Causes of terrorism by 'the Arabs' against 'the West'

The research paper explores the roots of Arab terrorism against the West, linking it to the colonial history of the Middle East in the 20th century. It argues that while religion, particularly Islam, is often manipulated for political ends, economic factors also play a significant role. The paper posits that terrorism serves dual purposes: as a means to achieve political objectives for some, and as a lucrative enterprise for others, highlighting the complex interplay between ideology and economics in the context of transnational terrorism.
