First Image realists, those who find the causes of war within the nature of man, would say terrorism like acts of the KKK stem from,” Selfish [ness], misdirected aggression, [and] selfishness” (Segui). The KKK inherently seek the oppression of those unlike them and those that don’t share likeminded views. Which is completely unreasonable and has no valid reason. The use of terrorism also aims to create mistrust among men and provocation for those to do brutal responses. Kydd and Walter describe certain acts of terrorism, “work by playing on the mistrust between two groups and succeed when one or both parties fail to sign or implement a settlement,” which is just playing on the faults of man and creating more mistrust of the regime (pg. 73). Great mistrust also creates a willingness to act before being used first, “ Thomas Hobbes argued that if individuals mistrust each other they have an incentive to initiate an attack rather than risk being attacked by surprise” (Kydd & Walter pg. 57). There are others like Marx, second image realist, who would describe the reasons behind terrorism as the faults within the state. Terrorism is brought about with the unresolved issues between state and its citizens. For those who seek policy change like Al-Qaeda with its Arab regime, problems reside with the inequality within the state. There are many authoritarian governments that create an imbalance of power between the people and regime. The imbalance causes certain individuals to act in defense or in response to it. Dr. Segui said, “Deprived countries use war to achieve security,” deprived groups within the state will seek their own security when it is not being provided.
