Economics in terrorism

Money trumps religion.

Money fuels terrorism in South Asia, says Dhaka daily : Asia World
Dhaka, Sep 17 – ‘Huge sums of money’ are being used to push youth in South Asia towards religious fundamentalism and terrorism, a Dhaka daily has said while calling for neutralising the source of terror funding.

‘Religious fundamentalist groups which are carrying on their missions in some of the countries, including Bangladesh, are known to have motivated a large number of young men through spending huge sums of money,’ The Daily Star said in an editorial Monday.

It welcomed the initiative by the South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC) nations whose officials will meet in New Delhi this month to deliberate on the necessity of getting to the roots of funding of terrorist organisations that operate in the region.
