Answer to Question 1

Early terrorism in the United States was typically related to racial, labor, or anarchist reasons. Older definitions of terrorism involved the deliberate and unlawful use of threats or actual violence to inculcate fear with the intention to intimidate and coerce groups or governments to change their political, social or religious basis. Older types of terrorism had more tangible goals and because of this, conflicts could be potentially resolved through negotiation. New terrorism has religious belief that undergirds the violence. New terrorism is transnational's, groups are sometimes only loosely affiliated, targets can be innocent civilians, groups adapt quickly and technologically savvy, and new terrorism often lacks specific goals or maintains goals that are simply never going to be obtained.
