Terrorism is partly about socialising, but I don't think that can be the whole story, for two reasons:
If terrorism is just about socialising why don't they just go down the pub or whatever -- it's far less likely to get you killed or banged up.
Socialising is a human universal, so what makes different societies have different amounts of terrorism?
Maybe they want to associate themselves with a high status group rather than any other one? Terrorist organizations have money and a purpose after all.
