What they find is low paying or no jobs at all and are treated as second class citizens. It isn't hard for these immams(?) to feed on this misery.

Sounds like you enjoyed Syrianna.
When will this old myth stop?

This myth will not stop. It is a myth propagated by socialists or left-leaning "philosophers". Bradclark1 does have a good point about revolution and poorer people likely to instigate it as they feel they have little or nothing to lose. But this just doesn't apply to the fanatacism of Islamic Fundamentalism. They're not driven by poverty.
Lefty's and socialist types push this nonsense to try and coerce us to change our ways. For example Patty Murray (D-Washington) stated a couple of years back that the reason many in the Arab world love and honor Osama is because he is building daycare centers.
Almost implying that socialism would save the day. What a nut. Oh Patty, if we only changed our government into one that has universal healthcare, universal preschool, universal welfare, universal nose-wiping, etc. and provided the same to the Arab world, maybe they wouldn't hate us. Yeah...right.
