Terrorism doesnt warrant fear says report Original Source Link: (May no longer be active)    http://news.ninemsn.com.au/article.aspx?id=67557 http://news.ninemsn.com.au/article.aspx?id=67557 Terrorism doesn't warrant fear: report Tuesday Oct 18 05:11 AEST There are fewer wars than there used to be, and terrorism does not warrant such widespread worry among the public, an Australian war expert has said. Andrew Mack, the director of the Human Security Centre in Vancouver, made the findings in his report into global trends in political violence, Fairfax newspapers report. He said wars were becoming less deadly, casualties from terrorist attacks were minimal and acts of genocide were becoming less common. The report, titled War and Peace in the 21st Century, suggests the Cold War brought about more benefits that are commonly acknowledged. The most severe conflicts - those with more than 1,000 casualties a year - declined by 80 per cent in the 1990s, the report found. The average battle deaths per conflict dropped from 38,000 in 1950 to 600 in 2002.
