You were the one promoting the simplistic theory that
if we just leave, their motivation would cease.

Personally, I think their motivation is driven by a desire to burden the WEST (USA prime player) to the point of collapse, so that it enhances their own status in relative terms. As it is now, the West has far more influence and
prominence and I think they view modernization and western
social evolution as a threat to their way of life.
