      The political aims of terrorists are countered when the media highlight the victim rather than the culprit. Show the cost, not the criminal.

      Terrorism—like arson, murder, and theft—exists in every era. It is not new, and those responsible are not masterminds; they are criminals.

          Terrorism can no more be defeated with a military than can thievery. It is only countered by neutering the desired outcome.

          Terrorists steal lives to buy attention. Deprive them of that, and you remove their strategic motivation.

          Terrorism is countered by making it a crime without benefit: caring for the victims, convicting the responsible, and erasing the message.

          A thousand sacrificed rights will do less to counter terrorism than a single moment of fearless discipline. Don't be afraid. Be resilient.

          A Russian puppet incites fear from the White House and intelligent counter-terrorism strategy is voiced by an American refugee in Russia.

          So why don't all religions kill people anymore? Have they all fallen off or what happened.

          It's not Islam (arguably the most peaceful religions) killing people, it's the radical terrorist groups that identify with the religion.

          This is like the KKK identifying with Christianity to lynch anybody who wasn't white or Protestant, the religion didn't commit the crime.

          And the definition of terrorism is? Historically there has been a fine line between terrorist and freedom fighter . . . who wins.

          who they're fighting against determines that more than winning.

          on further thought, it's who they attack (tactically) that matters most.
