According to Kai Brand-Jacobsen, the roots of terrorism can be traced back to the rise of colonialism in the 16th and 17th centuries. Imperialism led to race ideology – the idea that certain people are superior to others based on history, skin colour, gender or even a political system. And this 'Chosen People Complex' continues to thrive today
