Welcome to WSYK, # 16, what should you know. I am Ethan Bloch and what should you know?
When someone comes up to you like, “Hey you know that terrorism?” This is what you should say, “Of course I know about terrorism are you serious it is the 21st century and you are talking about the thing like for the last eight years. Our president has been telling us is the largest threat to the sovereignty of the United States. See terrorism only works if you become terrified. And unfortunately, since the devastatingly tragic events, which took place of September 11, 2001.
The citizens of the world lone super power had been terrified, it is should be noted however, that since September 11th there has not been a single terrorist attack on the U.S. home land. Furthermore, there have only been a couple large scare of terrorist attacks on any Western countries. The Madrid train bombings on March 11, 2004, as well as London two bombing on July 7, 2005, both of which are totally unrelated to each other or September 11th and we are not executed by Osama bin Laden’s Hokkaido rather got inspiration from Hokkaido.
Even though it seems like we are living on constancy to fear and terrorist activity. In reality, the world is safer to day that any other point in human civilizations, history, like saying to yourself, “What! I have rode at the airport!” I am like, “Hey! What is this threat level, like orange, I may not want to go outside today.” And you watched, you know TV, read the paper, like this stuff going on going even worst, it seems like the world is going to hell a hand basket. Even the safest point in human civilizations history it is also the most technologically advanced. Meaning that information travels at the speed of light. So, when a suicide bomber blows himself up in a city 6 thousand miles away and kills ten people, winds up being on the front page of the New York Times helping feed the fear of the West.
It is also being noted right now, you should learn this that there is no unified terrorist organization, which is purporting and executing all these locally organized terrorist attacks. The attacks in Egypt, in Jordan and in Iraq or not from one unified terrorist organizations, rather from hundreds of different locally organized gangs just like we have in LA the bloods, the creeps, to 18th street gangs, which has a membership of 20,000 and many a bit more threatening than these locally organized terrorist 6,000 miles away. Staring into to the face of the great depression or strengthening fascist, Nazi Germany, or strengthening Communist Soviet Union, or strengthening imperialistic in Japan, and the crumbling of the western European democracy. Franklin D. Roosevelt said to the American people at his inaugural presidential address in 1933. “Only thing we have the fear is fear itself.”
Osama bin Laden’s Hokkaido, since September 11th has been responsible for little more than a few YouTube videos. Terrorism only works if you become terrified. That is what I know about terrorism.
