Now, terrorism is just a tool in the hand of the state to wash its hands, betray its people, and attack a community or group or religion. The descretion which the state enjoys is highly dangerous.

It is not that we do not have strong laws, we do have strong laws but we do not have a strong will to enforce those laws. The system (political parties, government,law enforcement, the tilt towards socialism, social shaming and threatening people...

Anti-Terrorism laws need a slight tweaking.Ther should no trials, no courts and a single judgement - Death sentence with a bullet. Result - Faster disposal of cases, fair judgement and of course lot savings of taxpayers' money.
