Don't see anything barf-worthy in the article. All seems factual and conforms with a variety of other studies; it conflicts with the whole "poverty causes terrorism" line; most terrorists are wealthier and better educated than the general population they come from.

It was either (BARF) or excerpt. Ineptly, ended up with (BARF) and excerpt.

I don't remember anyone saying that poverty causes terrorist. What causes terrorism are people who are brainwashed to the point of fanaticism. Most of the suicide bombers are young people who have been indoctrinated from an early age. You don't see the middle aged terrorists( if there are any) going out to bomb people. Besides, your average terrorists ISN'T a suicide bomber. When is the last time you saw one of their leaders screaming Allahu Akbar and pulling a detonator cord on a vest bomb? Never. These kids are betrayed by their leaders. Islam is a violent religion, their Koran tells them to kill infidels, so they do. Infidels don't have to do anything to the muslims, they just have to exist, and they will be killed. Terrorists may be educated, but they are ignorant.
