Terrorism - Towards An Understanding :: essays research papers fc

I am in complete disagreement with Corrado and Cohens possibleness of political terrorism. I remember that political terrorism is committed by dominant, aggressive males in positions of power, acting with another(prenominal) dominant, aggressive males for more than power, money, or status, and without regard to the spiritual nature of human kind. I deliberate that dividing political terrorism into state or anti state terrorism, does not stir up to the root cause of terrorism. To uncover the true cause of terrorism, I believe involves identifying motive and personalities of those "terrorizing". In most cases it is dominant, aggressive males who hold positions of power in either the political, economic, or military arenas, and who manipulate consequences to suite themselves, e.g., Hitler, Stalin, Mussolini, and in more recent times, Slobodon Milosovic. Those that fight against dominance and aggression, I believe should be called revolutionaries. For example, the Irish Re publican Army.      The North of Ireland harboured a protestant streak of dominant, aggressive males, who in attempt to hang on to power, unleashed the horrific events of Bloody Sunday, and many other uncalled for acts of aggression. These acts where sanctioned by politicians, in both the North of Ireland and England, who acted in connexion with both the Royal Ulster Constabulary, and the British Army. On Bloody Sunday, the British soldiers deliberately aimed and killed young men, they believed most likely to be members of the Irish Republican Army, at the peaceful, albeit illegal, demonstration. "...all the deceased where men, and nine of them were under the age of 25." It was an effort to stop what has nigh come to pass. A fair assembly of politicians, who represent all layers and fabrics of the society. The event is still under review. The actions of the Irish Republican Army has eventually destroy the positions of power that the dominant, aggressi ve males abused. But I do not believe that we should label those who fought for a better life as terrorists. People who pose their lives on the line for true justice, I believe should be referred to as a Revolutionaries.     We are exposed to new conflicts now, almost on a daily basis, and no two situations are ever identical. This makes the breakdown of a typology extremely difficult. The typology which defines "political terrorism", according to Corrado and Cohen, has eleven different categories, in order to encompass all of the different situations. These typologies may be multipurpose in a security setting, but in order to bring forth to the bottom of the problem, I believe that rather than complicating the issue with many meanings, it should rather be simplified and attributed to one of two choices.
