TEXT A
Even though terror is a frequently used term for the actions in question today, there are many other definitions which is accepted and recognized widespread
The person who is a terrorist for one can’t be a warrior of independence for the other one
The most significant characteristic of terror is that it chooses the target randomly, and this random determination of victim causes the independence they try to achieve on the individuals in greater impacts.
Unlike the society's peaceful attitude by means of democratic persuasion and behaviour, terrorism, for reaching political targets, is not different from traditional political crimes and methodical, organized, systematic acts of murdering, kidnapping, intimidating and destruction.
TEXT B
The aims of the terror organizations display indifferences depending on the countries they take action in and the groups they are directed by.
The manipulation of ethnic structure of the society can’t be a good source for terror in the course of time.
The terror organizations assert that they aim to have a more peaceful and fair style of life in loyalty of the ideology they support, getting rid of the government and the leaders they regard as unjust and cruel.
Terrorists consider themselves as the society's unknown warriors and sacrificing volunteers whose activities have not been understood and appreciated yet.
For them the effect of the operation is not important, the operation itself is important.
TEXT C

It is essential that the economical and socio-cultural structure of the society should also be taken onto consideration while the reasons of terror is explained.
