Should governments negotiate with terrorists?

by leiamra

By Military definition terrorist is an individual who uses violence, terror, and intimidation to achieve a result.

So if you are a student and have nothing to do with politics, and the thing that cross your mind first thing in the morning is "Will they bomb our school today?!"…..then "They" are terrorists.

If you are sleeping in your own bed, and someone knocks your door and drags you and your family out, just to scare, beat or even kill you…..then "someone" is a terrorist.

If you bomb a whole country, killing civilians and destroying their houses cause a group of armed people kidnapped 2 of your soldiers. Then "YOU" are a terrorist.

It doesn't matter if you are a soldier or a teacher. It doesn't matter if you work for the government or for a bar. If you are "HUMAN" and use "VIOLENCE" against civilians to achieve a certain "GOAL"…..Then you are a by definition a "Terrorist".

Define who is a Terrorist….Then DO NOT Negotiate.
People with no principles will hardly know what the word negotiate means!
