Terrorist groups in North America have tended to be sporadic in their rate of formation and in their activities. The first middle Eastern terrorist groups excluding Irgun and Hagana actions prior to the creation of Israel were founded in the 1960s and 1970s. Moreover the causes espoused by terrorists have changed. The social revolutionaries secular nationalists and radical right of an earlier day have been largely replaced by terrorists promoting religiously inspired agendas or to be more precise Militant Islamic ones that exist often without direct state support. Indeed one of the most shocking aspects of the attack of September in was that this fury of killing was meant to please a deity. This raises an obvious question what sort of deity would in the minds of the terrorists be pleased by the attacks of September 2001.
