They have their minds, do they not? A mind is a powerful weapon.

What happened to Love? To kindness? To the brain and to muscle and bone? Homeless people aren't deprived of sense either.

Although they may have the power of majority, terror is the only advantage that, to them is guaranteed to work. Government officials get bribed away from promises, petitions are thrown away and protests ignored, but a crude home made bomb that kills a major official with the threat of another unless their demands are met is not that likely to be ignored.

A nice rotten fart in a crowded room is a great, inexpensive weapon.

of course they have several methods available to them, but sometimes they see terror as the only option

TallyL, only women could ever consider love and kindness to be weapons, to be used and withdrawn at will.

Terror comes in many shades and varieties. They can throw liquor bottles and losing lottery tickets at the people they hate.

I think that's kinda insulting. A lot of people who were at one point 'poor' are now close to the top of the world. No terror needed.

you should really rephrase the question. However, in general, it is not the poor & weak who commit to terrorism. Do some research, read some books, talk to some intelligent & informed people, then post a better question.

I wouldn't consider Osame bin Laden poor. Or Saddam.

"you should really rephrase the question." To what? The question is fine as it is. Either answer it, or click the link that says "skip".

The only weapon in the sense of physical force, etc. But I am a firm believer in the power of non-violent action, so I definitely do not think it is their only way of effecting change.
