About this Quote

This quote by Patrick J. Kennedy speaks to the psychological nature of terrorism. Terrorism is not just physical violence, but also a kind of psychological warfare. Terrorists use fear, unpredictability, and division to manipulate and manage people's habits. By creating worry, terrorists can cause individuals to act in ways that they would not normally do. Uncertainty can lead to confusion and chaos, making it hard for individuals to make choices. Division in society can cause skepticism and hatred, which can further sustain the terrorist's agenda. Terrorism is a complex issue that needs a diverse approach to address. Comprehending the psychological aspects of terrorism is a fundamental part of this process.
