Terror From the Right

-snip-

A draft internal document from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security that was obtained this spring by The Congressional Quarterly lists the only serious domestic terrorist threats as radical animal rights and environmental groups like the Animal Liberation Front and the Earth Liberation Front. But for all the property damage they have wreaked, eco-radicals have killed no one — something that most definitely cannot be said of the white supremacists and others who people the American radical right.

In the 10 years since the April 19, 1995, bombing in Oklahoma City, in fact, the radical right has produced some 60 terrorist plots. These have included plans to bomb or burn government buildings, banks, refineries, utilities, clinics, synagogues, mosques, memorials and bridges; to assassinate police officers, judges, politicians, civil rights figures and others; to rob banks, armored cars and other criminals; and to amass illegal machine guns, missiles, explosives, and biological and chemical weapons. What follows is a list of key right-wing plots of the last 10 years.

1. Of course it's hidden...

I mean, if some right-wing, religious nut advocated the assassination of a world leader, he'd be arrested, or at least.... oh, wait. Never mind. :evilgrin:

2. interesting that you can get 11 years for plotting to bomb and kill

and 80+ for freeing mink from fur farms

3. Does this even count all the other terrorisms?

Gay bashings? Racial attacks? Attacks on religious minorities?
