Crime is always illegal, whatever the form it has. But terrorism and organised crime have a different perspective. So, this paper is taking the note on ??Terrorism and Organized Crime: Similarities and Differences. In recent time, terrorism is increasing day by day. So many groups are there in this world who are doing these terrorist activities. Though to some extent, terrorism and organized crime are same, but they are not organised all the time.

This paper gave a clear view of this similarity and differences.

Web sources should be evaluated based on the site sponsor, among other things, such as: How long has the site existed? Is there sufficient information to judge credentials, authenticity, credibility, and bias? Are facts supported by cited sources? Is the material published only on the web? Wikipedia is not an acceptable source.
