Maybe organized violence is like über: it happens because existing institutions fails to capture both the needs of the people, and the talent that would have revolutionized their strategy. It happens because customer satisfaction has become a servant to shareholder satisfaction.

Except that for organized violence, we are the shareholders who are asking our economies and policies to please us. We are the once who are turning a deaf ear to the needs of the unseen; we are the ones who give up on the talent of those whose existence are an inconvenience to us.
