Can you buy a BMW? Do you have the military power to take one? Does that justify blowing up a disco? Get real, terrorism is extortion, played with blood for money or power. The only difference between the Mafia and the Palestinians is the Mafia knows they are killers and crooks, where Palestinians Terrorists are too stupid to realize it, and think they are going to a heavenly brothel for killing innocent people.

I fully agree that capitalism is a better way of getting what you want. That is to say, it is much better to trade for things than to use force to obtain things. Conflicts involving force do occur, however, and they often involve a disagreement about reality. There is a clear disagreement about reality between radical muslims and Israelis. I believe that my statement, taken in context, is essentially correct.
Perhaps it is better stated thus: People who believe that they must use force to obtain what they want, but do not have sufficient military strength to win a direct engagement with their opponent, often use terrorism in an attempt to gain what they wish.
