GUEST,Max Weber | BS: Economic Roots of Terrorism (30) | RE: BS: Economic Roots of Terrorism | 11 Oct 01 |
It is curious to note, as people have already pointed out elsewhere, that many of those active in terrorism are the beneficiaries of capitalistic developments. That's where Bin Laden's fund came from. Also, a lot of the people involved in the recent attacks came from middle-class families. Poverty may breed discontent, but it is often the well-off ideological radicals who lead the charge. |
