Really, so if you could convince the entire planet that Religion is a fairytale (I know it's impossible, think of it as a thought exercise), what do you think would be driving these major terrorist attacks?

I'm sorry but blind faith in fairytales is the root of this problem because the terrorists genuinely believe they're doing gods work and that this is for the greater good. Remove that and make people realize that there is no after life, no reason to risk their lives and then we'll see how many people are willing to risk their one shot at life for whatever bs cause you come up with now.

Convince people there is no God and you will solve this problem.
