A political scientist by the name of Jeanne Knutson once said that there are two thresholds that terrorists have to be concerned about: One is a threshold of attention in that they must do something interesting enough or they will be ignored. The other is the level of violence in that if they go too far, they will provoke a backlash.
Une politologue appelé Jeanne Knutson a dit que les terroristes doivent se préoccuper de deux choses : l'attention, c'est-à-dire qu'ils doivent faire quelque chose de suffisamment intéressant sinon on les ignorera; puis la violence, c'est- à-dire que s'ils vont trop loin ils vont provoquer un effet de ressac.
