Terrorism

   Terrorism in antiquity
   

Terrorism is, in the broadest sense, the use of intentional violence for political or religious purposes. The clearest indications of early uses of terrorism in ancient times came from the internal politics of Rome during some periods of the Republic, Depending on how broadly the term is defined, the roots and practice of terrorism can be traced at least to the 1st-century AD Sicarii Zealots, though some dispute whether the group, which assassinated collaborators with Roman rule in the province of Judea, was in fact terrorist. The first use in English of the term 'terrorism' occurred during the French Revolution's Reign of Terror.

The Sicarii  group of the Jewish Zealots who, in the decades preceding Jerusalem's destruction in 70 CE, strongly opposed the Roman occupation of Judea and attempted to expel them and their sympathizers from the area. The Sicarii carried sicae, or small daggers, concealed in their cloaks. At public gatherings, they pulled out these daggers to attack Romans and Roman sympathizers alike, blending into the crowd after the deed to escape detection

In the late 11th century, the  the Assassins arose, an offshoot of the Isma'ili sect of Shia Muslims. Led by Hassan-i Sabbah and opposed to Fatimid and Seljuq rule, the Hashshashin militia seized Alamut and other fortress strongholds across Persia. Hashshashin forces were too small to challenge enemies militarily, so they assassinated city governors and military commanders in order to create alliances with militarily powerful neighbors.

The Jacobin Club in France was formed by the revolutionary forces of the country. It included small shopkeepers, watch makers, pastry cooks, printers, daily wage earners and servants. It was the most popular and successful political club of France. The Jacobins supported the rights of property, but represented a much more middle-class position than the government which succeeded them in Thermidor. Their economic policy established the General maximum, in order to control prices and create stability both for the workers and poor and the revolution.

   Assymetrical conflicts
   

Asymmetrical warfare, unconventional strategies and tactics adopted by a force when the military capabilities of belligerent powers are not simply unequal but are so significantly different that they cannot make the same sorts of attacks on each other.

   Suicide bombers
   

Modern suicide bombings were introduced by Hezbollah in 1983 in Lebanon. Chechnyan militants fighting the Russian army joined the cadre of suicide bombers. The common denominator for most of the organizations that have used suicide attack tactics is their success in causing large-scale casualties and negatively influencing public morale, while at the same time failing to change regimes or forcing their governments to surrender to their demands. Beside religion, Alternately, another source found that at least in one country (Lebanon from 1983–1999) it was Islamists who influenced secular nationalists—their use of suicide attack spreading to the secular groups. Five Lebanese groups "espousing a non-religious nationalist ideology" followed the lead of Islamist groups in attacking by suicide, "impressed by the effectiveness of Hezbollah's attacks in precipitating the withdrawal of the 'foreigners' from Lebanon.

Sometimes its difficult to differentiate nationalist and religious purposes of suicide bomb. It has to be based on terrorists psychology.
