This document defines terrorism and discusses its causes and impacts. Terrorism is defined by the FBI and US Department of Defense as the unlawful use or threat of violence against people or property to intimidate for political goals. It discusses two types of terrorism: national (directed internally without foreign influence) and international (foreign-based or directed). Causes mentioned include social/political injustice, belief that violence achieves goals, religion, illiteracy, and injustice. Impacts involve economic losses from death/damage, societal fear and suspicion, and complicated international politics. Solutions proposed are education to understand cultural differences, eliminating root causes like funding sources, and addressing injustices that radicalize individuals.

3. TYPES OF TERRORISM

activities are directed at
elements of our government
without foreign involvement.
Oklahoma City bombing is a
primary example

4. TYPES OF TERRORISM(CON.)
International terrorism involves
groups whose terrorist activities
are foreign-based and/or
directed by countries or groups
outside the United States. Sept.
11 is an example of International
Terrorism.

5. CAUSES OF TERRORISM
Social and political injustice
The belief that violence or its threat will be
effective
Religious
Illiteracy
Injustice

6. CAUSES OF TERRORISM
• Social and political injustice: People choose terrorism
when they are trying to right what they perceive to be a
social or political or historical wrong—when they have
been stripped of their land or rights, or denied these. For
instant, the Irish Republican Army (IRA) bombed
English target in the 1980s to make the point that they
felt their land was colonized by British imperialists.

7. CAUSES OF TERRORISM
• The belief that violence or its threat will be effective.
Another way of saying this is: the belief that violent
means justify the ends. Many terrorists in history said
sincerely that they choose violence after long
deliberation, because they felt they had no choice.

8. CAUSES OF TERRORISM
• Religious: perhaps the most commonly held belief today
is that terrorism is caused by religion. Though it is not
the main cause for terrorism, religion does play a
significant role in driving some forms of it. Many
terrorist get wrong understanding in religion. Since
1980, there has been an increase in terrorist activity
motivated by religion.

9. CAUSES OF TERRORISM
• Illiteracy: Lack of education amongst the people has
been put forward as a prime reason of terrorism.
Uneducated person are easy to be persuaded to commit
the crime because they have no high ability of thinking.
Many terrorists believe crazy things; they're more likely
to do crazy things.

10. CAUSES OF TERRORISM
• Injustice: Injustice is a cause of terrorism. People get
offended and hurt by the justice system that they choose
to resort to acts of violence in order to protest the on-
going injustice. There is no cure to fixing the justice
system to ensure that everyone is happy, but injustice is
a cause of terrorism.

11. IMPACT OF TERRORISM
Economic impact: loss of life, infrastructures, and
business. Government spending on security
Society impact: create atmosphere of suspicion, fear
,and panic all around
Politic impact: makes world politics more complicated
and difficult

12. IMPACT OF TERRORISM
• Economic impact: we can see that every terrorism event
always killed the innocent people, destroyed public
properties, and individual properties. The large amount
of money has been used to repair the loss of
infrastructures. The investigators are afraid to do the
business because they worry about safety. Government
spending on security has also increased. For example,
September 11 Attacks
• Loss of life and property cost insurance companies close to US$40
million
• Losses of business to the airline industry as people were afraid of
flying following the incidents.

13. IMPACT OF TERRORISM
• Society impact: Terrorism poses a serious law and order
problem and leads to disintegration of society. The
incident of murder, torture, mutilation, kidnapping,
arson and extortion create atmosphere of suspicion, fear
and panic all around. Life becomes uncertain. The
terrorists kill unarmed civilians including women and
children.

14. IMPACT OF TERRORISM
• Politic impact: In general, terrorism makes world
politics more complicated and difficult. This is because
terrorism can cause very important problems even
though terrorist groups are not clearly linked to
states. The presence of non-state actors who can have a
real impact on the world makes world politics more
difficult.

15. SOLUTIONS TO TERRORISM
Education!!!
Understand the differences in
cultures, religions, beliefs and
human behaviors
Think of the peace, freedom and
equality of all human beings, not
just “one group of people”
Eliminate the root of terrorism

16. SOLUTIONS TO TERRORISM
• Education: education is a primary solution to terrorism.
The government should educate the people to
understand the differences in culture, religion, belief,
and human behaviors. All people should think of the
peace, freedom and equality of all human beings, not
just “their group of people”

17. SOLUTIONS TO TERRORISM
• Eliminate the root of terrorism: The way
this world is attacking terrorism is funny.
Every country is doing something to kill
terrorism, but they still cannot eliminate
all terrorist. They can kill some terrorists
today, but they cannot kill the other
terrorist tomorrow or after tomorrow.
They should try to find the root of
terrorism, and they have to eliminate it.
Black money is the main root cause of
terrorism because terrorists can do
nothing without money, so the
government should find who support the
terrorist.

18. SOLUTIONS TO TERRORISM
• Understand about terrorists: the solution is to find out
the problem why a terrorist doesn't feel guilty and why
he was forced to be a terrorist. It may be some injustice
done to him. Hatred spreads hatred only. It may be
conquered by love only.
