ARE THE BOSTON DEATHS AND INJURIES WORTH IT?

Whether we call them criminals or terrorists, the issue of motive in the Boston bombings is becoming increasingly clear. The bombers were motivated to kill people at the Boston Marathon by the death and destruction wreaked by the U.S. national-security state in Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, and neighboring areas.
That’s not to say, of course, that statists aren’t doing their best to avoid confronting that possibility. The last thing statists want the American people to do is focus on U.S. foreign policy and the role it has played and continues to play in engendering anger and rage that culminates in terrorist attacks on the United States.
