Controversial opinion here but kids throwing rocks are not old enough to be considered terrorists yet

Why did you choose to make this irrelevant comment. That’s not what they’re counting as terror attacks. Also, the vast vast number of kids detained are released directly back to their parents.

False. In sentencing they may get some credit for being kids.

Why do you not read before writing down something. We do put such kids in jail.

What about that terror attack they prevented during the funeral ,as pallbearers were carrying a coffin of that journalist? Was that counted? </sarcasm>

Lol, sure they did...
Just like the TSA prevents another 9/11 twice a week.
It's very easy to claim actions have an effect, humans are hardwired to believe it because of risk/reward. It's why people with OCD think flipping a light 3 times keeps the house from burning down.

We examined the statistics we collected and found not irregularitue.
Imagine being so paranoid that ordinary civil disobedience and unofficial migration causes you to feel systematically terrified.

Isn't that the literal definition of terrorism?

Do you know a modern country that doesn’t try to prevent terrorist attacks?

Quite possible. Israel looks for planned raids. The bulk of the population want peace/prosperity so most tips come from these people as they see how Isis and other radical simply destroy their own peoples houses and businesses as part of extortion rackets.
