“[Terror  is] primarily a weapon of the strong—overwhelmingly, in fact. It is  held to be a weapon of the weak because the strong also control the  doctrinal systems and their terror doesn’t count as terror. Now that’s  close to universal. I can’t think of an historical exception—even the  worst mass murderers view the world that way” - Noam Chomsky
