“Terrorism” is of two kinds: terrorism that is evil based
upon wicked tyrannical acts, and terrorism that is good and
desired based on necessary and justified acts. The terrorism
that is evil is injustice, double standards, tyranny, and
aggression, in all the hateful connotations that these words

imply. It targets women and children, civilians and non-
combatants, trying to force defeat and difficult political

decisions by spreading terror. This kind is what most people
immediately think about when hearing the word terrorism.
Often people associate it with what they have been
preconditioned to picture by various government agencies and
segments of the mass media. Muslims are routinely portrayed
as terrorists even though many are either totally innocent of
the charge or are more innocent than many of their antagonists
who aggress against them. “Muslim terrorism” is a media and
think tank byword, even though one would be hard pressed to
find the equivalent term of Jewish, Christian, Hindu or
Buddhist terrorism in usage. Certain institutions and
individuals - with known agendas and backings - have been
instrumental in fabricating and perpetuating misinformation,
exaggeration, and previously disqualified and refuted
misunderstandings and slanders.
