Thought you might be interested in reading this thoughtful piece by E. Said.
http://www.ahram.org.eg/weekly/2001/557/op2.htm
Question though: do any of you know of any studies or writings that
explicitly link poverty AND oppression to 'terrorism', religious
fundamentalism, suicide-bombing, violent self-defense, etc.?
I ask because it is my belief that poverty is intricatly linked, though I
would like to 'empirically' verify that...
Thanks,
 Omar
