ABSTRACT
When a terrorist act is done, the concerted expressions of horror and unqualified condemnation from all quarters are likely to cause in anarchists a dulling of the shock. A seeking for excuses and justifications in reaction against the presentation of the total blamelessness of the victim and the absolute lack of grounds for the violent act of the perpetrators. In Cyprus British soldiers went in terror and eventually the British left, but the majority of the predominant population wanted independence. It is not proven that the terrorism was a necessary expression of the will. The killing of the police chief which resulted in the persecution of the six Basques who recently aroused the sympathy of nearly the whole world can be clearly understood as a rational act. If he was in fact killed by a political opponent, because this was a particular man who was persecuting and torturing people who had no hope of his removal by any other means.
