Global Issues has plenty of fields, most or all of them are mainly killing the world. One of these struggles in the Earth is terrorism. Terrorism unfortunately is everywhere and is to be eradicated. It is actually the main struggle of Earth accompanied by poverty and water shortage. This problem is in Colombia with the FARC, Spain with ETA, USA with Al Qaeda, Peru with Sendero Luminoso, etc. These organizations all stand or stood up once about a principle they had or an ideal they desired to defend. Terrorism is a stone in the shoe for all governments. Not only for governments, but for the whole world, it is a extreme show of violence being done over nothing logical.
One of these terrorist/paramilitary organizations I am referring to is FARC in Colombia. This group is against ruling bourgeoisie, U.S, imperialism, multinational corporations and repressive violence by the military against the civil forces. Their ideals are focused on socialism, Marxism and left wing ideas. This group operates mainly in Colombia with the crime of kidnapping and drug distribution.
We consider that all children and students need to know about terrorism in some point of their lives. Everyone should just be aware of it and know that there is some danger going on in the streets of some countries. Not all people are good. We must inform our children and students about the danger of some groups like FARC and Al Qaeda and so they know about them. Educating about terrorism prevents kids from approaching or getting near it. Education is the main weapon against evil globally. TV and media are sources where kids can learn about violence but they might imitate the actions they see. In my opinion, children should be far away from those scenes at least for a little bit; peaceful solutions should be taught to them at all times and at the same time they should know the truth about the world.
Overall, we must understand that terrorism is wrong. We must raise awareness not only in children but in world citizens as a whole. We should begin first by teaching kids to be peaceful by not showing violence in media. The way to go is always through education.
