If certain human traits have faded over the centuries, the tendency to use violence to push for a goal is not one of them. We have kidded ourselves in many ways, not least over the notion that we are now civilised and noble and could never ever do anything like this.

Probe of Bangkok bombing recalls bad reputation of police
By GRANT PECK

BANGKOK (AP) — Investigating a crime with little forensic evidence, no clear motive and no claim of responsibility — like the Bangkok bombing that killed 20 people — would challenge anyone.
