Terrorism Artical

This artical denied as well as confirmed some of my opions on terriorism. One theory that was denied was that I believed that terrorists were more so people of low income. I thought that these horrible people we're people that were poor and wanted to make some sort of radical impact. However my theory was prven wrong when the artical stated that 47% of terrorists had actually graduated from highschool. These people also came from privalaged families as well. It said 16% came from families of wealth. This does make sense seeing that most dictators such as Fidel Castro and Ho Chi Minh held wealth. It also is all connected in that the terrorists in 9/11 held enginering degrees and knew exactly what they were doing because they had had many years of schooling. Though after reading this artical some things we're shocking but other facts were not. One fact is the all mighty of terrorism which is that terroism instills fear into people...even a whole country sometimes. It says inthe artical that terrorism "is a mesans by which to scare the pants off the living and fracture their normal lives." This statement was proven when In the random shootings in Washington, DC, everything was shut down because they were so terrified of these two people. Even though the fact is that an average American to die in a year from a terrorist attack the probability is one in five million. This is over rided in peoples minds when something like nine eleven happens. All people can think of is the fear, and the what if it happens to me? What if I was one of those three thousand people to die in those planes or even in the towers. People have even stopped taking planes and driving to their destinationin fear of planes being crashed. This showing that that fear factor is still in the back of peoples minds. So in short by reading this artical one of my theories was proven wrong however the other theory of instilling fear still holds strong in people.
