TERRORisM is the systematic use of terror, especially as a means
of coercion. In the international community, however, terrorism has
no universally agreed, legally binding, criminal law
definition.[1][2] Common definitions of terrorism refer only to
those violent acts which are intended to create fear (terror), are
perpetrated for a religious, political or, ideological goal; and
deliberately target or disregard the safety of non-combatants
(civilians). Some definitions now include acts of unlawful violence
and war. The use of similar tactics by criminal organizations for
protection rackets or to enforce a code of silence is usually not
labeled terrorism though these same actions may be labeled
terrorism when done by a politically motivated group.
while MiTiGATiON is the act of mitigating, or the state of being
mitigated; abatement or diminution of anything painful, harsh,
severe, afflictive, or calamitous; as, the mitigation of pain,
grief, rigor, severity, punishment, or penalty.
