" A wolf in sheep's clothing."

Inglês

 This idiom " A wolf in sheep's clothing " has always been used to refer to a person who pretends to be kind and friendly for ages, hasn't it? Then we picture  wolves  as dangerous fearful unreliable animals, don't we?

However, according to some studies and reports: "Wolves are highly politicized animals, and because of this much misinformation follow wolves wherever they go.Common misconceptions about wolves can, unfortunately, cause real harm, as they promote irrational fear and spark unnecessary retaliation or misguided policy that it is not in the best interest of wolves ."

In addition to these  5 myths, there is also the myth of the " lone wolf  " terrorist. Analysts, journalists, and scholars have been quick to label each perpetrator of recent terrorist attacks as a "lone wolf ". However according to Jason Burke's report and research, "Any terrorist, however socially or physically isolated, is still part of a broader movement".

Jason Burke from theguardian.com/news has also pointed out that:

"In the 12 months before the London attack last week, the number of references to "lone wolves" exceeded the total of those over the previous three years, topping 1,000." He has also mentioned other phrases that security officials use when they report about "lone wolves".The phrases are:

 "freelancers";"unaffiliated";"cleanskins"and "homegrowns"

 The myth of the "lone wolf" terrorist written by Jason Burke is really very interesting and updated .Do not miss it.Click on the link below to understand clearly why the "lone wolf label " has been repeated so often in the news lately.

These Animals Can Be Very Hard To Understand. They Are Unpredictable Wild And Free While Living In Their Environment. Comparing Wolves To People Is Unfair Animals Sometimes Are So Much Better Than Human Beings. Nowadays People Are Still Killing Animals Every Second And Men Too. When A Terrorist Attack " The Lone Wolf " is Blamed And People Around Him Feel Bad And Sad. Europeans And American People Should Be Very Careful.

Wolves are smart animals. They must be respected , they are wild but they do not kill for sport as men do. Wolves kill to survive.
There are several myths about wolves and one of them is the lone wolf which is nowadays the label for terrorists . However, wolves don't hunt singly, I suppose these bomber men belong to a terrorist groups that are behind them. Terrible attacks have been happening lately , unfortunately !!!!
