Terrorists bomb us
I ever seek reasons why
the good turn out worse

My dissertation is examining the causes of Islamist terrorism, which looks at conflicts within the Middle East, the demise of the Ottoman Empire and the subsequent rise in political Islam, and how the US, its foreign policy and actions in the Middle East have been a stated motivation in terrorist events (most notably by bin Laden).  I’m also examining the ‘war on terror’ and its repercussions.
