Looking for the roots of terrorism

[Kirkland Laing]

Here's a root cause of terrorism, the collapse of The Ottoman Empire

If the Ottoman Empire still ruled the Middle East they'd be the ones being bombed by the radical nutters.

Well that was a Sunni Islamic state so maybe yes, maybe no it depends on if the nutters respected the leader of that Empire.

If you read a bit about the history of the Ottoman empire you'll see they faced insurgencies in almost all the areas they occupied, particularly among the tribes in Mesopotamia (now Iraq and Sunni-region Syria) and what is now Saudi Arabia and Yemen.

I've read about the Middle East as far back as their ancient civilizations they have always ALWAYS fought. The Ottomans would have troubles with the Shia I am sure as well.
