Francisco Jiménez de Cisneros has occupied a shifting and uncertain place in the history of Western Europe in the sixteenth century. Historians have experienced considerable difficulty trying to pin him down in broad historical categories: he was a humanist, except for when he burned Muslim books in order to suppress their text-based philosophy.

Terrorism is a gigantic problem in our world today. The truth is, as big of a problem as it’s become; it is still one of the least understood topics in law enforcement. The research in this area is very controversial, and is widely disagreed upon by scholars, so I thought I’d take this time to apply some modern criminal deterrence theories to terrorism.
