Interpreting Terror

Interpreting Terror

How does the specter of terror fit in with the plan of God?

Religious terrorism has been called the communism of the 21st century. This fact was already clear to those who have been watching its spread during the 90’s, and now, since the carnage of September 11, it is clear to everyone. The intent of the terrorists is to shock, and by shocking to stimulate fear and alarm. And since the religious terror war is directed not against the military of a nation but against its culture, there are no civilians. No one is innocent; all are legitimate targets.
