Earlier chapters focused on the intersection of terrorism and tourism, but this depends on how terrorists changed their tactics to instill terror in society. Some decades ago, terrorists selected celebrities, important persons, or chief police officers as main target of their attacks, but now this role is filled by tourists and global travellers. The situation worsened when Abu Bakr Al-Baghdadi declared jihad against ‘tourism and modern hot-spots of consumption’. The concept of mobilities was historically manipulated by Western powers to impose a one-way discourse which aims to discipline the Other as inferior to European masters.
