What is a pneumonia like biological agent likely to be used in a terrorist attack?
A biological agent like anthrax, tularemia, or Legionella pneumophila could be used in a terrorist attack to cause pneumonia-like symptoms. These agents can be dispersed as aerosols, leading to respiratory infections and potentially widespread outbreaks. Early detection, rapid response, and appropriate treatment are crucial in mitigating the impact of such an attack.
How is anthrax used as a weapon of terrorism?
Bacillus anthracis spores are easily produced in mass quantities in a lab. They are tiny, easily spread, can be passed from plant to animal to human, and cause easily be fatal to an unvaccinated population. The application of the spores is undetectable without special testing, and can survive for very long periods of time even in harsh conditions. The most notorious means of using anthrax as a bioterrorism weapon was contamination of cattle feed cakes in 1944 and the American scare of spores being mailed to individuals in the media and Senate.
Interesting question! As far as I can discover, the answer isn't obvious at all. Let me explain: Interviews and intelligence of terrorist organizations ranging from the IRA to Al-quaida, Baader-Meinhoff, and others show some remarkable, unexpected similarities. They typically do not have a cohesive, well-understood political doctrine or goal. And even when there is a political manifesto of sorts in place, the actions of the group typically don't facilitate this: * They're own people often don't know or understand their own manifesto. * They rarely conduct dialogues with the regime they're trying to modify, so the means of compromise or even capitualtion is closed off. * They frequently attack other organizations that share their goals. * They often do not effectively claim credit for actions, thus making said action a completely moot point * They often change doctrine and direction with no particular or apparent reason. * When their demands are met, for whatever reason, this does not cause the group to stand down. This applies equally to so-called religious terrorists; they quite often don't understand the religion their group esposes, nor do they seem to want to learn. An example:(see link) A number of the 9/11 Al Quaida group first intended to fight in Chechnya. When they couldn't get the paperwork together to enter Chechnya, they decided to attack America instead. There was no discernable direction in a political or religious sense at all. So what is it then? Actually, most terrorist groups of the late 20th and early 21st centuries seem to follow very closely the dynamic we observe in modern day street gangs. That is to say, an amazingly strong need or desire for community and culture. Here are some examples: * Frequently, families will all join the same group, even if that group doesn't match that family's focus or interest. The same applies to village members and friends. * These families (for lack of a better word) will frequently change groups, sometimes to terrorist organizations with a sharply divergent manifesto. * They use symbology akin to gang sign. * Status is critically important within the group. A lot of this is true of the Crips, Bloods and Latin Kings, where solidarity of family, group, and neighborhood is a far more prevalent motivator than political or theological doctrine.

What are the effects of terrorism on people?
Well, think about it first from a physical aspect. By that I mean the actual, tangible damage terrorism does. Recently the Boston Marathon was victim to terrorism by bombing. Those bombs did terrible damage to both the location and the people involved. Same thing with the Twin Tower bombings on september 11th, 2001. Note that there are, unfortunately, far more instances of terrorism in the world, but I'm going to stick with those two.
Despite the considerable physical damage terrorism can do, mental damage is, unequivocally, what does the most damage. The runners of the Boston Marathon were fairly prominent runners. It's an exclusive marathon, you can't just join on a whim, you need to be an experienced runner. Thanks to the bombing-induced injuries sustained, many of these competitors will never be able to run again. Then you have to consider the family members of the injured and deceased. The damage emotional loss like that can do is insurmountable.
Even someone who isn't personally affected is, in actuality, still affected by terrorism. Have you ever heard people complain about airport security? Well, that inconvenience exists because of terrorism. Terrorism is something that instills fear, anger, and sadness into people. It's a horrible concept that we may never fully eradicate. However, we'll always be working hard to reduce it's occurrences as much as possible.
How many terrorists are atheists?
It depends on how you count it.
Almost nobody has ever killed someone by being motivated by the premise that there are no gods, full-stop. This is the same way that nobody has ever killed someone by being motivated by the premise that there are gods, full-stop. However, when you talk about a certain religion, that religion will have an ideology in addition to the simple belief in gods, such as what those gods want people to do to demonstrate belief. Since Atheists do not have gods, no beliefs about what gods want are relevant.
However, most Atheists subscribe to a number of other ideologies, which can lead to terrorism and violence. Probably the most notable non-theistic ideology that some Atheists have endorsed is Communism. (This is not to say that being an Atheist makes you a Communist or more inclined to be a Communist, but since Communism has no divine components, it is perfectly compatible with Atheism, just like Democracy is for the same reasons.) Communist Terrorists are quite numerous throughout history, operating on multiple continents. However, there were numerous Theists in the ranks of Communist terrorism as well, making it difficult to parse out the exact number of Atheists who were involved. Another non-theistic ideology that Atheists have endorsed is nationalism. While there are certainly forms of nationalism which are strongly religious, such as Greek Nationalism and Religious Zionism, there have been forms of nationalism that are Atheist-friendly, such as Secular Zionism and or the OAS in the Algerian Civil War. Most of the members of the Irgun and the Lehi (also called the Stern Gang), which were Zionist terror groups, were Atheists with Jewish heritage. (Thankfully, Israel disbanded these organizations once it was clear what kinds of atrocities they were committing, but the point remains that these were mostly Atheist-led terror groups.)
However, the common canard by Atheists that Atheists have not been members of terrorist groups or repressive/violent groups is not borne out by the evidence.
How much of the world's population of Muslims are terrorists?

It's difficult to give an exact average time as it varies greatly from person to person.

Hezbollah is an organization and therefore has a membership, not a population.
It does not provide its own information on its size, but several estimates are worth considering.

According to Israel's Jerusalem Post, Hezbollah has 41,000 fighters and according to the Iranian Fars News Agency, Hezbollah has up to 65,000 fighters.
How can young people show a responsible attitude towards population growth?

Is terrorism an inevitable social evil?
No – it is merely a generally effective way to get people to do what you want. People who are terrified give in to demands easily, and as such terrorism has been around for a long, long time. But that doesn't mean it is inevitable.
You do what you believe and believe in what you do?
I am an eclectic Wiccan, which means I follow Wicca yet I do not adhere to every principle or idea strictly; I follow what I believe in and only what I believe in. This means I practice and believe in things related to many other cultures and religions, but mostly incorporate the practices of Wicca.
I believe in the duality of God as male and female.
I believe God manifests in nature and created all nature - meaning that God is within every living thing.
That is the core of my beliefs.
As for what I do, I celebrate eight Sabbats a year, which celebrate the changing of the seasons because they show Gods behaviour on earth and provide us with food and warmth ect.
I also practice witchcraft which involves appealing to Gods will to provide healing for another person, amongst other kind things.
And I pray and meditate with the divine, like any other faith.
