[ExI] terrorists

[William Flynn Wallace]

Here are some social psychological facts:

Any time you get a small group together of people who tend to be rather
rabid, there is a lot of conformity going on. People who disagree with some
of the group's agenda are urged out.

Who gets to be the leader?  Often it is the most rabid one, who calls those
who don't agree with his agenda wimps and so on.  Result:  purists.
Purists who cannot be changed by other opinions, facts, or whatnot.  Those
who don't fully agree keep their mouths shut.

Other than infiltration I cannot think of any way to stop these people from
planning and effecting their agenda.  Consider them brainwashed.
