The London-Based Azzaman Newspaper said Monday in its editorial that terrorism, extremism and close-mindedness are unrelated to only one place or one environment.
In its editorial titled "The young and terrorism," it said not all terrorists are poor, nor all poor are terrorists, nor all terrorists Middle Eastern, Arab or Islamic.
"The world, during the 1970s, witnessed emerging world terrorism that terrified Europe ... such as the German Bader Meinhoff organization, the Italian Red Brigade, the Irish Republican Army and the Spanish ETA organization," it said.
It said European terrorists began at the same time as groups such as the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt.
"By the time the European terrorism stopped, the Islamic terrorism became wild in the name of Islam, shedding the blood of thousand of people in Egypt, Yemen, Algiers, Morocco Saudi Arabia, the Gulf, and then it crossed the oceans to many countries making terrorism impossible to get rid of," the editorial said.
