"Democracies are poor breeding grounds for terrorism and war"
- Adam Schiff
About this Quote
This quote by Adam Schiff suggests that democracies are not conducive to the growth of terrorism and war. This is because democracies are based on the principles of freedom, justice, and equality, which are antithetical to the ideologies of terrorism and war. Democracies also have strong organizations and laws that secure the rights of residents and ensure that their voices are heard. Additionally, democracies are more likely to participate in diplomatic services to conflicts, instead of resorting to violence. This remains in plain contrast to authoritarian programs, which are most likely to use violence to reduce dissent and keep control. Therefore, democracies are less likely to be reproducing premises for terrorism and war.
