It is like fire against fire. When we observe the government’s current counterterrorism policies in coping with terror, the color of violence is bold and more prominent.

As a result, various marginalized groups such as women and children in a circle of terror are increasingly in a position of vulnerability to being manipulated by terror activities that stem from the expression of the power of patriarchy. It is at this point that a gender perspective that cares about marginalized subjects needs to be presented as the main narrative in counterterrorism efforts.
