Does terrorism work? How successful have terrorists, foreign and domestic been? Morality aside, is it a useful tactic?
>>
A lot of the colonial independence wars in the 50-60-70ies were fought with terrorism. Israel for example gained its independence from the UK after they repeatedly committed terrorist attack on British citizens in Palestine. That same movement later became the Mossad.

Considering the feminized Western society nowadays it can get any country down with bare minimum casualties.

>Does terrorism work?
Yes

>How successful have terrorists, foreign and domestic been?
Well, Muslims have managed to sink America into a massive debt and put our economy into recession. McVeigh managed to get the Feds to rethink using excessive force like they did at Ruby Ridge and Waco. The PLO managed to get international Palestinian recognition. Mandela managed to become President of South Africa and an international symbol of "peace" (lmao)

>Morality aside, is it a useful tactic?
Apparently so, provided a group is willing to engage in terrorism for what could be decades. If you had a very small group, then terrorism would probably be the best choice for political violence. Unless, of course, you were in a position to cut the head of the government off like Lenin did in 1917 (The Bolsheviks were an extremely small group for what they did, and really only gained power because they were able to take over the central government buildings and take prisoners). In most countries nowadays, you'd be hardpressed to be able to take out the entire government with a single coup in a single city.

I guess it's a toss up, though. Not all terrorists succeed. For instance, the KKK, the IRA, and the Basques have all generally not accomplished any of their goals.

It's successful when it comes to striking fear into people. Not much else I can think of

The motive of terrorism is the scare the enemy population into submission, ISIS has sucessfully scared the entire Iraqi human population into submission with its constant terrorist attacks done in the country back in the past, now they have control over the entire country.

A good example of terrorism is the USA nuking Japan, the USA scared Japan into submission by nuking it.

Refigees are pretty much still running free in europe, a few people have taken action but the eu is wanting to force them to take refugees.

Very effective against weak leadership.

Define "work" and "useful tactic."

You can make people afraid ("terrorism").

Is that "working?" What "usefulness" does such a "tactic" have?

It kills off competition for hairy kebab pussy for the imams, so in that sense, it is quite successful. More young muslims dead = more pussy for the old men pulling the strings.

Genghis Khan used tactics that spread terror and look at how successful he is. His descendants are around today shitting up the board with their blue cross on a white background flag.

The ole empire was co-opted about 1800 long before the creation of Masonic Israel in preparation for Pikes Masonic WW3.

Even left gatekeeper Noam Chomsky admits state sponsored terror dwarfs all other forms of terror and if you haven't been living with eyes wide shut this is plainly obvious, the big lie and all that. Keeping with his disinformation slant, knowingly or not, he simply replaces occult with state, this is because the occult wants to dismantle the state and move towards neo-feudalism.

Masonic just like the Jacobins.

The Catholic Church which since their second world war has so much power in so many spheres especially in the news media - most people, even Catholics, laughably consider it nothing more than a benevolent impotent charity organization today! Conveniently forgetting 1000 years of the iron hand let alone being the wealthiest corporate entity on the face of the earth! Now that is power!

most recent case of the terrorists winning I can think of was the Madrid train bombings in 2005 which were intended to get the Spanish government to pull its troops out of Iraq and they did exactly that after the attack.

Its easy to forget that they were the third largest participant in that war after America and Britain.

that's not terrorism, terrorism is the use of violence by a non-state actor to attempt to force a change in policy

Ever since everyone boarding a plane has to remove their shoes for inspection.

Terrorism doesn't work, at all. It's a horrendously bad strategy.

Sometimes fighting a war works - if you have mass support and enough fire power to win the war. That's different than terrorism.
>>
>>57331834
You really need to start paying attention. It's incredibly effective. Osama sunk the Soviet and America's economy, we left Astain and Iraq with our tails between our legs and now we have ISIS filling the power vacuum and we'll be fighting in that part of the world for then next ten years at least with no real chance of any sort of victory. The independent state of Israel exists because of terrorism,

Just wrote an essay about why fighting terrorism does not work.

Its nearly impossible to fight causing serious unrest in your own country in the form of restricting or revealing laws. Country basicly commits cultural genocide to combat the threat.

Literally the only way to fix this is to kill every single muslim on this earth like we should of hundreds of years ago to avoid this problem.

It's kind of brilliant. The strategy in Iraq and Afghanistan was to defeat America not by fighting US soldiers, but by attacking the local population.

Or if you overreact and make everything worse. Where'd that trillion dollars in Iraq and Afghanistan get you?
