•Terrorists are fiercely anti-status quo; they seek to bring about change or chaos.
•Terrorism strikes vulnerable society, not necessarily unjust ones.
•Terrorists’ weapons of choice are often crude and cheap, however, they can be highly sophisticated.
•Usually directed at innocents or world leaders.
