The phenomenon of terrorism is one of the most disturbing of our time, a manifestation of violence and absolutely inexcusable contempt for human life and peaceful coexistence.
In the past decades there have been subversive movement that used violence and struck institutional goals (eg politicians, judges, etc.) and civil rights. In Italy we remember the "leaden years", ie the period from 1969 to 1980, he saw a crescendo of attacks and violent acts (such as the massacre of Piazza Fontana in Milan with the explosion of a bomb in Bank National Agriculture 12 December 1969, the massacre of Piazza della Loggia in Brescia May 28, 1974, the attack on the train "Italicus" direct from London to Monaco 4 August 1974.
Many journalists, trade unionists, the judiciary suffered injuries to the legs or were murdered. The most serious was the kidnapping and murder of Aldo Moro and the Commons (March 16, 1978) by the Red Brigades, whose body was found in an abandoned car on 9 May.
terrorism was a phenomenon of violent and subversive: with tactical stragista wanted to destabilize the state and the order and hit the representatives of civil society and even innocent people, spreading terror and fear and insecurity. The terrorism of those years, although it could have ramifications and supporters abroad, hitting only within the Italian State.
Terrorism Today
Terrorism today is much more serious, disturbing and widespread than the years of terrorism, because terrorism is now an international phenomenon, terrorism today has become a network of dark political complications, it also uses sophisticated technology, often makes use of substantial financial resources and develop strategies on a large scale. Today the targets of terrorist attacks are, in general, the places of everyday life. The terrorism of today revealed all its dangers and all our vulnerability if we consider the ease of circumventing the control systems, today also known as bio-terrorism with the use of chemical and biological weapons. The ways of peace
You can reach a peace? Certainly each of us in his small can be a peacemaker in accordance with the roles that are proper, that commitment to become a peacemaker pertains especially to those who re pe institutional duties which is, has responsibility for national and international policies.
The ways to achieve a stable and lasting peace are there and can be:
the way of dialogue, the courage to meet each other to create contacts and exchanges of ideas between different cultures and traditions to overcome prejudices and closures stiffeners or avoiding misunderstandings that certainly does not increase the esteem and trust. The
through diplomatic channels, with the resumption of official relations between warring states, the dialogue on international political, diplomatic, which are all forms on many occasions proved to conflict resolution in place or close to bursting. As a support to diplomatic compromise is necessary that international organizations will be strengthened, gaining power and authority so that it can intervene to quell the conflicts.
a guarantee of peace always remembers how important curb the arms trade and defense industries convert, remember that the arms trade carries with it implications of paradoxical: there are poor nations that invest capital in the purchase of weapons and the contributions for International Development are used to strengthen war, also to countries at war reach supplies of weapons while the basic necessities can not overcome the blockades and embargoes.
