exactly. poverty, lack of opportunity also caused the Arab SpringWhile I think those conditions certainly make it easier for them to recruit, that is not the root cause of terrorism. The root cause is the radical ideology that a very small portion of 'Islamic' people follow. The ideology that states that all those that do not follow said ideology are the enemy and must be destroyed or brought to compliance.
These factor contribute to recruiting, but the terrorist mindset is religion driven .
