Perpetrators will take terrible actions without any notice and make people fear and panic, that will force people to compromise with them and allow them to achieve their ultimate goals eventually.

They might be an armed political party or a radical religious organization. They take illegal violent actions against countries or people who are opposite to them. Sometimes, their intention or purpose might be an important issue and we should take it into our consideration and help them to deal with these complicated problems.
