So if it isn't desperation, what is it?

Hope. Hope fuels terror. Is it the hope that the threat of beheadings can change policy for a whole country (and amazingly turned that country's foreign policy over to unelected religious leaders, according to Bertrand Badie of l'Institut d'études politiques in Paris who complains that French Muslims became “a sort of substitute for the French foreign ministry.”) ? Is it the hope of creating a utopian Greater Islamic World (Atta's hope)? Is it the hope of riding the backs of those who carry Atta's utopia as their goal to maintain power and as a bonus rid themselves of pesky Jews once and for all (Arafat, who make no mistake, is all about maintaining power and killing Jews, not peace.)

Dispensing with the "root cause, desperation"

We need to dispense with the notion that "desperation" is the cause of these attacks.
"Contrary to popular belief, the motivating force behind terror is neither desperation nor destitution. It is hope - the hope of terrorists systematically brainwashed by the ideologues who manipulate them that their savagery will break the will of their enemies and help them achieve their objectives - political, religious, or otherwise.
Defeat this hope and you defeat terrorism. Convince terrorists, their sponsors, and potential new recruits that terrorism will be thoroughly uprooted and severely punished and you will stop it cold in its tracks." -- Benyamin Netanyahu, speech before the US SENATE, Washington, 10 April 2002
The world must understand that the terrorists have not chosen suicide bombing out of "desperation" stemming from the Israel/America/Russia/The West. That is a huge lie. Why? To begin with, a lot of other people in the world are desperate, yet they have not gone around strapping dynamite to themselves.
People so desperate that they allow their children to go malnourished, yet form sophisticated networks and bomb production centers, and gain large stockpiles of firearms and rockets, like the Qassam for example, are not acting from desperation. If they were desperate, they would feed their children rather than send them to their deaths as human bombs.
There is a reason to using their children as bombs and terrorists, and it isn't because they're deperate: It is because they are impressionable and have no memory of recent history. Example: Kuwait madrasses and teach hate against The West, and ease terror supporters' recruiting youths to be 'insurgent' terrorists in Iraq. After all, they don't remember that the US they go to fight is the same US that liberated Kuwait from Hussein in 1991.

We hear a lot about the moderate Muslim who doesn't agree with the actions of folks committing beheadings.
We also hear a lot of agitating that this moderate does not exist, or that everything is the fault of The West and Zionists, depending on who the speaker is.
I would like to take this opportunity to introduce to you the moderate Muslim.
Zainab Al-Suwaij spoke at the Republican National Convention in New York.

Who is Zainab Al-Suwaij? She is one of the founders of the American Islamic Congress, http://aicongress.org. READ ON!

EU funding terror in a proxy war against the US?

Ilke Schroeder doesn't mince words. The 25 year old German EU Parliament member said the following words on December 22nd, 2003:
"The Europeans," explained MP Schroeder, "supported the Palestinian Authority with the aim of becoming its main sponsor, and through this, challenge the U.S. and present themselves as the future global power. Therefore, the Al-Aksa Intifada should be understood as a proxy war between Europe and the United States."
But wait- there's more!
"It is an open secret within the European Parliament that EU aid to the Palestinian Authority has not been spent correctly," MP Schroeder said during a recent address in New York. "The European Parliament does not intend to verify whether European taxpayers' money could have been used to finance anti-Semitic murderous attacks. Unfortunately, this fits well with European policy in this area."
So many Europeans protested being called anti-Semites by Sharon after their holding back on the EU anti-Semitism report, but it too verifies that the EU, both parliament and people, are stricken with an anti-Semitism problem.
