Causes of Terrorism in Arab World
Abstract
Many Arab States have their peaceful development disrupted and their citizen terrorized by some groups of seduced or fanatic extremists who are prepared to used any means to achieve their goals regardless of the consequence to them self or others. The study of terrorism shows what causes an individual or groups to resort to terrorism how the terrorists operate and what they hope to achieve may give governments good understanding of the terrorist. It is anticipated that this understanding may help governments and anti terrorist agencies to efficiently prepare their security and other related forces to prevent terrorists' acts or reduce its effects. In this paper firstly I will try to give a brief historical background about the Arab States affected by terrorism. Secondly I will high light the possible and probable factors that may be responsible for the spurt of terrorism in this region. Thirdly the part played by propaganda campaign and the effect of media coverage of the events. A critical analysis of the system and sequence of terrorists attack in the region will also be undertaken. Consequently a suggested system to counter the prospect of attacks or at least make it more difficult for them to operate will be recommended.
