Many legitimate causes have gone from being non-violent, legal processes, to violent acts of terrorism. The only essential ingredient is a leader who is well trained, dedicated and charismatic to change the situation completely. Many patriotic people with good intentions have been seduced by popular movements that soon have turned out to be the opposite thing of which in fact they wished. The later era to World War II produced a great number of radical causes, political wars of liberation, and alliances, that as well created a romantic attraction towards the revolutionary delinquents, treating them like champions of the popular causes. Along with the romantics, the movements also attracted
a great number of professional, avenging radicals, criminals and also subversive agents.
The student revolts of the 60's and 70's, produced a great number of radicals and idealists, some of which remained in dissident movements and changed from one movement to another. Others, who felt sympathy towards their movement were integrated into normal life, in their respective societies, where they worked until reaching superior positions of responsibility, or levels within the same government.
Some of these people, in the present, form the base for the peripheral support of these terrorist organizations.
