Abstract :

The Autopsy of Terrorism in the Syrian CrisisAbstractVarious reasons have led to the radicalization of some Islamist groups in some Islamic countries like Syria.  These factors can be found in elements such as identity, depression and distrust, the perception of insecurity and irresponsibility, the expansion of Western culture in Islamic countries and the contradiction of Islamic values with Western culture, the lack of consolidation of the culture of rationalism and democracy in Islamic Countries.  Also, the humiliating and insulting attitude of the West towards Muslims, as well as the dependence of some leaders of Islamic countries, especially Arab, on Western countries, and the lack of attention of some political systems to the needs of the people have affected this. The support of the Arab media for the spread of extremism in the Muslim world and the Western media and the interventionist policies of some regional countries, such as Saudi Arabia and Qatar, have contributed to the spread of terrorism.  In the Syrian crisis, there are various influences of internal and external conflicts that can be grouped into different criteria, such as historical and modern, geographic criteria, and regional affiliation.Keywords: Syria, radicalism, fundamentalism, Saudi Arabia, Media, Terrorism, Non-fundamentalism.
