Worst Terrorist Attack in India - List of incidents

List of Worst Terrorist Attack in India | Killing of humanity

Terror or Terrorism is always synonymous with violence. Terrorism is the culmination of acts of violence, terrorism is the apex of violence. Violence can occur without terror, but there is no terror without violence. Terrorism is not the same as intimidation or sabotage. The goal of intimidation and sabotage is generally direct, while terrorism is not. Victims of Terrorism actions are often innocent people. The terrorists intend to create a sensation so that the public pay attention to what they stand for. The act of terror is not the same as vandalism, whose motive is to damage physical objects. Terror is different from the mafia. The action of the mob emphasizesomerta, shut up, as an oath. Omerta is an extreme form of group loyalty and solidarity in dealing with other parties, especially the authorities. Unlike the Yakuza or the Cosa Nostra mafia which emphasizes the Omerta code, modern terrorists often issue statements and demands. They want to attract the attention of the wider community and use the mass media to voice their struggle message.
