Why is the discussion about "terrorism" in particular, unless in order to confuse. The State's interest in the suppression of all crime is uniform, whatever crime may be defined to be. There is no relevance to the particulars unless precisely to eliminate the awareness of generalities that is necessary for successful democratic self-government. Why not try a draft in which the proposition, "counter-terrorism" is replaced by the proposition "policing and order enforcement"? What happens to the rest of the thought process involved?
