The secret is always the same. Relative stability and chances at a desirable future for the youngsters. If whole generations grow up without any realistic chance for a life and a livelihood, the outcome is as expected. If you got nothing to lose, you're more likely to put your own life on the line.
You make an astounding leap over the fact that the muslim religion invites and cultivates the environment for no realistic chance for a peaceful and happy life for everyone. Simply having little, being poor, is not the single metric by which violence occurs not by a long shot and is very shortsighted, dangerous even to mitigate your ideals with such loose and foolhardy comments. Its what muslims are taught and the forced means by which those teachings are enforced that cause such utter violence on a global scale. And just with older religions that walked the globe so long ago handing out violence on scale with islam, they were all beaten into submission and today are mostly benign and operate in courtrooms rather than the streets forcing those into subjugation. Islam will be beaten into submission, eventually, I just wish we could be here to see it with our own eyes.
