Statistically, your bathtub is about 10,000 times more likely to harm or kill you than a terrorist. You will not hear about your bathtub or the car exhaust or your device addictions in the news. You will hear about terrorists. Your chance of directly harmed by a terrorist act over 5 years is ~1 in 20,000,000.
Use of silverware is probably more dangerous to you than terrorists. But your government’s reaction to and invention of terrorists and the uses of terror are directly dangerous to every single citizen, and rob them of crucial assets, benefits, liberties, health and opportunity.
“I do not irrationally and disproportionately fear Muslim bomb-wielding jihadists or white, gun-toting nutcases. But I rationally and proportionately fear those who do, and the regimes such terror empowers. History demonstrates that governments are capable of mass murder and enslavement far beyond what rogue militants can muster. Industrial-scale terrorists are the ones who wear ties, chevrons, and badges. But such terrorists are a powerless few without the supine acquiescence of the terrorized many. There is nothing to fear but the fearful themselves.”
