WHY AND WHAT IS TERRORISM
This is a fact that, despite having several differences the
Muslim world has been united with the tie of universal muslim brotherhood and
religious faith, teachings and practices. A Muslim living in the farthest
corner of the world keeps the same feeling as he has for his own family
members, for the Muslims living in the other world. This strong tie of brotherhood
and unity has been a great cause of jealousy among the western Christian
dominated world. The western countries like Britain
and America
have tried several means to break the muslms apart, but in vain. Nowadays, they
have adopted a new method of demoralizing and humiliating the muslims and the Islam
as well. They have been trying to prove that the muslims are terrorists and
their religion encourages terrorism. What a blame!!? After more than 1400 years
of Islam�s introduction, suddenly Mr. Bush and his allies have discovered a new
name for Islam in the 21st century.
Remember, Mr. Bush, whatever your propaganda be, the people
of this world are not an idiot or ignorant as you consider them to be. You seem
to have adopted the great Napoleon�s theory that, �if you speak a false hundred
times, it becomes a true�. Not at all! The greater part of the world that has a
least commonsense, would disagree with this theory. Islam never teaches
terrorism nor encourages it. Prophet Muhammad (SAW) had proved this through his
life and practices. The person who has the basic knowledge of Islam would have
known this. So, before you blame someone, know him first.
Now, let us focus on the issue of terrorism. A terrorist is
an entity that forces someone, some group of people or the authorities of a
territory to fulfill their demands with the help of threats, harms and injuries
to life, property, concern etc. Importantly, terrorists do not have the same
religion. They can be of various religion, ethnicity or cultural back ground
with a same motto. In other words, terrorism is the religion of a terrorist.
Terrorism can be classified in three different types,
according to their basic cause and nature.
- Rebel
turned revenger.
- Obsessed
turned revenger.
- Muslim
brother hood turned patron (or, active member) of mass destruction
organization.
REBEL TURNED REVENGER
These people or organizations are not copious in the globe.
In some countries like Srilanka, India, a large number of people, after being
obsessed or deprived by the ruling (majority) class in terms of ethnic, racial
or religious differences, turn into rebels and cause mass destruction of the government
concerns and mass killings as revenge. But, their activities seldom cross their
own country border. So, they are, some what, less significant in the global
point of view.
OBSESSED TURNED REVENGER
Many references can be given in this regard. Like Bosnia,
Sarajevo, Herzegovina,
Vietnam, Palestine,
Iraq etc. where the
obsessed mass has been turned into a violent group of mass killer organization.
Among these countries, in Bosnia,
Sarajevo and Herzegovina,
the racial clashes/riots had been so intensive that it had been able to draw
global attention towards their conflict, and the issue has been remaining a
grave thing of global concern. The minority class turned into a hostile group
of revenger when the greater class started force evacuation from their own
houses, mass killing and severe oppression.
Let us take a look at the Palestine
and Iraq
respectively. The British govt., by doing justice(!) to the Jews that they
should have had a home land of their own in Israel, after getting them rid of
from Europe, forcibly occupied a vast part of land that belonged to the
Palestinian people. America
has been the accomplice in this whole scenario. After being deprived of their
mother land, the Palestinian people have no choice left but to fight for their
own home land. Significantly, most of the Palestinians are Arab Muslims.
In Iraq, the big brother Mr. Bush accused Mr. Saddam Hussein
of retaining nuclear and chemical weapon of mass destruction (as if, Pentagon
doesn�t keep a knife even!), and dethroned him after ridiculing the
prohibitions of UNO and proving its fake existence. He killed several thousand
innocent Iraqi people � many of whom didn�t know well either Mr. Saddam or Mr.
Bush even, but simply got killed by the greed and ego of Mr. Big B. Now, what
the obsessed people, who have lost everything, after knowing there is no
authority to help, compensate or console even, would do? The answer is very
simple. When a man is set back to the wall, he definitely, by natural law, will
fight back for survival.
The cruelty of America
in Vietnam is
well-known to the world. So, it would be too much to mention about.
