Justice and Equality will eradicate terrorism automatically! - By Sunimal Alles – April 4, 2007

Many world leaders talk about “Eradicating Terrorism” today, mainly by trying to eliminate terrorists physically, through counter-terrorism initiatives. This could be an efficient strategy if all “terrorists” were ready and available to be eliminated and their countries became “Police” states. However, I am concerned, as police states don’t last long, and leaders may never attain their objectives, even if they spend all the funds in their treasuries , unless they eliminate the creation of terrorists. They must first commit themselves and those that are under their orders to clearly study and analyze the reasons why “Terrorists” exist and how they were created. I say, “Created” as no terrorist was born with a destructive weapon in his/her hands and an objective to kill. “Terrorists” are still being created the world over, as very few leaders are listening to the issues of commoners and no measures are being taken to fulfill their needs. When commoners’ voices are not heard, they join others that “Think” like them to manifest their discontent, first in a non-violent manner but later with arms and violent attacks. Therefore, the eradication of “terrorists” needs to start where they are being created. My research since 1975 indicates that it starts in oppressed and marginalized neighborhoods and communities. I also found that the process of creation of an individual “Terrorist” starts in the womb of a mother that has been subjected to INJUSTICE. I found that there are various ways in which a mother is subjected to injustice. Some originated in her home and by her parents, where she was denied the right to express her wishes and refused the right to follow a course of study aligned to her natural talents and aspirations. Some were and are being denied the right to select their life’s partner, which eventually leads to disharmony in the marriage. Some marry without taking into consideration their level of mental evolution and future aspirations (A woman is a human being who can think, has a mind that is constantly evolving whether educated or not). We must remember that a mother is a primary link in the creation of the next generation, and protecting girl children against premature arrangements (such as selecting their future professions and partners) and ensuring that their will is fulfilled will assure that there will never be any future creation of terrorists. A traumatized or single mother giving birth to a child is the primary place where a terrorist is created. Therefore, it is in the interest of everyone, that we have efficient child and mother protection and care systems where all families are taken care of. Special attention should be taken to care for families that were marginalized or UN-JUSTLY treated in the past, due to ethnic, political, economic or any other reason. This is because these are the families where terrorists are born and incubated.
