I agree with you that poverty, discrimination and oppression should be tackled and that we should of course look at the root causes of terrorism. I would argue the same principal in relation to crime, instead of just banging people up and calling it a solution, we should be tackling the social issues that cause people to commit the crime in the first place. However, while we are looking at these social causes to crime and the roots of terrorism we still need to deal with the ever present problem of someone battering a pensioner for their pension money and a terrorist strapping bombs to his chest! That is all I am trying to say and apologies if I seemed presumptuous.
