Terrorism

In simple terms, terrorism means the use of force or threat against a person or group or country. It is the burning question of today as there is a global wave around. Terrorists of all races and creeds are active individually or collectively, locally or globally in selling death, destruction, horror, harassment and insecurity. Though global war against terrorism has been afoot since the destruction of American World Trade Center on September 11 2001, the monster of terrorism is still very much there.


Almost all agree that widespread terrorism is all due to unjust global political and economic systems, poverty, frustration, injustice, cruelty, exploitation, sectarianism, religious militancy, state-sponsored terrorism, double standard of super-powers, paralyzed UNO, and trouble spots like Kashmir countries in their own way and, hence, resort to terrorism. Unless the above-mentioned causes are removed, terrorism cannot be rooted out. To blame a certain group pr to make some country scape-goat in the name of ending terrorism is only a wild goose chase. Is America not doing the same? Hence better sense must prevail to combat and remove terrorism effectively. Honest and impartial approach of big powers, equitable global systems, distinction between freedom movements and terrorism solution of trouble spots, end of exploration, poverty and injustice, effective and impartial UNO and the policy of live and let live are the keys to end global terrorism.


Unfortunately, American and European print and electronic media have launched poisonous propaganda against Islam and the Muslim World. The Muslims are being branded extremists fundamentalists, fanatics and dangerous for world peace. The so-called war against terrorism in Afghanistan, Iraq, Occupied Kashmir, Palestine and Chechnya is being hands in this regard? These question call for knowing the true significance of Jihad and real responsibility of the so-called Jihadis.
