What Motivates Terrorists and Assassins?

A group of people whose brutal, ruthless hearts full of sentiments over brimming with feelings of rage, revenge, rebel and the nostalgic grief who shade this land devoid of peace and order are known as terrorists and assassins. Instances and occasions in their lives have converted the soft human child into a blunt, harsh man who is ignorant to opt for other ways in life to succeed or reciprocate the past pain and sorrow of loss and darker past of their lives.
We as calm and peaceful citizens commit even more significant blunders which go unnoticed and unmarked, but when we listen to updates and see that 5 people are dead in a terrorist attack we start criticising either the defence or government, rather we shall hold the country more responsible for such acts and deeds. Are we ever truly worried about the attacks or blasts that occur or perhaps it is just the sympathy and consideration we often try to exhibit and never try forwarding a step to eradicate this disturbing ailment. Intelligence agencies and defence operations continuously run silent surveillance missions to handcuff the suspects who cleaned their hands and claimed innocent lives way back, 30 years ago.
I reckon it is the rage and revenge supported by money and glamour which wins their hearts over their gullible minds and when the mind gets censored they act blindly, unthinkingly. If a terrorist is to wipe off the inhabitants of a piece of land he would not give it a thought even if his own residence is to be fired, and this is the repercussion of a blind mind. This club of people have innumerable members to join in willing to wishfully surrender their lives but with a false aim which differentiates it from a suicide.
