Question: Criminologist Gwynn Nettler outlined all terrorism shares six characteristics:

No Rules-No moral limitations on the type or degree of violence that terrorists can use.

No Innocents-No respecter of persons; from soldiers to children; all are game.

Economy-Kill one, frighten 10,000

Publicity-Terrorists seek publicity, and publicity encourages terrorism.

Meaning-Terrorist acts give meaning and significance to the lives of terrorists.

No Clarity-Beyond the immediate aim of destructive acts, the long-term goals of terrorists are likely to be poorly conceived or impossible to implement. Terrorism that succeeds escalates.

Select one of these case studies, do further research on it and complete a 2-page essay discussing the application of these six characteristics in the event you select.
