Absolutely so many folk fall for the "party line".
One could ask he question why are we getting involved in places like the Middle East. And there is an obvious answer if one looked at the whole picture.
As I raised earlier this fixation on terrorists is a part of a device to support political agendas irrelevant to us but we are fed the line that terrorism is a threat so great we must indulge the fear without looking at the numbers...and any opportunity to beat it up is seized upon..like Martin place..that was a crazy man not a lone wolf terrorist cell..but guess what Mr and Mrs Average even Mr and Mrs Above Average falls for the line.

It all comes down to education and with education one can put things in context...which is all you rightly call for.

The R right has so much to answer for ... Their elite arrogance is know to everyone but them.
