Discursive Essay The Root Cause of Terrorism Poverty and ignorance; disease and environmental disorder; corruption and political oppression, all of which lead to terrorism. Or is it a matter of power - who has it and how to get it - not of poverty. What is the “Root Cause of Terrorism”? That is what I have decided to write my discursive essay about. What could possibly motivate these acts? What is there to be gained? And that drive and motivation still exists in the world today. But where is this faceless enemy? How do we stop it if we don’t even know what it is? There are so many questions thrown about among the critics and the leaders of the world today, that one can’t easily explain. But as much as possible as a fifteen year old, I try to put the facts and beliefs together to find at least an understanding of it in this short assessment of the issues put forward. The desire to identify "root causes" and so be able to correct them is natural. Root causes "have" to be there. A man doesn’t wake up one day and decide that he is going to go and kill innocent civilians. There must be an explanation for the unexplainable: Why a teenaged Palestinian girl would blow herself up in an attempt to kill as many Jews as possible, or privileged young men of the Arab world plot to kill themselves while murdering thousands of American civilians.
