Terrorism, American-Style

Socrates' Academy is one of the few right-wing bloggers I read because, while he is often wildly wrong, he is at least an independent thinker and doesn't simply parrot Karl Rove propaganda. Independent, creative thinking is a rare thing on the right side of the political spectrum and it should be encouraged. Within limits. Writing about the six delusional Jihadists who wanted to attack Fort Dix, he concluded:
Any day now, we'll surely hear about some non-Muslim terrorist.
Don't hold your breath. ~ Socrates' Academy - May 9, 2007
Non-Muslim American Terror Groups (partial list)
  • American Coalition of Life Activists ~ Noted for publishing a hit list, complete with home addresses, of abortion providers. They claim they don't do any of the actual killings, they simply rejoice when someone they target is murdered.
  • Animal Liberation Front ~ Called a "leading domestic terrorist threat" by the FBI for mostly non-violent acts of graffiti and property vandalism.
  • Army of God ~ Radical Christians who believe God has granted them the authority to kill abortion providers. Followers have bombed abortion clinics and shot doctors.
  • Aryan Nation ~ White supremacist disciples of Adolf Hitler who urge the violent overthrow of the United States government. Suspected of funding their activities through bank robberies. One follower murdered the family of a Chicago area judge.
  • Christian Identity Movement ~ Believe that Anglo-Saxons are the only true children of God. Their most prominent terror act was the Olympics bombing in Atlanta in 1996. Tied to armed robberies and murder. Preferred targets are Jews, non-whites, and gays.
  • Earth Liberation Front ~ Radical environmental group that is prone to arson.
  • Ku Klux Klan ~ America's oldest, best know terrorist organization.
  • Militia Movement ~ Another right-wing anti-government movement. A favored tactic is exploding IEDs (pipebombs) at government facilities. Another tactic they have used is to form "common law" courts, try people in abstentia, and then threaten to execute punishment as a form of extortion.
This country is chock-a-block with free-lance terrorists, and rather more efficient ones that the sad collection of Muslim terrorist wannabes we have. In the last couple of decades, non-Muslim terrorists have blown up the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City, shot up several schools (there have been 12 school shooting since George Bush was elected president), threatened scores of federal judges, bombed abortion clinics and killed doctors, sent anthrax to several politicans and journalists, attacked, beaten, and killed an unknown number of Hispanics, African-Americans, Jews, and gays.

Terrorism is as American as apple pie. You guys at Socrates' Academy can breath again.

The terrorists are people like you who murder helpless babies in the womb by the thousands. God has a place for you and all anti-Christian bigots and babykillers like you.

Damn shame no one aborted you anon. The world would be a more peaceful place without religious hemorrhoids like you touting your opinions like some sort of absolute scripture. As if such a thing could exist.

Great article btw.
