It must surely be obvious to even the most dense observer that "Thunda"
is in fact a pawn of the UCAS Government's military-industrial complex.

His terrorist actions - targeted at expendable, largely SINless
metahumanity (or "subhumanity" as senior UCAS political figures are wont
to call them) are intended to cause a wave of fear and panic, leading to
calls for "strict crime control measures" in the name of "public
safety", following on from the unreasonable strictures already imposed
following the supposed assassination of President-elect Dunkelzahn (who
threatened to undermine the power of the military-industrial cabal).

I predict an immediate tightening of security, and the immient
declaration of martial law and the disarming - by force if necessary -
of the citizenry as the necessary prelude to this operation.

With this in place, it will then be "found necessary for the sake of
good order" to replace the elected civil government with a military
junta. At this point, as the bombings and shootings continue seemingly
unabated and unstoppably, a series of arrests of "dangerous terrorists"
will be made.

Between these two methods, all those likely to be effective opponents of
the military dictatorship will be either arrested, killed or forced into
hiding. The wave of terror will only end when the populace have been
disarmed, disenfranchised and all dissent ruthlessly quashed.

With this achieved, the extermination of all citizens of metahuman race
may begin without fear of opposition, as this cycle will be repeated in
other parts of the UCAS until democracy is merely a forbidden memory and
the yoke of military-industrial dictatorship is hung squarely about our
necks.

This, though, is merely a step along the path the generals and tycoons
have mapped out: they intend a war of conquest, the white man retaking
the Native lands by force, using conscript cannon-fodder heedless of
loss or cost, or of the environmental havoc being wrought by their acts.

I call on the denizens of Shadowland to act at once and resist this
plot. Do not be fooled! Thunda is a pawn of the Federal bureaucracy,
probably a SIGA agent, and the blood of his victims is squarely upon the
hands of the UCAS Government!]

[Don't you just love this guy? Every time you point out to him how wrong
he was the last few times he did this, he just claims that as proof he
was _right_, since he exposed the Government Plot and prevented it from
happening.

I wish Thunda was one of ours, we'd just flip his 'off' switch. Instead
I guess I'll have to pacify him with a .357 lobotomy.]
