blog 2 Terrorism

This article is about the increase of Global Terrorism in the last 5 years. Since 2009 the amount of insurgency attacks and Global terrorism increased 150%. A reason for this rapid change is the large amount of suicide attacks in Iraq and an ongoing civil war in Syria. In 2009 there was a total of 7,217 attacks recorded and in 2013 the number was 18,524. These rises are one of the largest in several years.  The article describes an attack as an event in which a sub-state actor, whether an individual, individuals or organizations, commits politically or ideologically motivated acts of violence with the goal of forcing others to comply their objectives and that results in death, damage, or disruption.

The increase of Terrorism and attacks is a big issue in the World’s society. In regions like Iraq or Syria there is no democracy and the government is all about corruption and power. There are groups of Terrorism in these countries who try to give a statement with an attack or a suicide. Since most of the American soldiers disappeared out of Iraq the amount of terror attacks increased. These countries are not able to establish democracy and freedom on their own.  They need help from countries around the world to decrease Terrorism and violence. Also on countries like Pakistan or Iraq there a so many poor people and groups like the Taliban uses that for their benefit. They give them many and food, but they have to join their group and suddenly normal people are terrorists. The help of other countries is necessary to decrease Terrorism
