Elementary Terrorism

When the SBIS ( Swaziland National Brodcasting Service) studios first burned down, it was condidered an act of negligence on the part of the employees. In the second attempt it was reported that the fire was actually the result of arson. It is, of course possible that radical forces were involed in the attempt to subbortage the radio station.

However, certain questions remain unanswered. For example: "Why would a government not increase security at the studios after it had been gutted down twice before ." Moreover," if people are able to evade security at the studios then it is possible that the culprits are actually people who have daily acess to the station." These are the questions that need to be answered before anybody can sincerely take the idea of a terrorist burning down a building and then leaving behind evidence that will incriminate his/her organisation.

With a court case still pending on the PUDEMO members that were arrested when arson first became a trend in the country, it could be that some agent provocateours are intent on causing alarm within the country so as to give the state support in the event that it decides to enforce the very dubious "Terrorism Bill" that parliament has been ordered to approve.
