Why do terrorist think by killing innocent will help them?

Question

Do their God not tell them not to murder? if not then their god must be the devil, By killing innocent will not help them achieve their goals, therefore the terrorist are either delusional or not able to reach their true enemy or have a lack of intelligence to talk about their issues and resolve their issues peacefully.

Answer 1

terrorist think that what they do is for their god. they think their religion tells them to do it. it is stupid

Answer 2

It's worked for the West - to kill the innocent, so why not the terrorists?

Does the West realize how many innocent Muslims in many, many Arab lands have been killed over objectives and motives on the part of the West? To name a few: Iraq, the Palestinian refugee camps of the past 60 years, Lebanon, Iran, Kuwait, etc.

This war between the West and terrorists is really an imperial war, because the terrorists wants the West, particularly the U.S., out of its Muslim business.

I don't like the methods, but I can't say I blame them for their hatred of U.S. policies. Millions of innocent Muslims have been killed when they got in the way of Western ambitions.

If the West thinks Muslims have been the only ones to kill in the name of religion, it doesn't know its history. Think of the Crusades, the Spanish Inquisition and the Salem Witch Trials for three examples. History is littered with the bodies of people killed in the name of religious beliefs.

Answer 3

It's the exact same situation as the Crusades. The people have been lied to, many haven't even read the Quran and take whatever the psychos like Bin Laden and Zarqawi say at face value. They have been told that these acts of horrific violence are their sure ticket to Heaven, when in fact, the Islamic religion is one of peace. Education and literacy really are the key to solving the world's problems...

Answer 4

This is a common misconception among westeners. Muslim
terrorists feel justified because there are no innocent infidels.
They believe that all non muslims should be killed because they
are not muslim. Until the United States starts realizing that they are fighting against religious beliefs "jihad" holy war, there will
continue to be innocents killed. You MUST fight terrorists with the same tactics they employ against you. You did'nt see Sadam Hussein having these kind of problems with muslim extremests
because he knew how to handle them. Fight terror w/terror.

Answer 5

I think they lack the intelligence to talk about their issues and resolve them peacefully

Answer 6

Dominance

Answer 7

I think it's horrible how they always mention that their actions are supported by God. It's very sad. I've also hear that they do it so that they can reach "a land full of honey streaming with virgins". They're very ignorant.

Answer 8

It is called the fear factor. Killing the innocent in Lebanon has the people thinking that they are heros.

Answer 9

Fear. Nothing but fear. Coldblooded atrocities are meant to strike fear into the hearts of the "infidels" and force them to embrace Islam.

It would be the same as if the Democrats said, "Vote for us or we will kill you."

Answer 10

The only thing they know is to kill . They are raised on violence and hide behind religion to sanctify their thirst for blood .

Answer 11

those nuts have been brainwashed. they just can't think anymore except to blindly follow whatever instructions that have been given by their leader who usually happens to be an exceptionally charismatic person.
