THE TERRORISM CONUNDRUM FOR DEMOCRATS
At first glance the statistics that downplay the threat of terroism which Oecolampadius reproduces for us make for a compelling case against the focus on anti-terrorism policies. However, looking at all the items listed, every issue except terrorism creates a personal crisis, while terrorism creates a national crisis. Every day we as a nation continue forward with innumerable personal tragedies both to the known and unknown, but let one national tragedy occur (like 9/11), and the whole nation is deeply and adversely affected. And what if we had done nothing to combat the war on terrorism during the years since 9/11? I have no doubt the incident rate for terrorism would be higher than 500. Should we give up the war on terror because of success?
