Anyone looking for yet another positive aspect of international adoption need look not further than this report from India:

Security agencies in Jammu and Kashmir have been startled by revelations that a large number of people arrested on suspicion of being terrorists are not actually so, but are unemployed youths, orphans and petty criminals ready to carry out attacks for a price.

Investigations in the recent terrorist strikes in the state revealed that unemployed youths, orphans and petty criminals were ready to carry out terrorist attacks for amounts between Rs. 5,000 ($109) and Rs. 15,000 ($327), depending on the nature of the threats they might have to face.

'For the past few months we have been arresting people who neither have past records of any terrorist activities nor have they had any training,' said A.P. Maheshwari, Inspector General of Police, Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) in Srinagar.

'During interrogation we found that they were not linked to any groups in particular but were paid small sums of money to carry out attacks against the security forces,' Maheshwari told IANS.

Officials said the nature of attacks was limited to throwing a grenade at a bunker of security personnel or a gun shot at an official in a busy market place.

'Most of these individuals are orphans, unemployed youths and petty criminals who desperately want money to make a living,' said Maheshwari.

With many slamming international adoption as a of theft of birth culture and harping on the negatives of life in transracial families and communities that lack diversity, this dose of the real world … the world many, many children face as the only possible future … goes along way toward pointing out what should be obvious: bad things happen.
