RE: How Do We Stop Terrorists from Recruiting the Youth?

in #life7 years ago

I can say how you should NOT try to stop them getting terrorist. Liek the US has done in the last 15 years.

The US financed and trained (I love to point that out, sorry) terror group Al Kaida was a small group when they crashed the planes in the towers.

Then the US started to bomb them.

They 10-folded in size after a few yerars.

Then the bombing was even stronger, Al Kaide partly destroyed.

ISIS, once an even smaller group, stepped in and took over the Al Kaida areas.

Very successful War on Terror! For the terrorists.

Sort:  

Good point. Also murdering Colonel Ghadafi who had the most stable country in africa, the highest standing of living, good education and housing, which then resulted in chaos and looting of their assets by terrorists did not help things either.

But was a huge dictator who starved his people

Really? Did he starve his people or just his enemies he was fighting militarily?
Especially after the US banking economic crises 2008 ff. where he lost billions and additional economic sanctions?

He had oil. Extracted by foreign companies so he didn't need his people. Still Lybia was the most developed land in Africa, according to the UN.

Ghadafis death in 2011 caused by foreign "intervention" caused a civil war in Lybia that may stop about now, with elections planed for 2018. But it still has cost more lives then Ghadafi.

Ghadafi may have been a dictator, but as far as those guys go, he was one of the best in regards to the people of his country.

Al-Queda was an even smaller group when the US financed their militant actions against the russians in the 70's
