On November 13, 2015 Paris, France was attacked. This was a terrible traumatizing experience for many that end tragically for countless families. Isis is behind this and him and his “army” want you to be afraid of them, but what we really need to do is mourn the loss of our loved ones and continue on with our lives. People like Isis do this to get publicity, to prove a point, and most of all make us scared of them. So we think of them as a threat, we face so many fears throughout our lives and this is just another one we need to stand up against. We all need to unite against this and any other kind of tragedy that we face.
Many people are just confused about the fact that people do suicide bombing and no one really knows why they do it. I personally do not know the truth behind this but, I have a few thoughts about it. We don’t really know why they would do this, the mental state of the person could be a massive factor in their decision to do this. The believes of them could make them think that if they don’t do this then they aren’t really part of the “group”. We do not know for sure but possible threats could of occurred and the people maybe couldn’t risk what they threatened. My final thought of the suicide bombers and the one I strongly believe in would be that. Maybe because, they have a poor quality of life they think that they will “die with dignity”. Maybe they think that if they do this it will make their leader proud in a sense or they will be the hero who sacrificed their life for the groups believes. They already have a horrible life so why try to fix it when you can end yours and many other innocent people around you.
In some weird way maybe it makes the best sense for them to do this, I personally don't think that suicide bombing, bombing in generally, or attacking in any way shape or form is the answer to any of this and retaliation won’t get anyone anywhere. Yes this is a horrible thing that happened to Paris and many other locations around the world, but if we just continue our lives and don’t show any signs of weakness then hopefully Isis and all the other enemies will leave us alone.
