That is the danger of the limited understanding that comes from indoctrination.
The question is not confined to formal schooling, but includes moral education, and real-world experience.....and an understanding of human nature.
Without these, actions are often misguided at best, and destructive at worst.
The following, a case in point:
1. "What would induce the citizens of a prosperous and peaceful country to leave for an increasingly impoverished and violent living hell?
2. .... the number of French citizens going to Syria to participate in jihad has increased recently, and it fears what they might do when they return home. So far, 18 French jihadis have been killed in Syria, 70 have returned, and 220 (four times as any as in May 2013) are thought to be on the ground there. Another 200 to 300 might be preparing to go.
3. .... 80 percent are of North African descent, usually young men who ignored the precepts of their ancestral religion and indulged in debauchery until they were born again into a life of puritanical fanaticism. The other 20 percent are French converts.
4. .... the mother of one such convert, Nicolas Bons, alias Abu Abdel Rahman, 30, who died in a suicide bombing in Syria..... According to Madame Bons, prior to his conversion Nicolas had said that he didnt want to live in a society based on profit and consumption. He couldnt stand injustice. For him, everyone was exploited. He didnt want to be exploited. It was for this reason that he didnt want to work.
5. .... believed that, under the current system, they would never receive the full value of their labor. It never occurred to them that, since they continued to consumehowever much they might disapprove of the consumption of othersthey must be exploiting someone, whether taxpayers or their parents.

6. Where else have we seen similar cognitive inability?
Leftist political/economic philosophy, the idea that just the right laws or government will lead to 'fairness,' or 'economic equality' or 'social justice,'
Now, proponents may not blow themselves up, but are about destroying society:
"Brian Phillips is the head of communications for the NYC General Assembly, the group primarily responsible for occupying Wall Street. I learned about him while listening to National Public Radios Morning Edition. According to NPR, Phillips is an ex-Marine with a bachelors in computer science. Today he is wearing a sock on his head.
My political goal, Phillips says, is to overthrow the government.

7. The unspoken and unrecognized assumption is that there exists some mechanism that can distribute goods and services. The only such mechanism is, and must be, the totalitarian state, also known as sharia.
a. To believe this, one must accept that there exists some equation by which the state can fairly and honestly control human exchange. Here we go: increasing taxes to increase programs to increase happiness to allow equality all of which ends up in dictatorship.
b. There is the adolescent standing aside the street sweeper, who presents himself to government demanding compensation based on his needs, or his goodness, in equality to the physician urging on him the courage to demand his equal pay!
The Leftist has a simple prescription for the inequality of pay you, the taxpayer, pay him more.
c. Marxism: tax the surgeon more so the good-willed other will feel momentarily better, implementing their vision of a perfect world, a Utopia.

What is strikingly similar about the Islamofascist and the Marxist is that they both have no compunctions about deciding what is best for others, and blowing up other people, or blowing up society, if they don't get agreement.
