"Terrorism is an international problem and not just a middle eastern problem or muslim problem. The reason it is such a problem in the muslim world is because of the fragmentation and tribal structures which prevents modern military constructs from being utilized. Their only alternative is to turn to the terrorist and guerilla methodology of war. This is the only way the poor can fight back, whether we like it or not"

And this is just asinine. Nepal has just about succeeded in bringing democracy to that country through demonstrations. While not always peacful, they did it. To suggest that terrorism is a legitimate, or one's ONLY recourse that the poor can fight with is the ultimate in moral-equivelancy and is pathetic.

There is NEVER a need to purposefully target civilians to further one's cause.
