It is asking for YOUR agreement.
From Internet:
The Reign of Terror, commonly The Terror (French: la Terreur), was a period of the French Revolution when, following the creation of the First French Republic, a series of massacres and numerous public executions took place in response to revolutionary fervour, anticlerical sentiment, and accusations of treason by the Committee of Public Safety.

to a greater extent the terror was a neccessary evil however it was not tht neccessary .it taught the french and other people a lesson,it showed no mercy to those against the revolution,it showed that unloyalty was not a choice at that time ,it protected the french from foreign invaders ,emigrants and counterrevulutionaries . However this evil wasnt necessary because the terror was too harsh, killed even the inocent without trial ,it also practised terrorization in a way .

Overall, I partially agree with the statement that the Reign of Terror was a necessary evil. While it did serve some necessary purposes, such as protecting the revolution and its people, it also went too far in its methods and caused unnecessary suffering.
