They have been wealthy and poor, free and oppressed, religious and non-religious. This At Issue explores the influence of religion, economics, politics, and technology on people who become willing to give their lives for terror.
This small book contains twelve essays by people with diverse political views analyze the thinking of terrorists who commit suicide to attack their enemies. The authors examine the role of the Islamic religion, politics, nationalism, anti-Semitism, and other social causes. There is a discussion of how children and woman are recruited for war. This would make a good addition to any High School library.
