That depends as the Palestinian Crisis has shown us, Religion isn't the only reason for terrorism, it can also be the target of poverty. But Organized Radical Religion can play a major part, it just determines on the back ground of these people. If their family was promised money if they were to kill themselves, then it wasn't Religion.

Bigger is Relative, the world does not revolve around life in the US. To Dark and those on the other side of the world, this may seem like this year's big event of controversy.
