Engineers more likely to become terrorists

A new book as outed engineers as a group more likely to generate terrorists than any other profession.

Writing for the European Journal of Sociology Diego Gambetta, of the Italian European University Institute and Steffen Hertog, an associate professor have a theory.

They added up all the numbers and divided it by their shoe size and found that engineers are much more prone to become members of violent terrorist organisations.

Apparently twice as many members of violent Islamist organisations have engineering degrees as have degrees in Islamic studies. Nearly half of those terrorists who had degrees had degrees in engineering.
