With regret I disagree with you Sir. Terrorism can and does succeed. Communism was based on terror and ruled over USSR for 70 years. Nazis and Hitler came to power thru democratic means but terrorized the whole world for almost 15 years. Same thing happened in Italy.
In modren times Israel is controlling lands occupied in 1967 war thru terror. India is doing the same thing in Kashmir since 1954 (when it was annexed, until then Kashmir had a special position). Saddam Hussein ruled Iraq thru terror so did Shah of Iran and Taliban did the same thing in Afghanistan.
Terrorism therefore does succeed though not in the long term. But in the long term we all be dead.
The problem is that we always believe that we will be the last person to die after everyone else expires. Any empire built on terror ended with destruction and dishonour. We built Pakistan with dignity and tactful politics of Quaid e Azam. No Jihadist made the British agree to give up Pakistan but Quaid made it happen. Now Jihadists want to hijack our Pakistan for which they have no credit at all.
