“A month before a suspected white supremacist walked into the Holocaust Memorial Museum in downtown Washington and opened fire, the Department of Homeland Security warned that domestic right-wing extremism was the most pressing domestic terrorist threat that the country faced.”
“The man authorities say was the shooter at the Holocaust Museum, James von Brunn, was a well-known white supremacist who had railed against blacks, Jews, and the power of the federal government. In 1981, Brunn walked into the Federal Reserve Board with a shotgun, according to news reports. In another incident in early April, three police officers in Pittsburgh were killed by another reported white supremacist.
In another recent high-profile incident, George Tiller, a Kansas doctor who performed legal abortions, was shot and killed last Sunday as he stood in the aisle of his church. Scott Roeder, the man charged in Tiller’s murder, echoes the DHS report on right-wing extremism. Believed to have been a member of an antigovernment militia in Montana during the mid-1990s, Roeder had a history of railing against taxes and abortion, according to news reports. “We can see from these incidents that the U.S. is not immune from these types of attacks and that a lone gunman or cell can kill just as effectively,” says Bruce Hoffman, a terrorism expert at Georgetown University. “But it also shows that those operating outside an organized terrorist network lack the training and tradecraft to make their attacks either sustained or a systemic threat.” After the killing, the U.S. Marshals Service was instructed to increase security at the country’s abortion clinics.”

Homeland Security Warns of Rise in Right-Wing Extremism
“An intelligence assessment released to law enforcement last week claims news of recession, the election of an African American president, rumors of new gun restrictions and the inability of veterans to reintegrate create fertile ground for radicalizing and recruiting right-wing extremists.” Fox News

absolutely
Liberal Democrats are destroying this country from the inside. I am sure Bin Laden is thankful for all you have done.
Without a doubt. I clearly remember when the report came out about domestic right wing nut jobs. People on this board, right wingers, started their usual paraoia and pulled out their “I’m a victim/white christians are being persecuted” card. Two attacks since the report, and I’m sure there’s more on the way.
Wow, FOX posted a news article? That’s a first.
For once, they’re right.
Obama is creating them by declaring war on them. Isn’t that what you guy said about islamic terrorists? Maybe both you and Obama should look at yourselves and think about what you did to provoke it.
You know Lamlighter, you use to be one of the better liberals who I actually liked, but if you keep posting crap like this, that will no longer be the case, not that you would care, but still. You and I both know comparing them to Al Quada is quite the stretch and way out of line. God bless.
right-wing domestic terrorists tend to be loners, even the largest attack involved only a few people (OK city). They don’t have the resources to mount massive attacks, but their attacks do occur more often.
And they made Janet Napolitano apologize for releasing the report. Napolitano should apologize for not slapping them.
Al -Qaeda -right wing nuts are two sides on the same coin.
Limp lighter is the little boy who never grew up and needs big daddy to take care of him. I’ll bet that you work for the government or some other mundane job. Go move to Russia you good communist . Look at how many good liberals killed each other in the South side on a daily basis. Why do evil dictators support Obama? Do you hate America because you are a loser?
Will this be used to sway Americans to go along with political profiling, which is essentially what that DHS memo entails? Do you think it should?
If this memo came down from the Bush administration, would you support it?
Do you know how many of our prisoners are becoming Muslim in prison? Do you have a problem with that?
I favor equal treatment under the law and due process. I do not think we bend the US C for certain groups. Al qaeda? Not American citizens and I’m for keeping a difference in our understanding about how civil rights work about this. But Obama thinks otherwise. So, what we have is a president who thinks foreign enemy combatants should be apprised of US civil rights and supports taking them from certain Americans he deems a threat. No way does that work for me.
What about left wing muslim terrorists killing our soldiers on American Soil?…..
Oh wait some may not have heard the story since it happened the same week Obuma made his mulsim speech.
The attacker in the holocaust museum had an address to a conservative news agency publication in his pocket,that was just up the street.A secondary target.The man was the product of liberalism.
By the way,What party was the unibomber affiliated with,and who’s book did He have when He was caught in the cabin?
I think your way off base here ,Lamp man
With the encouragement of the crazy filth on hate radio and Fox, they will ultimately. That’s why those degenerate scum exist.
Incidentally, Osama bin Laden and Al Quaeda ARE right wingers, just from outside the U.S. These religious crazies are ALL right wingers, even if the religion and the holy book might change. And that INCLUDES the convert who shot the soldier. Naturally, BlimpBag’s lunatic followers aren’t allowed to know this.
The scum bags can’t change reality, so they’ll do their insane spin control and encourage the crazies to do damage, and when caught, as the lying filth did with von Brunn, they’ll say, “Oh, he was a leftist. See? He didn’t like Beck and he was registered as a Democrat in Alabama in 1959, he’s a leftist!” Wow! What wonderful “proof” these lowlife slime employ!
One of the right wing neo-Nazi crazies spun off the “lone wolf” theory for the crackpots, because of course, the government had some success against the right wing KKK and American Nazi Party, other clearly right wing lunatic organizations, when they were more firmly congealed.
And the “deniability” is also part of the agenda for these malicious, criminal perpetrators. Notice how quickly they found little flecks to disassociate themselves from von Brunn?
Old Nazi tactic from WAY back!
These scum ARE Nazis. And it’s very, very obvious.
a random act of viviolencend you call it terrorism What about all the afro-american shootings and holdups across the nation? are these random acts librial terriorism since they vote 99% dem? I dont even have to read this article.
This is getting rediculus.
Yep, EXCEPT that these are NOT necessarily RIGHT WING extremists.
They are JUST extremists. They have a specific gripe/grudge in most cases and could be right, left, middle, or nowhere POLITICALLY!
The claim of right-wing is just another Obama scare tactic. I note that the Republicans did something similar many years ago, claiming the extremists were left-wing.
For whoever is in charge, the primary point is to blame SOMEBODY ELSE!!
They are being mis-labled as they are leftists.
Actually, I was surprised, and of course relieved, that Election Night 2008 was violence-free. I expected Angry White Men, ‘specially here in the South, to start shooting. It’s taken awhile, but yes, they’d like very much to destroy the fabric of society.
Problem is, they’re far too self-centered, ignorant, and lazy to pull of anything other than random shootings. This in no way is meant to make light of recent tragedies. No, they’re not Al Qaeda. They’re just beer-guzzling losers who blame their failures on others and can’t stand the fact that a Black graduate of Harvard Law is now their President.
RUSH, BABY! I WAS LOOKING FOR A CHANCE TO TALK TO YOU!!
You know, dude, I’d say that guys who slaughter people for political purposes, but aren’t as spectacularly good at it as Al Qaeda, are lower the worms, maggots, and slugs. Right down there with you.
