I'm not sure who or what you're responding to, but it's clearly not what I posted...

  Here, I'll help: "If you alter the way these attacks are covered by the media, they will stop being so destabilizing." "... how do we actually stop kids from dying? Looking at the big picture and changing the way we respond to attacks is one such way."

    I don't see the contradiction here. I'm not fluent in English but I thought the sentences were pretty clear. Stop the morbid coverage -> less fear and panic -> terrorism is less effective -> terrorists have a smaller incentive -> fewer people die

      Ah I see, apologies for the misunderstanding then! You probably meant something more like "If you alter the way these attacks are covered by the media, they will stop being so frequent." That said, my intuition (I doubt anyone knows for sure, and the reason varies) is that these attacks are not to be famous, but more so out of revenge ("justice") or frustration.
