The terrorists in the sleeper cells and so on are a different breed. Highly intelligent so they can aquire the skills to enable them to blend into other foreign societies.

It just seems such a waste. To spend all that time to become doctors, and the world needs more doctors, only to throw away all the potential healing and good that could have been done.
I'm sure we've all met people who have university degrees dripping off their arms and yet appear to be the stupidest knobs in the world.

Every society has them, including our own.
