Was it terrorism when the planes flew into the World Trade Centre?
Artman said:Yes. It was an attack designed to create terror by a small fringe group in order to gain power over another larger more powerful foe.
This attack was unprovoked, the act of war was undeclared, and the perpetrators were not uniformed, carrying insignia or any other signal of affiliation to mark them as an enemy.
Unprovoked is my opinion. In my opinion again I believe they believed that the attack was justified.Gokul43201 said:Everything here looks fairly factual, except "This attack was unprovoked". That is your opinion. If you claim it is fact, must qualify it better.
Terrorism is the use of violence and intimidation in pursuit of political, religious, or ideological goals. It is often targeted at civilians and is intended to create fear and disrupt society.
Some examples of terrorism include the 9/11 attacks in the United States, the 2008 Mumbai attacks in India, and the 2015 Paris attacks in France. Other examples include suicide bombings, hijackings, and cyber terrorism.
Terrorism can be carried out by individuals, groups, or even governments. It is often perpetrated by extremist groups with radical ideologies or by individuals who are motivated by personal grievances.
The effects of terrorism can be widespread and devastating. They can include loss of life, physical and psychological trauma, economic damage, and social and political instability.
Preventing terrorism is a complex and ongoing effort. Some strategies include intelligence gathering and sharing, addressing root causes of extremism, and implementing security measures. It is also important to promote tolerance and understanding among different groups to prevent radicalization.
