Very well said. This forum is infested with such a type of persons who dont condem Pakistani Govt.

If you read articles written by sensible ppl like Eric Margolis you will know that Pakistan Govt itself fighting these terrorists who are consists of Afghans, Tajiks, Chechans, Uzbeks etc.

I think it's because those freakin' terrorists teach their little innocent children to hold guns and kill people right away from their birth and this trend passes on to the generations......(acutally i read in an article about five-yr old children getting trained to fight in a war!!!!! It was in Iraq)...

I do not know what is your source of information. It is a pahtoon culture of keeping a rifle from very little age. Pashtun are the ppl who live both side of border between Afghanistan and Pakistan.
When Pashtun is happy they fire in the air and if they get angry then they fire at each other.

All the 9/11 culprits were educated and came from affluent Saudi families.
This proves their is no relationship with poverty and terrorism.
Terrorism is result of failure of muslim countries to achieve Utopia they think Islam should bring them..for that failure they are blaming west and other non-muslim countries. They think by bringing them down they will go up and achieve Islamic Utopia

If a singer don't get roti, he will be on the road and can be swayed by any body in their nefarious designs. I feel every body needs a job, otherwise they will be doing the jobs given by terrorist leaders.
India and pakistan need to provide jobs for all the unemployed. Pakistan more so.What do you think?

i agree ignorance leads to terroism and brainwashing too... if govts would guide ppl in the rt direction perhaps these violent acts can be avoided and ppl can live civilized...

There can be an end to poverty but not to greed.

Very true, Greed has taken many shapes. One religion wants all the humanity follow their religion. Other thinks their religion is better and every body becomes like them. Gaddi pe baitha, minister soche ab ye gaddi to permanent ho jaye,us ke liye kuch bhe karney ko taiyar hai.

Terrorism is really about people who are brainwashed, has nothing to do with poverty and illiteracy. We dont find poor illiterate people becoming terrorists necessarily, do we? On the contrary, most of the activities have been funded by the well-to-do.

Yes it is true that many of these are brain washed and misled. Even educated people can fall victims and are made to think that they are doing the right thing. Some crooked religious leaders are known to have tons of wives until they are finally caught. They have the power of persuasion.
Even certain unauthodox sects in China are know to have killed their own family members thinking they are sending them to Heaven.
