MY COMMENTS*****************************************************************
I almost laughed at this video, "The Intricate Economics of Terrorism. When the speaker stated that the group of terrorist had run out of money it seemed like a parody of sorts. Of course, speaker Loretta Napoleoni does not really mean to give a speech about how broke terrorists are funny, but does show an interesting point as she explains how terrorism is a business that does require large capital to exist. I apply this to Political Science and Sociology as the disciplines this connects to.
In many newspapers I have seen governments supporting terrorists to achieve their own ends. The fight will definitely have a winner or loser, and if it is oil, land, or power, people, governments, or whoever, they want to be on the winning side. Many things in the issue depend on what they fight for, and how much they have to fight with.
