Abstract:
Since many years ago, all around the world terrorism has been used as a tool in the hands of terrorist groups to achieve their goals. In late 20th century, with expansion and linkage of terrorist networks from around the globe, terrorism presented itself as an international phenomenon. In this era, active terrorist groups are proven to be more from Islamic world due to various reasons, which caused this phenomenon to be considered by some commentators, to be arising from domestic changes happening in Islamic countries, specifically Middle East. Due to the fact that many terrorism activities in recent decades has been carried out by the groups claiming to be Islamic, such as Al Qaeda, ISIS, Al nusra, Boko haram and Al shabaab, these groups consciously or unconsciously have been trying to come up with reasons to tie terrorism and Islam principles.
What are the causes of terrorism spread among Islamic world indeed? Do terrorist groups commit terrorism acts because of "group-oriented" (religious or ethnic) impetuses? Do "Ideological" motives (right and wrong) lie behind terrorism acts? Are reasons such as "weak governments", "transition period", "globalization", "renovation" and "collide of civilizations and cultures" causing terrorism in such dimensions? Or are terrorist groups formed towards utilitarian aspirations of the world's or the district's imperialism and are used as a tool to those ends?
According to the Author's point of view, there are various reasons to formation of terrorism in above mentioned geographical realms.
But America's utilitarian and exploitive aspirations, as the world's hegemonic power and it's allies in regions, are playing the main part in formation and endurance of terrorist groups.
The current research is done in descriptive-analysis methodology and is done through library based studies.
