THE bombing of the Marriott Hotel in Jakarta highlights the elusive nature of terrorism and its perpetrators.
Terror attacks will continue as long as inequality and injustice remain a major issue in the world.
Deposing a dictator like Saddam Hussein will never curb terrorism, as much as President George W. Bush would like us to believe.
At the same time, while religion may be used as an excuse for violence, it is not the cause. This has been evidenced through the condemnations of the Jakarta bombing by both Christian and Muslim leaders in Indonesia.
The factors for terrorism are often more complex and tied to universal injustices between the East and West.
