How to END Terrorism!!!!!!!!
Let me pose a thought, hopefully this can garner a decent discussion.
Terrorism lives through the media: TV cameras, newspapers, and the Internet. A terrorist's main objectives all circle around one central theme, which is getting their political message out to the public. Using TV cameras and now the Internet, they behead innocent people and hold hundreds of men, women, and children hostage in public schools. Terrorism needs the media in order for them to survive. Think of it this way, in America, how does an average joe schmoe get his ass in the news? The reality is that it's nearly impossible; news stations want the juiciest, dirtiest, most moving, and most shocking material they can get their hands on. Joe Schmoe can't provide that. Terrorism can, on the other hand. This brings me to my final point. Since the blood of terrorism flows through the media of it's host, could we, as the targets, simply ignore them entirely? Theoretically it would confuse the fuck out of them; they wouldn't know what to do. If we, from a media standpoint, worked together so that all our media outlets, Fox News, CNN, BBC, etc, refused to air or even speak of any act of terrorism, wouldn't that stop it altogether? Note that our militaries would still be acting just as strong to kill them off; I only suggest cutting them off completely from a media standpoint. Both Kerry and Bush believe strongly that terrorism will always be constant, that new terrorists will regroup and keep coming to replace the old ones. I whole-heartedly agree with both of them. What my argument does though, is provide a hope, at least in my mind, that terrorism can be defeated. An argument isn't an argument unless you talk about the downfalls, however. This path would be extremely hard, especially at the start. Terrorism levels would probably PEAK as soon as they realized what our strategy was. I predict that peak because they'd basically be fighting for their own existence; since they feed of our media. If and when Al Jazeera becomes part of the ComCast basic cable package, I think this has a chance at working. Hopefully this will get a good discussion going, and try to leave out the bipartisan shit; keep this thing focused. Discuss! |

Elect John Kerry.. apparently, magically, all these beheadings, bombings, and slaughter of innocent children will poof in a cloud of smoke if Kerry is elected... And get this, he doesn't even have to give solutions, he promises victory! What a guy!

P.S. I'm also writing to a 9-11 family letting them know I am TOTALLY against fighting "terrorism" because people may get hurt. |

As far as what Downtime wrote, theoretically its one of the few things that would work but it would never happen, if for any other reason because Bush loves to keep us in fear. |

this is the dumbest thing I've read today :Oh crap
- You think 9/11 should not have made the news? - The 1st Ammendment protects Freedom Of The Press - If one news outlet doesn't cover it (or even if all the outlets you mentioned didn't cover it) someone else would, and the public will go there for information instead. Your idea is very similar to the 'voluntarily get rid of TGPs and all the free porn so paysites make more money' idea that gets randomly posted here every so often. Noone is going to be the first to pull down their galleries. And even if everyone on GFY did, there would always be others ready to take over that market share. |

Yes, that would be the end of terrorism. The end of freedom and democracy too.

Finally, those who watch FOX News probably aren't aware of this, but a Journalist's job is to inform people of facts; not participate in politics or promote an agenda. They are supposed to be objective observers, like a cameraman on the Discovery Channel filming a lion stalking a zebra. His job is to record nature, not to save the zebra.

Yes, let's shut up the media. Raise the stakes what it takes to make the news. This is brilliant. Can I be in charge of editing the internet? I have some clever ideas:thumbsup

And CNN does a better job? Of promoting their view? Please acknowledge that the media left or right is showing us what THEY want to. :warning |

Terrorism does not need the media. |

All your sarcasm aside, I'm aware the internet did not exist during the times of the Vikings and ancient Greece. People still congregrate in public areas, and still have eyes and ears, do they not? |
