Terrorism
The definition of terrorism depends upon which side it is coming from. Bush/ Blair's definition for incidents of rail/road bombing is terrorism. Blasts causing destruction of high-rise buildings including hotels are terrorism. al-Qaeda's definition of terrorism is mass killing of people including women and children in Iraq and Afghanistan. It is a vicious circle. Who will stop such terrorism? If the theory of revenge continues, terrorism will only escalate. Unfortunately, now terrorism is directed towards the Muslim community of the world. Thanks to the western press and media! The theory of Mr. Bush on the origin of terrorism is least understood, as he is the person responsible for escalating this and causing death and destruction in the whole world. Is he the custodian of the whole world's morality? Did he receive the UN mandate to police the whole world?
Bush wants to remain in power as well as in the focus of world media.
I believe the UN has to play a strong neutral role to overcome this problem.
