    Terrorists in all cultures are people who are filled with a rage that is deep and is fed by a belief system for (and therefore also against) certain actions, principles or people.  Sometimes it derives from society, sometimes from religion, and sometimes in their own character and experience of life, having often been at the receiving end of hate or violence themselves.  Often terrorists are individuals who have been indoctrinated in the principles of hatred and fear through these channels.  Sometime in their lives, they have aligned with a cause that they perceive  will best shleter and gives them a sense of purpose and belonging, preserves their own well being, a deeply held belief, and/or the well being of those whom they care for.  In the US, for example, gangs are a brand of terrorist to society.  Individuals find affiliation with and then bond through violence toward those who they perceive threaten their well being, their cause, or have caused their pain or contribute to their misery.  These groups also provide a sense of belonging since they are united in common cause against a common enemy.  

    Whatever the actions of the current US administration, terrorists have existed nearly as long as humans have been in existence.  The methods and targets may change, but the rage and hatred is the constant. As far as foreign terrorists today and the USA, the principle is the same.  Actions of the USA have been perceived by groups to be threatening, non-supportive and/or counter to the goals and beliefs of groups who are passionate about a cause around which they unite, and groups consist of those prone to violent and extremist ways of trying to fight for that cause at any cost.  The rage and hate is the blinding common and controlling factor of their actions, whether the target is USA or another country or entity.
