The Ideology of Terror Alone Is the Cause for the Widespread Phenomenon of Global Terrorism: The Terrorist Is Merely a Tool, a Weapon

As a matter of fact, the ideology of terror alone is the cause for the widespread phenomenon of global terrorism. A terrorist is just a tool or weapon in a hand, because he doesn't engage in thinking for himself.  Many a time terrorists even don’t know whom they are going to target or why they are going to mercilessly kill an innocent civilian. For instance, when the terrorist who killed Faraj Faudah was brought to the court and asked why he killed him, he replied because he was a Kafir (disbeliever). But when the advocate asked him how he got to know that he was a Kafir or whether he read any of his books, he simply replied: “I am illiterate”.

Obviously, such a stupid killer was working as a tool for the ideology of terror. This ideology is so fatal and dangerous that it can jeopardise not only a family or society but rather an entire country. As a result of that, people begin to peddle hatred, intolerance and discrimination against each other under the false assumption that by doing so they would do a great favour to the cause of Islam.
Moreover, this ideology of terrorism is not restricted to only Islamic organisations; it also has roots in other entities and even countries like Israel and other imperialist countries. If we take a holistic view of this widespread phenomenon, we will get to realise that its poisonous tentacles sometimes reach out to the tribes and families.
