Terrorism has certainly existed since before the dawn of recorded history (Merari 1990). Terrorism is the biggest threat to the entire world. Especially for Pakistan and in general for the whole world, the black storm of terrorism covers the entire Pakistani scenario. Now, when we talk about terrorism, it creates a horrible picture for Pakistanis. Pakistan is now affected by the negative effects of terrorism. The new dimensions of terrorism include suicide terrorism. Suicide terrorism is an international problem that endangers the well-being of the entire population, it is imperative that people of all faiths strengthen cooperation with each other to combat this problem. The main targets of suicide attacks in Pakistan are security agencies i.e. police, army, ISI, IB, MI and other armed forces. These suicide attacks create a horrible image of our society, destroy our national security and every person is in panic, especially in our security agencies, security personnel feel threatened and feel safe at their workplace. Most suicide terrorism is undertaken as a strategy aimed at achieving particular political objectives. The main purpose of suicide terrorism in Pakistan is to use the threat of punishment to force the government to change the policy on America, the war against terrorism and to stop the operation in Waziristan. The first suicide attack in Pakistan occurred on November 20, 1995, over the Egyptian embassy. The rate of suicide attacks increased in 2003 and up to hundreds and thousands of civilians and armed personnel were killed in these attacks. Western media have presented these suicide attacks as Islamic Jihad, but that is not the reality. Islam never supports suicide attacks on innocent civilians... center of paper.......Seer Anson, McGee Gill W., Serey Timothy T., Graen George B.
