Why are there so many terrorists that are Muslim?
<|assistant|>
The answer to this question is difficult to ascertain with certainty, as there are a variety of political, economic and cultural factors that are at play when examining this question. Muslim populations, globally, often suffer from high levels of poverty, unemployment and lack of education which creates fertile grounds for radicalization and extremism. Many Muslim countries have been targets of military interventions and economic sanctions from Western countries, which have created deep-seated feelings of distrust and resentment. Some Muslims are also angered by what they perceive to be religious and cultural persecution by non-Muslims.
