Is Terrorism Fuelled By "Poverty" by Vikkie14: 4:17am On Mar 04, 2015
The problem is not poverty but spiritual recrudescence(renewal). What we are fighting here is Ideology and not government bad policy.

If US still maintain that "poverty and government incentives" fuel terrorism, then i would like to say that US government policies are responsible for global terrorism afterall, their greed for Iraqi oil fuel the first terror network organized by the late Osama Bin Laden. Their invasion in 2003 rendered Iraq defensely thereby creating a gap for terrorism to thrive. That gap is what ISIL capitalized on now which the world is fighting to curtail now.

See Libya, a country thrown into chaos since US interfere in their nation. Since Gaddafi death, that country had remained a "SAFE haven" for terrorist. The same weapons taken from Libyan's arsenal are spilled over into BH hand's thereby creating another terrorism network here in Nigeria. We've been trying to curtail BH for years now. Cameroon's Army have spoken to CNN that "the more BokoHaram they killed, the more they recruit".
See Mali, same weapons from Libya chaos orchestrated by US simply because they cant stand Ghaddafi regime. US GREEDINESS, "POWER GRABBING" AND IMMORAL POLICIES ARE THE BASIC THRIVING GROUND FOR TERRORISM.
Now, US is in stand-off with Israel over Iran Nuclear Ambition. Nigeria have reduced her ties with US severely over their "friendly foe" stunts. Russia is in a combat position for any aggression by US over her role in Ukraine crisis. Venezuela had told US to reduced the number of its staff without delay. America has an explanation to make on the surge of insurgency world wide.
Obama Administration is a TOTAL disaster.
