Terrorism is often associated with violence, but that is because violence is a very effective means of intimidation. Yet âviolence is not essential to terrorism and, in fact, most acts of terrorism are nonviolentâ (Wellman 1979: 250â51). The last claim seems false on any non-circular interpretation.dherents of consequentialism judge terrorism, like every other practice, solely by its consequences. Terrorism is not considered wrong in itself, but only if it has bad consequences on balance. The innocence of the victims does not change that.
