Why do they cause terrorism?

16 years after 9/11: The state of the terrorist threat
http://edition.cnn.com/2017/09/09/opinions/terrorism-16-years-after-9-11-opinion-bergen/index.html

Direct instruction from ISIS or radicalists is no more a major cause of terrorism in the United States. The most horrible people are those who were brainwashed by such a radical ideology.
So, what the US government has to do is not to let people isolated from its society. Especially, those who can't interact with others and aren't satisfied with their lives are likely to be susceptible to that.

Why is it important to take care of scents?

Scents on a plane: Why the aviation industry is waking up to fragrance
http://edition.cnn.com/travel/article/airplane-cabin-fragrances/index.html

One of the biggest memory during the trip to the foreign countries is scents at each airport. Most of them come from duty free cosmetic retailers.
Every time I smell such scent, I realise that I'm travelling and enhances my motivation.
As far as my sense, it would be important to take care of scents.

Why isn't it possible to see high speed trains in Siberia?

Tracklaying complete on Harbin – Jiamusi fast line
http://www.railwaygazette.com/news/single-view/view/tracklaying-complete-on-harbin-jiamusi-fast-line.html

Jiamusi is one of the nearest cities to Russian border. The direct distance between the border and Jiamusi is nearly one hundred kilometers.
So, high speed rail will have reached from Beijing to Russian border in the near future.
Though construction of China-Laos high speed rail was announced, China-Russian version is still pending.
Is it possible to see high speed trains in Khabarovsk some day?

Why are Japan's suburban department stores closing one after another?

Japan's suburban department stores in front of train stations are at crisis

Mitsukoshi-Isetan, one of the biggest department store chains in Japan, decided closure of Matsudo branch.
Like Matsudo branch, suburban department stores have been deprived of their customers by downtown stores in Tokyo and then forced to close or shrink the size of the stores. So, we can say that suburban stations around Tokyo are now losing their functions as downtowns of suburban cities.

Why are Rohingya people discriminated?

Aung San Suu Kyi blames 'terrorists' for Rohingya 'misinformation'
http://edition.cnn.com/2017/09/05/asia/rohingya-myanmar-bangladesh/index.html

Though I don't know if Rohingya is related with Islamic State or radical Islamic Principlists, Aung San Suu Kyi's policy wouldn't be ideal.
If she think that Rohingya has something to do with Islamic extremists, she should concentrate military power on the state or restrict entry to the state.

Oppression against Islamic ethnicity would generate Islamic extremists as rebellious movement.

Why do they want to build monorails in Yinchuan?

BYD-built monorail opens in Yinchuan
http://www.metro-report.com/news/news-by-region/china/single-view/view/byd-built-monorail-opens-in-yinchuan.html

In mid-20th century, monorail was expected to be futuristic transportation.
But, as a result, it couldn't be a major transportation in urban areas, because monorail trains cannot go through conventional railways and maintaining cost is higher than ordinary railways.

But, monorail can be superior to monorails, when it comes to mountainous cities.
Since I don't think Yinchuan is the case, I wonder why the city adapted monorail systems.
