    “Terrorists are always a threat to someone. If we’ll be scared of them, it means they won.”

“Comrade wolf knows who to eat, as the saying goes. It knows when to eat and is not about to listen to anyone.”

“Terrorism has no nationality or religion.”

“ If you press a spring too hard, it will snap back.You must always remember this.”
