Terrorism Reviews

In 1970, Palestinian terrorists attempted to hijack an Israeli El Al flight. The plane was diverted to London and the hijackers arrested. One of them, a woman called Leila Khaled, served 28 days in a British jail before being released in exchange for a hostage. She was charged with terrorism but never faced trial. ...

Verdict was quickly decided as an accident as Germanys and their stock exchange plummeted .An MD11 smashes into a hanger killing five people three months ago at Milans international airport.

Many of you will percieve the american government(Uncle Sam) as a freedom fighting, peace loving group of savoirs for the misfortunes of others. You might also think that they are constantly fighting for the freedom of all people including those who do not reside in America and want to put a stop to terrorist acts and racism. I can assure you. You ...

Why should people in Israel put up with palestinian suicide bombers killing children? - Advantages: . - Disadvantages: The Killing of Innocent Civilians, The ruld of the mob

Imagine the Italians have occupied most of Britain. They claim that 2000 years ago, Britain was Roman. Imagine that Italians from New York and London and other such cities have driven the Brits out of most of England. Imagine that a few British 'freedom fighters', partly armed by the Italian mafia, have carried out ...

As An American, Sept 11 is a painful day for me. No one I personally knew died that day, but I still mourned for those that were lost, just like everyone else in American (and most of the World?) The one thought that keeps coming back is "Why? What did it achieve". Did it distory our way of life that the terriors seem to ...

On September 11 2001, the security of every country in the world was threatened by an unimaginable terrorist attack on the USA. As one of America’s greatest allies, the British government realised that Britain may be next on the list of terrorist targets. The vulnerability of even the most westernised and developed State had been exposed and ...

Saturday night March 9th 2002, Moment, a cafe 30 seconds from my office and 5 minutes from my flat, was blown apart by a suicide bomber. We heard a loud explosion from the flat and this was quickly followed by the scream of ambulances as they went by underneath us. Although I've never specifically said so on Dooyoo before, I live in ...

First of all I want to make clear I dont sympathise with any action from so called terrorists or states that causes pain and death among innocent. But I have to agree it is a matter how you see it if you say people are terrorists or freedom fighters. But often a not high technology and financel resources to face a powerful strength they have to ...

Foreword - This is an opinion on human nature in response to terrorism. I'd appreciate it if you didn't reach for NU simply because it doesn't rigidly fit the category boundaries. Enjoy The biggest advances in human science have near all come about through weaponry experimentation. The act of one group trying desperately ...

Terrorism at the moment is a very tricky topic to write an opinion on but after reading a few opinions here and with recent events all around the world not forgetting the September the 11th Attacks on America and the subsequent detainment of those responsible I will give it a go. Now I can see two sides to the current treatment of the ...

We have all had our fill of horrific and terrifying terrorist attacks, and reprisals, in the past few months but what is the final fate of a failed terrorist?? I say failed because they have either been caught or run away.. We all know only too well the horror groups of terrorists, or should they be called murderers, maybe soldiers even?? ...

The world is a different place since September 11th s its now seems expectable and inevitable for future nutters or rogue nations to use weapons of mass destruction. You can feel it in the pubs and streets the work place and in the schools. The town centers of Britain were eerily quiet this New Year’s eve as people stayed home to ...

One mans freedom fighter is another mans terrorist, or is it the other way around. Well it seems to be in Israel and Palestine as suicide bombers blow up teenagers of both religions and then Israeli helicopters assassinate the people behind the bombers. With Bush’s words resonating around the Muslim world about hunting down terrorist, ...

They say in the case of a lightning storm, and you have no where to hide. Stick your ass in the air and grip your ankles to limit the chance of a fatal hit. Well this exactly what the British government has been doing over domestic and international terrorism on UK soil post September 11th. The powers that be have allowed the bad ...

Firstly I better point out that I'm not in anyway for any kind of violence be that from terrorist groups or from the government, who may be hiding behind the term 'war'. This topic is quite a relevant one at this time, with numerous fears from either a middle eastern attack or an IRA bomb. As I live in Manchester I suppose the ...

The other day, I received a letter from the States. Without thinking, my wife ripped it open and found inside a cheque for $20, which I’d been expecting. Then she got to thinking … should she have done this? Was she in danger of Anthrax? The thought leapt up and smacked her in the face like an enormous mallet … she ...

I thought I would update this op in the wake of the recent announcement by the IRA. For years we had been fighting guns against guns against the IRA. Gerry Adams was the bin Laden of Ireland. People were saying that they did not negotiate with terrorists. Despite the atack on the British cabinet in 1984 no bombing campaign was launched and finally ...

Terrorism Today I look around me as I carry out my daily tasks, and I see evil. This opinion may be alarming but as we, as citizens of this country, this planet all knows it is with us. Just over a month ago I turned on the television after a days work and before my eyes I saw the most alarming thing, inevitably. We in the world have ...

Purely from a subjective point of view, it does strike me as nothing short of ridiculous to be bombing Afghanistan in the search for 'terrorists'. First of all, I would point out that I wouldn't expect anything different from the thoroughly reactionary US/UK governments, but what we have seen defies belief. First of all, in ...
