That's an easy answer, unfortunately.  They're malleable, disaffected, 
and highly suggestible, and they are told half-truths laced with 
falsehoods and are misled into doing terrible things by people who 
present themselves as if they care for them, but they really don't.

Just read some about Maajid Nawaz, because he talks about his own 
radicalization and how he was recruited.  He got out, and now is working 
to provide a counter-message to what got him involved in being a 
terrorist.  It's interesting stuff.
