"How can you have a war on Terrorism when war itself is Terrorism." -Howard Zinn


                 There is a saying "One man's terrorist is another man's Freedom fighter". However, I oppose this strongly. How a Syrian child is stopping the freedom of the terrorists there? How did the innocent victims of 9/11 affected the independence of Al-Queda or what do the sufferers of 26/11 blasts have to do with them? 

                 Terrorism is a symbol of our failure as a civilization, as species. For the benefit of a few fat cats, terrorism still exists. There will come a day when we will have to come clean on our actions, days of terrible, terrible retribution by the powers that are. From Vietnam war to today, this evil has left us with many heart-breaking scenes which depict the butchering of humanity.

Here is the list of 11 heart-breaking scenes left by Terrorism.

1. The 3-year old Syrian child

"I am going to tell God everything" were the
last words of this Syrian boy 
The above photo is the clear depiction of the cruelty of the Terrorism. "I am going to tell God everything" were his last words. Rest in peace, my little brother. The place you reached is far better than this evil world.

2. The Girl in the picture

The Girl in the Picture
                                   
This is the famous picture popularly called as "The Girl in the Picture" which was photographed during Vietnam war.. The girl Kim Phuc is the emblem of human suffering during aerial Napalm bombing during Vietnam war. She was very badly burnt then and tore off her burning clothes. Then, she was saved by the photographer Nick Ut. Now, she is living in Ajax, Ontario and she is a goodwill ambassador of UNESCO.

3. 4- year old Syrian Child

It is a heart-wrenching moment a 4- year Syrian child frozen in fear with her arms raised and lips tightly puckered when she mistook camera for a gun. Adi Hudea, the child lost her father in Hama bombing in 2012 and till then, she is living as a refugee. In last 5 years of Syrian civil war, nearly 222,000 lives including nearly 12,000 children.

4. 9/11 attacks
This is a scene of 9/11 attacks. The attacks were said
to be done by Al-Queda but the truth remains as a conspiracy
9/11 attacks, which swallowed 2,977 lives and injured 6,000 is marked as the worst terrorist attack in the modern history. Though the world looked at Al-Queda for the cause of attacks, the truth might be different. There are many theories which proves that there was a foreknowledge about these attacks to the higher government officials. Whatsoever, whoever has done this barbaric act, should be penalized for causing this extensive death and destruction.

5. Can you spot the terrorist?

This is the family picture of Osama bin laden along with his 21 siblings in Sweden in 1971. He was 14 year-old then. Did anyone guessed that he would become a violent terrorist then?

6. 26/11 Mumbai attacks

On 26th November, 2008, 10 Pakistani members of Lashkar-e-Taiba carried out a series of coodinated shooting and bombing attacks lasting for 4 days. Nearly, 257 people were killed and 713 were injured during the attack. Ajmal Kasab was the only attacker who was captured alive and later, he confiscated that the attacks were conducted with the help of Pakistan's intelligence Agency ISI. David Headly, an American terrorist of Pakistani origin helped ISI in plotting it. Kasab was hanged on 21st November, 2012.

7. The protesting Buddhist monk

The Buddhist monk Quang Duc sets himself in ablaze in protest of atrocities of Vietnam government on Buddhists in 1963. The monk remarkably neither moved nor screamed but died silently to ashes. Malcolm.W.Browne, the photographer, won world press award for this photo. This self-immolation of the monk stood as a scar in human history.

8. The "Kill Team" of NATO 

The brutalities of "The Kill Team" in Afghanistan

This is indeed terrorism. The atrocities of "The kill team" in the name of liberating Afghans cannot be forgotten. In 2010, during a 4-month period, this kill team murdered many Afghan civilians (they killed some terrorists also). The photograph shows Jeremy Murlock, US army corporal, celebrating his first kill (Gul Mudin,15 year old was the victim) in Afghanistan. Later, he was charged for his bloodlust to a sentence of 24 years in prison.

9. The Falling Man

The photograph is taken by Richard Drew, an Associated Press photographer when a man was falling fro North tower of the World Trade Center during 9/11 attack. The identity of this person is not yet officially confirmed but it is believed that he was one of the trapped crew who tried to escape from the fire and billowing smoke. Nearly, 200 people lost their lives while trying to jump to safety. "This photograph is perhaps the most powerful image of despair in the beginning of 21st century" says D. Thompson of Moore Theological College.

 10. Peshawar school attack
