Identifying the problem

South China Morning Post:

Recruits to Islamic State (IS) are better educated than their average countryman, contrary to popular belief, according to a new World Bank study.

Moreover, those offering to become suicide bombers ranked on average in the more educated group, said the newly released study titled “Economic and Social Inclusion to Prevent Violent Extremism”.

This "poverty is the root cause" theory is very popular in Canada. Genuinely poor people are illiterate and they're too busy not starving to death. They don't have time or resources to plan and then execute their terror.

Just take a look at Osama bin Laden. The guy was born to a multi-billionaire father. Poverty isn't the problem. Islam is.
