Advantages: None at all.

Disadvantages: Everything, people die, wars are started.

Well I'm obviously not going to agree with terrorism...as I don't think anyone would. Its a terrible thing which is getting worse and worse in todays society with yet another huge terrorist plot been foiled just a couple of weeks ago in the North West, where plans to blow up heavily populated places like the Trafford Centre during the easter school holidays were in place. Luckily this was stopped...though obviously we can't know for sure what would have happened otherwise...we do only have the police and the Governments word for what went on afterall...and well....can we really trust everything they say!?

Terrorism has been around for decades, whether in the form of the IRA blowing up Warrington town centre and killing two young boys, or Al Queda bombers. But every since 9/11 knowledge of terrorism has grown and we're all much more aware of it...and its much more around us.

I have very mixed feelings on how to deal with Terrorism around the world...people say its only Muslims who are terrorists, but thats not strictly true. And i do think that alot of Muslims are been targeted by social discrimination because of the stigma attached to their religion...but if I am honest, and yes this will offend some people: they ask for it.

I don't mean that to sound rude or racist as its not meant in that way, but it is asked for in some respects. I was at the aiport a while ago, and a group of muslim girls went through security, they were in a family, a couple of young children, and a few young women, and a couple of men...the women had the full Burkha on, the one covering their whole face.......at check in, their passports were handed over, and they were let through...who is to say that is who they say it is underneath their Burkha!? Didn't David Beckham actually use one for a disquise a few years ago!??!?!?! Then, going through security, as most of us do these days with rings, keys, belts etc, a couple of them beeped away, but...their religion means they cannot be frisked! I then went through and beeped myself...normally its the metal in my bra, and I was taken to one side, took off my shoes removed all items of clothing that weren't covering me up, and frisked to high heaven. But, they get through with none of this...despite the fact that security it supposed to be higher nowadays...

This does make me alot mroe suspicious of people of that faith, and it shouldn't. Its wrong to think like that, but we are made to think like that because of they way they're treated..and half the time it isn;t their fault but the countries for their fear of offending people and been so PC that its ruining the way people interact!!

As I said, I don't really know what can be done about Terrorism, I think this whole "war" which is going on, is making matters worse not better, and I don't honestly think that killing our soldiers for the sake of the USA is helping us at all. I mean think about it, it all started with 9/11...which many people think was set up by the US Government anyway (and with Bush in power at the time who would be surprised), England only started getting a bashing when we joined them in their "war on terror". And has it got any better since 2001????? Has it hell.

People are wrongly accused, a man was shot when London transport was targeted a few years back, and he had nothing to do with it, just cbecause of the colour of his skin, and the fact he was running...well shove a flaming bomb under your bus and blow your city apart and lets see if you stand there still eh!!!!!! You have guns pointed at your face, bombs going off all around the city, and your suspected to be a terrorist...of course your gonna damn run! But that poor man was shot dead by the police.

My opinion on terrorism is well its bad. Lol. But theres nothing anybody can do about it, until Al Queda or whoever it is who is doing this to the world gets whatever it is that they want, (which I don't even know what it is!) then its going to carry on...I don't think they'll be happy until theres a Nuclear War and we're all incinerated and only the cockroaches remain.

Summary: Theres nothing we can do,
