From a political standpoint, terrorist attacks are first and foremost attacks against THE STATE not the citizenry and that&#x27;s why you see the Establishment is up in arms every time such a tragedy occurs because they know that the terrorists are challenging their authority and jeopardizing their power  in the land.<p>The Establishment really don&#x27;t care about road fatalities or substance abuse related deaths of the populace. They only care about their wealth and power.
