How to Deal with Terrorism

Terrorists are waging a war against the West. Their aim is to establish a new world order where their version of their faith is law. Not too many Americans, or members of the West, understand the War on Terrorism's true nature. We all have a responsibility to deal with terrorism in a way that benefits our civilization. Read on to learn more.

      Read "Unrestricted Warfare," by Col. Qiao Liang and Col. Wang Xiangsui. This book scratches the surface of the War on Terrorism and the terrorist war against us. Understand that one of their main tactics is to scare the population into pressuring the government toward a certain policy.

      Be vigilant against the terrorist threat. Terrorism takes planning and coordination. You may see people who look out of place around a symbolic landmark--one that many people frequent. Deal with these guys quickly by informing the police. Let law enforcement handle abandoned luggage and packages.

      Deal with terrorism by being one step ahead of the threat. Try to anticipate what someone carrying terrorism out would do. Many buildings have no parking barricades marking a bomb blast zone around it. Frequent establishments with protective buffer zones if possible. Reserve a room above the first three floors, opposite the street, protecting yourself from the threat posed by the side effects of a bomb blast.

      Change your travel route often. Kidnappers rely on people taking the same route. Look around your travel routes and know what cars and vehicles are normally there and which one's are out of place. Eliminate the threat by taking an alternate route.

      Think about what you'd do if you witness an act of terrorism. Learn first aid if you anticipate helping people. Contemplate evacuation routes if you imagine a bomb going off in your train. Play out terrorism related scenarios, and plan how you'd deal with these scenarios.

      Reduce the threat of becoming a victim of terrorism by wearing neutral clothing. Shirts with your country's banner on it should stay back home when you travel overseas. Westerners are targets for people carrying terrorism out.
