How Terrorism Is Fueled
An imperial nation’s desire to control other lands (colonialism) and keep spreading its power (expansion) often uses differences and disputes between different countries. These can be related to religion, nation, or political disputes due to borders.
They use the divide-and-rule policy by first leading opponents to fight, and when they get weak, they rule. That’s how they can steal the resources and sell their arms. And also using them against enemies by sitting their puppets on thrones.
Today, the imperialist arms industry is flourishing in different regions of the world due to terrorism, civil war, and chaos.
With the end of national and regional conflicts, this industry is sure to suffer.
