root causes? good question... I'll start a list off the top of my head and maybe some others can add to it.

1)The desire by the leaders of terrorism to establish a new order under which they will rule the world.
2)Lack of resources or support for said rulers to accomplish that mission via peaceful, economic, diplomatic, or social change.
3)The desire of said rulers to adhere to corrupt and fundamentally extreme doctrine.
4)Tribal, ethnic, and ideological differences.
5)Vendettas
6)Mercenary funding
7)Ignorance, fear, and lack of faith.
8)Living with materialistic frustration and hardship while others in the world have plenty.
9)Frustration with social injustice
10)Extreme patriotism and loyalties to sub-culture
11)Take-it-to-da-man
