Terrorism has become so widespread that it is now impossible to dismiss it as the action of a few crazy people. In fact,terrorism—the use of violence by small groups of people to accomplish political aims they feel unable to bring about by peaceful, legitimate means—has sociological roots.
Terrorism most often stems from the situation of people who consider themselves a national group but who feel that no state.no legitimate and widely recognized autonomous government,represents them. Since all the inhabitable territory of the world is divided into states,which are the main organizational units through which people can exercise political power,people without a state to represent them feel completely powerless and cut off from the world order. To have independences—and even a recognized identity—as a people,those individuals feel that,too,must have a sovereign state government. Thus terrorism is frequently a tactic of people who find themselves or feel themselves to be stateless. They may seek to overthrow the government of the country in which they live and replace it by one more to their liking,or they may try to secede from the state they inhabit in order to found a new country.
Whatever the motives of those who try to accomplish change by violence,existing governments are likely to label them as terrorists—meaning that they have no legitimacy and few followers. Now,we are in a rapidly changing environment and the means employed by terrorists have also changed. These changes mean greater difficulties in countering global terrorism.
Generally speaking,terrorist attacks are usually coordinated. On Sept. 11,2001 .terrorists hijacked two airliners and crashed them into the World Trade Center in a coordinated series of attacks that brought down the twin 110 storey towers,an aircraft also crashed at the Defense Department. This incident hasn’t only brought disaster to the American people but also placed a challenge to everywhere.
Therefore,we condemn the terrorist act in the United States as an affront to civilization,social stability, security and the basic human right to exist. We know that terrorism and evil won’t be wiped out unless all nations join together to fight it. This means we need to call for enhanced international co-operation to combat terrorist attacks to ensure a peaceful world.
The main purpose of this passage is to_____.
选项
A、explore the sociological roots of terrorism and enhance the international cooperation against it
B、defend terrorism as a heroic deeds
