recent ones occurred in Baghdad and a Marathon competition in Boston. The first question to be answered is that who committed the act? To answer the question, you almost always come across a fanatic who has been involved with an extremist group, otherwise the terrorist is a lunatic person. In case of mentally ill attackers the reason is obviously explained by psychologists but in case of extremist bombers the reason is complex and sometimes bizarre which requires different specialists to clarify the issue. Extremist invader usually belongs to highly manipulative groups that exploit their members to deliberately injure or kill other individuals or even their own comrades.

But that doesn’t seem to be working because they continue to run away whenever possible. He gives himself as an example of a typical member saying that he joined when the MEK believed in anti-Imperialism struggle. When they killed post-revolution government officials on 7th Tir, 1360 with a bomb, the MEK said it was ‘destroying America’s nest in Iran’ and Massoud Rajavi announced ‘we have rendered the regime without future and destroyed their contact with Imperialism by bombing this building and killing the people in it’.
