You are right, poverty does not translate to terrorism. You and
I can both find many examples to that effect.
But truth of the matter is, in the course of our discussion, there
are many people who try to justify it with poverty.
"Oh they are so poor, its understandable that they feel
shortchanged by the caucasians..."
"They have had hard lives, its ok for them to take to arms to kill
american civillians, after all, the americans did this to
them..."
"They have been oppressed, of course we should not condemn them
when the decide to blow up buildings filled with american
civillians..."
I'm not saying that the americans are angels. They have their fair
share of ill intentions and wrong doings. But killing civillians by
the hundreds, whether by americans, germans, israelis or arabs is
just wrong and cannot be condoned, oppressed or otherwise.
