1.2 Why is this an act of terrorism?
The terrorists did not kill the number
of people that they could in the building, in my point of view they waited the
media come to promote their "point of view", It is important to say that in the
building was many important people of Europe Union and United States, if was
just a group of assassins, they would murdered the most people as they could
until their death. I can give an example: The Columbine massacre.
“Two
teenagers in black trench coats laughed and hooted as they opened fire on
classmates in their suburban Denver high school, killing 16 people, including
themselves, in the deadliest U.S. school rampage on record.
Eric
Harris (18) and Dylan Klebold (17) marched into the library of Columbine High
School yesterday with guns and pipe bombs, demanding, "All jocks stand up.
We're going to kill every one of you," said student Aaron Cohn.” The guardian
The communication has given to Islamic State the tool to recruit their "soldiers", there's a book that explains the strategy called: "In the Skin of a Jihadist: A Young Journalist Enters the Isis Recruitment Network by ANNA ERELLE", using just computers software as Skype and Facebook she knows a rich handsome man and terrorist who he has promised a perfect life in Syria. The journalist who wrote this book started the investigation after a European woman marry a terrorist and gave him children who possibly going to be terrorist like their father.
1.3 Terrorism and International Relations
It is important to analysis the international system, if you are small and has no importance to the others you are not heard, the North Korea is the perfect example, this poor and non-democratically country has much more importance to all of us because the act of be a nuclear country and then, be a dangers to the world gave the power of communication and North Korea was finally heard.
1.4 Communication
The most important is the communication, because the terrorism is much more than death or fear how can I explain the fear without media. The fear is what we always feel, but if that fear are sharing with lots of people around of the world this fear transform itself in terrorism in many cases, let's talk about the Islamic State, if there was no media could they spread to many fear to world?, absolutely not. They only would be people who has decapitated Non-Islamic people and possibly I myself would not know its existence.
Let us talk about communication, what kind of headline you might see if Brazil was attacked by Islamic state? It would be the same importance if would In Europe? the attack wound be noticed with the same importance if was in United States for example on Europeans news? Of course not!
In 2016 was a big natural disaster in Ecuador, more than 600 people are dead because of it, the media on Brazilian television was noticed the news about Ecuador for just 2 days, but every day they are talking about Donald Trump and his “inexpressive” wife or Macron and your perfectly policy, That’s mean, depended where the attack has done the media choose what is important or not.
1.5 Conclusion
Summary: the key is the communication, without it the terrorism loses its power of influence that gives their soldiers and the power of spread violence and fear under the world. The communication has the power to conclude that 6932 deaths in Iraq or 4886 deaths in Nigeria do not have the same importance of the 34 deaths in United States in 2016.
