Abstract
Despite the fact that most individuals would claim to understand what terrorism is, there is startling lack of a universally accepted definition. The use of violence or the threat of violence is the sole overarching thread among the literally hundreds of definitions currently in use. Only "Political" and "fear, terror emphasised" are the other components that are included in more than 50% of definitions. As a result, some governments view some terrorist organisations as having the right to fight. This hinders international collaboration. The motivation behind terrorism is different from those of other crimes; it is carried out with a specific goal and strategic objective in mind.
