This essay examines the problem of terrorism, particularly the phenomenon of terrorism in Western democracies. The objectives of this paper is to approach: (a) the concept of terrorism and the moral dimension of the problem, (b) the difference in the nature of armed violence in totalitarian and democratic regimes, (c) the moral impact of these operations, especially within the Greek experience.

An issue that preoccupied me in the face of this debate, is whether one can think or talk about the Mission Box without discussing Alexandrou and possibly the opposite as well. Is the Mission Box a political allegory or is it more than that? I propose to view the Box as an existential drama.
