re: #286 Obdicut

I’m sorry, if you’re not going to define your terms, there’s little that can be achieved.

A lot of ‘jihadis’, by my definition— men and women who are convinced they are fighting a righteous holy war, usually by violent means— come from non-radical, middle-class backgrounds where they did not receive a strong indoctrination, or at least, less strong than many of their peers.

It is important to note just how many terrorists, jihadis, and what have no you are not the disaffected, easily-manipulated, but are intelligent, driven individuals from stable backgrounds.

Being disaffected, easily manipulated have nothing to do with indoctrination. Everyone, regardless of economic or educational background.

Indoctrination is a process exclusive of those things you mention. It is also a necessary method used by tyrants to keep populations subdued.
