What will be an ideal response?
Terrorism is the use of force or violence against others to promote political or social views. The ultimate goal of the violence is for government and citizens to change policies and ultimately yield to the beliefs of the terrorist group. Three types of terrorism exist: classic, amateur, and religiously motivated. Classic terrorism entails a specific, well-defined objective pursued by well-trained, professional, underground members. Amateur terrorism tends to occur once and often has poorly defined objectives, and therefore members are not as committed. Religiously motivated terrorism is carried out by individuals holding very strong core beliefs, regardless of how well defined their objectives are. The latter tends to be more chaotic and scattered because the individuals involved are extremely passionate about the cause, despite the lack of unified goals.
