Though I agree with your assertion, The west are just using and exploiting islamic fundamentalists because the ingredients are already there.
You can't create Buddhist terrorist because he is not easily swayed to get involved in terrorist activity, the same with christianity but with Muslims, it is much easier.
For the record, I am not only the one who say this facts, Egyptian tv personality and news anchors say this all the time.
It depends on what one calls "the ingredients".
However, in Muslim majority countries, these organisations, whether we call them terrorists, Islamic terrorists, Islamists, Islamic Jihadists, Muslim fanatics, or Islamic fundamentalists, are brought forth by weakened or collapse of state institutions, including parliament, army, justice, security, bureaucracy , which are pivotal in the governance structure of a country. This weakened role of the state institutions is in turn due, in most cases, to state failure or state collapse, where a state becomes unable to project authority over its territory and people, and protect its national boundaries, leading the state to fail to fulfill the administrative and organizational tasks required to control people and resources and provide public services.
Following this, the government of such a state loses legitimacy, as its citizens would no longer believe that their government is legitimate, and thus the state/government becomes illegitimate internationally. and this leads to the creation of a power void or power vacuum in the country, which in turn leads to anarchy to start to reign the country, and this provides such organisations with the ideal platform to make themselves visible, fill the vacuum, restore security and justice based on their books, gain public confidence, and gradually take over the country if possible.
Somalia, Libya, Iraq, Syria are perfect examples of such a scenario.
Who's the main culprit who plots and contributes to such a state collapse, in the first place? The WEST.
it's also worth reminding that these organisations are not religious organisations per se. They're after all political organisations that are using Islam as a means to achieve their political ambitions. Some of them do not wait for the state of their country of target to collapse to show up. The Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt is the epitome of this category.
In addition, the West scribbles here and there "the religious sources of Islamic terrorism".
Terrorism has no place in Islam. Neither are there any sources in Islam for terrorism whatsoever.
The West wants to wash its hands of any involvement in these organisations and play the victim instead, when in reality it's the very one that creates these dreaded organisations.
