Holy fucking shit. You must be kidding. What the fuck did I just say in my post? "For some absurd reason Americans equate motivation with that which is justified." Of course Camus wasn't the best example but it does at least give credence to the idea that motivations do not have to be rational to be motivations. So let's take your example. Of course you can come to Toronto and blow my house up and you may want to blow some more houses up too. And that has NOTHING to do with justification. But if I wanted to stop you from blowing up houses, then my first step would be to find out your motivations.

the camel fuckers have come up with a myriad of reasons why

Of course we know what reasons they give and they change all the day depending on the situation. But who gives a shit what they say? There's a lot of stuff at work beneath the surface. If you're going to stop them, then that's the stuff you got to get at.
