. Although it may seem to be absurd, nowadays, terrorism in the name of religion has become the prevalent way of the manifestation of the political violence within the contemporary world, as it is not the only one, as nationalism and ideology still remain catalysers of the extremist behaviour.
