Religion and War on Terror
Religion and war on
terror
The 9/11 was not so
old event, world got shock to see the event of television that how terrorist
plan the event to take life of thousands. The effect of 9/11 is that US starts
to rethink, its policy on terrorism and had taken hard steps to destroy Taliban
from Afghanistan. The question arises is
that justifies that one community should be blame for all terrorist activity.
The most radical answer is that no terrorism and religion fanatics are two
different problems.
In reality, several finding and study show that 90 percent
of terrorism run the name under Jihad and have Muslim origin. Whether it
Taliban or the Kashmir problem in India or the Palestine problem in Middle
East. It is also not good to criticize the one religion for the rise of
terrorism as it creates hatred in the heart of people for one community, which
can disturb the peace in the society. The other cause of terrorism development
is un uniform development, regional disparity and hatred on the name of
language, color and creed.
Unemployment and lack of education also helps the
problem in growing to many fold because person at that stage is not able to
decide what is wrong and what is right. Religion fanatics people use to take advantage
of that situation to spread terrorism in such situation. To deal with the
problem there needs strict government control and providing equal opportunity
to all section of the society to grow at same rate.
