Yeah, this about explains a good bit of how pretty much any extremist movement gets its cannon fodder. Frustration and alienation combined with unsafe conditions, unhealthy conditions, and a crap-ton of ignorance. That even makes people in these conditions in the States get lured toward organizations full of empty promises, emotional appeals, and crud like that. To be entirely honest, I think this is part of why religion is so popular. But the cannon fodder is not the leadership. How does the leadership emerge?In many parts of the country, the government is unable to provide security, good roads, water, health, reliable power and education. The situation is particularly dire in the far north. Frustration and alienation drive many to join “self-help” ethnic, religious, community or civic groups, some of which are hostile to the state.
