Sri Lanka suicide bombers were all mbirioneas. PhD holders from foreign Unis, lawyers, a copper factory owner. All were from affluent families.
It is said that they did it in retaliation to Christchurch NZ. Yaani they turned suicide bombers in less than a month!
Luckily they did not choose to do it in a European country. If they did, skin heads would oust all muslims from Europe kesho asubuhi
Meanwhile Christchurch attacker has been executed
terrorism is becoming more and more fluid.
Its now becoming very difficult for law enforcement to to weed out terrorists, it only takes a day or a week to fully radicalise a person.
I fear for our country Kenya, our corrupt elites have stole everything meant for youth empowerment and jobs, leaving a pool of highly educated, depressed , frustrated young people. This is the group foreign terror groups or sleeper cells within the country will take advantage of.
Just imagine giving youths with nothing to lose 10Million shillings or 50Million shillings to blow themselves up. i’m afraid 70% of our youths may take the offer.

Very good point, amongst reasons that push people to terrorism, are the ones you’ve mentioned . People always think it’s only a religious this but they tend to forget oppression is the real factor .
As for the Sri Lankan guys, that’s just non sense, maybe they lost some family in Nz but still doesn’t make sense , the connection and all.
During the height of ISIS back in 2014 the murdered cleric and terrorist recruiter Ahmad Iman Ali was rumoured to have been paying young men in Majengo area Kshs 1,000 every day after they attended prayers. At that time he was in Somali but had businesses and agents in Gikombaa area and also he must have had funding from elsewhere.

If someone gives you Kshs 1,000 a day for 2 to 3 months while everybody else in the community has abandoned you, that person is God to you. After that person has made you trust him he will easily convince you as to what must be done to get rid of Satan and the suffering he brings.
Terrorism has entered a new phase. Shift to far flung and widespread areas without a physical pattern. Ladies and gentlemen buckle up for the oncoming turbulence