Muslim brother hood turned
patron (or, active member) of mass destruction organization
Since, as I have mentioned earlier, the Muslim individuals keep
a keen feeling of brotherhood for the other Muslims living anywhere in the
world, they feel sympathetic for the suffering Muslims. Although, their methods
of supporting them is not always acceptable. Here, I would like to beg your
kind patience to go to a quick flash-back. You see, wherever there is any
political, religious, or civilian crisis in a country, America
has, definitely, had its either direct or indirect involvement/interference in
that particular issue. This is not a blame; rather a bright fact, which the
powerful western media never like to disclose or mention about. For example, in
Afghanistan, America
has sowed the seeds of Taliban � Al-Quaida and supplied them with all the
ammunitions and facilities in order to eradicate the Russian forces from the land
of Afghanistan. Now, when the
Russians are off from Afghanistan,
America has
stopped all the favours that it had been doing towards the Afghan people and
started neglecting them. Afghanistan
is a poor country. Can you guess where did they get all those heavy modern
artilleries to resist the America
and its UK
allies� attacks, which killed two million Afghan people, for more than one
month in the year 2001? Those are the stocks supplied by America
itself to get rid of the Russian forces once upon a time.
As I have mentioned earlier that, there have been several
subtle but organized efforts active to obliterate a class of people that has
been more than one fourth of the global population and which has been a strong
and lofty wall in Americas way to completely take hold of the global
administration, called THE MUSLIMS. America
and its allies know this very well that, until and unless they are making the
Muslims weak and demoralized in all spheres, they won�t be able to achieve
their goal (ill-will). So, especially in the middle-east where the countries
are Muslim dominated and in the African Muslim countries, America
has tortured and obsessed the Muslim population to the limit and beyond. As a
result of this, fierce terrorist outfits like Al-Quaida and Lashkar-e-Toiba
have been taken birth to take revenge on America
and its allies. This is true that they are Muslims. But why they have turned
against the western world so violently? This is not a sudden outburst of grief
or anger, nor that the Muslims have rediscovered a new meaning of �Jihad� (War fought for religion � Crusade. Jihad is
allowed only to protect the Islam against aggression. Here, Mr. Osama bin Laden
and his contemporaries have been fighting for some purpose other than only
Islam.). Rather the gunpowder of hatred, against the obsession caused by
the western world, has been assimilated gradually in the hearts of the Muslims,
and has been taken the shape of a mountain. Then, a small spark, - the results
are 9/11 and so on.
I would like to conclude by asking a little question. Has
anybody of us ever tried to know, why and when an ordinary human being becomes
a dreadful terrorist? Let me tell you something about this. The very simple,
natural and fundamental right and demand of every living being is TO LIVE.
Nobody of us wants to die (rather prematurely). We all have our dreams of life,
of our nearer and dearer ones. All (if not, most) of us want to live life in a
simple way with peace and happiness. Imagine, someday, a group of powerful people
invade your locality, destroy your houses and kill your parents, siblings and
other in-laws; and you, somehow manage to escape. While in a shelter far away
from your home, in a sleepless night, you are visualizing the flames rising
high above the terrace of your sweet home, the terror-stricken cries of your
brothers and sisters who have been butchered mercilessly, your helplessness at
that moment, -- all generates a deep anguish and hatred towards the ill-willed
invaders and creates a burning sensation of revenge that seems never to be end.
If you are an able and intelligent man, what would you do? You know well,
complaining to the authorities will not bring you back anything, since the
miscreants are the allies of the authority itself, or the authority is too weak
to help you. So, you may try to organize those who are also affected same as
you, and may try to take revenge and will, definitely, be declared as a
terrorist by the world. A man becomes hostile and doesn�t fear losing his own
life when he sees there is nothing more to loose and when his meaning of life
ceases to an end. There is no body to heal their wounds. The modern world calls
them terrorists, suppresses the circumstances that have made them to be so.
�May the most
benevolent Allah shower his blessings to keep this world a happy place to live
in peace and harmony. � Aameen.�
