> if the underlying process that generates those numbers are widely different.

So stop the underlying process? Terrorist organizations aren't quiet about their problems, that tragic day in September was in opposition to US interference in their lives. If our goal was combatting terrorism, we picked a terrible way of addressing the problem.

To you these attacks are a valid grievance redressal mechanisms??? Is that the path every disenfranchised group should take?? If you are okay with such approach, no point in having a discussion.

It's not about whether you're ok or not with their methods. The question is, do you really, actually, want to stop terrorism, or are you just pretending, using the T-word as a political tool? The actions of not just US, but other western countries strongly suggest, that they don't actually care about stopping terrorism.
