Terrorism, as we know it today, is rooted in frustration, anger, fear, and feelings of helplessness. It is easy to convince a group of very angry, fearful people that violence will get them power, especially since terrorism can pay off in the short term. It rarely, if ever, brings about a positive change. It usually ends with the terrorists dead or so damaged that they will never have a life they strived for and many more people dead and damaged. Needed changes can't be brought about by terrorism.

A good description of a terrorist mentality was described byTamim Ansary, in his book "West of Kabul, East of New York", as being shut in a box lined with mirrors and any ideas that might slip in are reflected off those mirrors.
