The attempt to dismantle an entire security infrastructure in a nation is a nightmare. The portent of it is seen in a widespread mobilisation of people in one state against another. It may be a random attack, but it’s more likely to precede a particular initiative. This is the precursor to a supposed rise for a people that don’t really deserve it.
The act of it is really a facet of something else that we’ve seen before. The pick and choose mentality of so many by so many now is a feature of our modern context. It may not yet meet a threshold of radical activity, but it’s extremism in its barest form.
