One time it loomed larged in the conflict of the Protestants with the Catholics. In
another chapter of the history, the Cold War era incited terrorist activities
affecting the whole world. The list consists infinite instances of terrorism e.g. the
Tamil Tigers, the North Ireland terrorism, the Islamic extremists etc. They all had
different condemnable motives. Every time they were tried to be crushed by
force, the reappeared stronger than before. Consequently, the need for bringing
the terrorists to the negotiating table was felt necessary. To simply put, dialogue
has always been used to curb terroism.

Force is all conquering, but it's victories are short lived.

-Abraham Lincoln.

divided opinion on the fact that terrosim is a menace for any country. It causes
nothing but disasters, in both human and economic losses, for the respective
country. In order to eradicate terrorism, three options are available. First is of a
military action. History is the epitome that it always results in a negative way by
showing the terroists as being the innocent and the oppressed. Second solution
is of surrender that no country can affird to choose. The last option is of dialogue.
This option not only ends the terrorism once and for all but also there is no
humand and economic loss. Along with this, it is heavily supported by the
populace. It also shows the seriousness of the government. Consequently,
hampering the false propaganda of the terrorists by which they recruit the
innocent public. It causes both immediate and long lasting impacts for that state.
The peace prevails and the envoronment of fear is removed. It restarts the
economic machinery. Besides this, the whole public is being reunited. All in all,
leading the state towards the path of prosperity. Hemce, a once failing state
starts to firm its feet for progress. with the help of pragmatic steps dialogue can
cause a very positive role. With the joint efforsts of the governement, society,
media etc., dialogue can eliminate terrorism. It can only succed with the sincere
efforsts from all ends.
