not only brainwash but they reinforce the twisted ideas, values, mindset
in short, they corrupted the people they recruited

and i bet they kinda threaten them.say that their family commited many "sins", say this is the way to clear their 'sins'
i do not know what they said, but they are way more persuasive then the statement above
i suppose the statement above is used by those missionaries? Laughable
If it is me, i will reply to the missionary: " Come! Join in our glory!"
thing about terrorism is it that it started from home.
parents brainwashed and poor.
got help from "religious leader"
food, prayer and hope is what they want..a better life
the parents are not brainwashed (mostly)
it is just that they dun have the means to provide education for their kids and these twisted mullahs take advantage of this situation for their own ends
pity the children.
encouraged to be violent

You will be surprised to learn those well educated, rich people are also terrorists themselves

no wonder he can live in manshion before he die
They want to create chaos. Bomb here bomb there, bing bong piang..
in fact, all these acts of terrorism were confined to the Middle East and generally not heard of until after the 1st Gulf War
seems like the terrorists were desperate for resources to fight for whatever they wanted

It was due to the collapse of the USSR. Some Islamists believed that the Afghan muslims fighters brought down the USSR and this raised the morale of the Islamist political cause.
More radical and extreme Islamists turned to terrorist tactics to further their cause.
the Islamist brought down the USSR?
Hahahahaha
No lah, the Cold War between USA and her allies accelerated and caused the demise of the USSR
Terrorism CANNOT bring down an entire nation, unless its a nuke. A nuke in a small country.

It is the communist way of world domination.
Communism failed, now the JI try their turn.
I'm actually starting to believe that some of these "terrorist" are actually government created to push an agenda. Trying to make "terrorist" into a household name so people would believe to a certain government's words coz everyone don't want to be a terrorist victim.
Look up USS Liberty and USS Cole how a certain country try to incite war between 2 other countries... Only difference is these 2 events are military targets at sea where it didn't receive much public attention. However, 911 was a public target and 1 year later, there was a war with Iraq trying to find Osama.
8 years later when they "found" Osama, they immediately disposed the body at sea "in accordance to Islamic traditions". Since when burial at sea is an Islamic tradition?
I think JI's purpose is to spread fear into Asia so they could get Asian support, but once they got Australian support, the JI idea was scrapped and the hired terrorist are just left without a purpose. Now JI is maintained by hiring the poor and uneducated and funded through kidnappings but still have no purpose...
Osama was CIA agent.
it is a very cruel and complicated world we live in
when you really think of it, there are lots of vested interests
Terrorists come and go. Baader-Hofmen, Japanese Red Army, CT (Communist Terrorists)
The present incumbent are the Islamist, which is what the topic is about.
"Some of the terrorist are actually government created to push an agenda."
Some, which some? The shoe bomber, the underwear bomber, trying to bring down a plane load of travellers. These are government created to cause chaos to world travel. To create jobs, perhaps.
Osama was given a burial "in accordance with Islamic tradition for sea burial". Muslims were also seafarers, remember, so they have such traditions.. Please get your perspective right.
JI got Australian support? That is new to me, considering that the majority of tourist killed in the Bali bombing by the JI were Australians.
Mas Selamat who has plans to crash a plane into Changi Airport was government created. Which government, Singapore, Indonesia, or Malaysia?
and no, Osama is Not a CIA agent
he comes from a rich family

it can be any of these countries.
but waking to the fact that terrorist is created by goverment can get pretty disturbing
The government is a favourite target for blame.

so whats the purpose behind all these
Not directly or deliberately created
these militias or groups filled up the power vacuum left behind by a supposedly ruler and ended up becoming a threat to the nation that supported it because these militias or groups had their own agendas to fulfill
Huh? be clearer?
what i mean is, the govt did not directly created a terrorist group
they evolved to fill in the power vacuum left behind by a major power (Eg, the Soviet Union) and, with their own agenda, turned their backs on the nation that supported them
