Black Widow

I recall in the 70s PLO used scandinavian girlfriends to smuggle bombs on to planes.  The girl said she considered suicide 20-150 times per day. I suppose  secular consumerist values even prevalent in Russia are insufficient. Like the Islam in prison video below it seems some people need very simple answers. Perhaps the world is just too complicated nowadays to discover deeper meaning. Obviously her love interest was also very superficial.  This type of thing can happen anywhere. Ideology is irrelevant. If a young person has no meaning or direction they presume that the govt or leaders are bad, i.e. they rebel. Even Sri Aurobindo, who led India's independence movement before Gandhi, finally withdrew from superficiality of politics to religious life. Any system of power no matter how good will succumb over time to human nature. 

I think of the line from the Beatles song Revolution:

"If you want to change the constitution oh well you know why don' t you change your mind instead."

Obviously without good will a constitution is not worth the paper it is printed on. W put that more succinctly during his tenure in the White House. " The constitution is just a goddamned piece of paper".
