Answer to Question 2

Some political criminals want to intimidate or threaten an opponent who does not share their political orientation or views. Some political criminals plot to overthrow the existing government and replace it with one that holds views they find more acceptable. Another goal of political crime is profit: selling state secrets for personal enrichment or trafficking in stolen arms and munitions. Other political criminals are motivated by altruism; they truly believe their crimes will benefit society and are willing to violate the law and risk punishment in order to achieve what they see as social improvement. Pseudo-conviction political criminals conceal conventional criminal motivations behind a mask of conviction and altruism. They may form a revolutionary movement out of a hidden desire to engage in violence rather than their stated goal of reforming society. Pseudo-convictional criminal is particularly dangerous because they convince followers to join them in their crimes without fully revealing their true motivations
