As for terrorism growing globally, however, we need proof of this. So far, we don't have this proof; we only have hearsay. And some instances of what the US govt, this war-making and lying machine, has claimed to be terrorism wasn't really that. We can't rely on the govt's claims of acts being terrorism when it's a govt that constantly lies and very rarely tells the truth about anything that's important. Instead, we need proof and we don't get that from a LYING govt full of lying, ignorant, incompetent, ... officials.
Otoh, terrorism has been growing globally and the spreader is the US, with it's constantly expanding militarism, globally. The mere fact of US and NATO military expansion into Eurasia is TERRORISM and is sufficient to terrorize the whole world of us. Wars of aggression are terrorism on the most extreme scale, but the military expansionism is also very extreme terrorism, aka state terrorism.

And keep up the excellent activism, David! It's good to learn that there's some progress that's been made in this respect, the anti-war activism.
