 Terrorism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Terrorism is designed to subvert existing political atmospheres, often with the aid of the mass media's influence.
While terrorism refers to both motives and acts of terror by a group or an individual for a political or ideological reason, the act of terror is a crime under the jurisdiction of most countries in the world as well as various United Nations protocols.
This is contrary to the idea of lone-wolf terrorism as it is conceieved by the FBI, and asserts that for an act to be considered terrorist, it must be perpetrated by a like-minded group, and not a single individual acting alone.
