Countering Terrorism

Terrorism is an act of violence whose psychological impact far exceeds its physical one. Any effective counter strategy must take this into consideration. In 19 forty four, near the end of world war two, the city of london was subjected to a fierce campaign of terror from germany's rockets. But instead of allowing despondency and worry to set in, prime minister winston churchill turned the bombing campaign to his advantage as an opportunity to rally and unify the british people.
