New Study: White Americans are the Biggest Terrorist Threat in America


This is some interesting news today.

A study by the New America Foundation has note that White Americans are the biggest terror threat in the United States. The research group looked at the attacks from Sept. 11, 2001 and according to their findings, these attacks came from radical anti-government groups or white supremacists.

Here's more
Almost twice as many people have died in attacks by right-wing groups in America than have died in attacks by Muslim extremists. Of the 26 attacks since 9/11 that the group defined as terror, 19 were carried out by non-Muslims. Yet there are no white Americans languishing inside the prison camp at Guantanamo Bay. And there are no drones dropping bombs on gatherings of military-age males in the country's lawless border regions.

Attacks by right-wing groups get comparatively little coverage in the news media. Most people will struggle to remember the shooting at a Sikh temple in Wisconsin that killed six people in 2012. A man who associated with neo-Nazi groups carried out that shooting. There was also the married couple in Las Vegas who walked into a pizza shop and murdered two police officers. They left a swastika on one of the bodies before killing a third person in a Wal-Mart parking lot. Such attacks are not limited to one part of the country. In 2011, two white supremacists went on a shooting spree in the Pacific Northwest, killing four people.

American Born al Qaeda member Arrested


Adam Gadahn, known for being the American-born spokesman for al Qaeda, captured and arrested today.

Adam or sometimes known as Azzam al-Amriki, was born and raised in Riverside County, California. He later converted to Islam near the OC.

Here more:
The arrest of Gadahn is a major victory in the U.S.-led battle against al Qaeda and will be taken as a sign that Pakistan is cooperating more fully with Washington. It follows the recent detentions of several Afghan Taliban commanders in Karachi. Gadahn was arrested in the sprawling southern metropolis in recent days, two officers who took part in the operation said. A senior government official also confirmed the arrest.
Some background on Adam:
Gadahn moved to Pakistan in 1998, according to the FBI, and is said to have attended an al Qaeda training camp six years later, serving as a translator and consultant for the group. He has been wanted by the FBI since 2004, and there is a $1 million reward for information leading to his arrest or conviction.

He has posted videos and messages calling for the destruction of the West and for strikes against targets in the United States. The most recent was posted Sunday,
praising the U.S. Army major charged with killing 13 people in Fort Hood, Texas. A U.S. court charged Gadahn with treason in 2006, making him the first American to face such a charge in more than 50 years. He could face the death penalty if convicted. He was also charged with two counts of providing material support to a designated foreign terrorist organization.

Lord, Not Again!



A fool claiming to be an agent of al-Qaida tried to blow up yesterday.
Flight 253 with 278 passengers aboard was about 20 minutes from the airport when passengers heard popping noises, witnesses said. At least one person climbed over others and jumped on the man. Shortly afterward, the suspect was taken to the front of the plane with his pants cut off and his legs burned, a passenger said.

One U.S. intelligence official said the explosive device was a mix of powder and liquid. It failed when the passenger tried to detonate it.
"It sounded like a firecracker in a pillowcase," said Peter Smith, a traveler from the Netherlands. "First there was a pop, and then (there) was smoke."

Smith said a passenger sitting opposite the man climbed over people, went across the aisle and tried to restrain the man. Syed Jafri, another passenger, said he saw a glow and smelled smoke. Then, he said, "a young man behind me jumped on him."

"Next thing you know, there was a lot of panic," said Jafri. Smith said the heroic passenger appeared to have been burned.
What was this freak thinking? This fool is still be questioned, but I find it interesting that he told everything right off the bat. I wondering if he's really with al Qaeda. I guess we will see.

Guess who are considered Terrorists?


The State Police of Maryland really have no idea about the difference between terrorists groups and activists. And while hate groups and gangs are growing wild, they made sure that one group stayed under heavy surveillance.

Equality Maryland.

The peaceful gay rights group is considered to be the dirty Cobra and Destro-like terrorist organization.

The Washington Post reported that the group are classified as terrorists in a Maryland State Police database. And Equality Maryland was also looked at as a "security threat" by the Homeland Security and Intelligence Division.

I'm a bit lost on this one, but I guess if you were in fear being turned into flag carrying queer, maybe in some warped world we would be a threat. I wonder who else is on this list. Comic Con? Fraternities? Book Club members? Who knows, but please check out the Equality Maryland's site to see how dangerous they are.

Get it Together, Amazon.com


Someone was not doing their job at Amazon. If you want an Obama mask for Halloween, don't just type in his name, type TERRORIST COSTUME.

Yes, these fools are really trying to get on my last nerves with this foolishness. Amazon has changed the search, but still, WTF? Ridiculous, I tell you, just ridiculous.

Barrel of Worms


Guilt by Association is McCain's and Palin's new tag for Obama these days. But if we looked closely at that aspect, McCain should back down.

Let list, shall we.

  • McCain voted with Bush 90% of the time so he would be charged for the downward fall of our country, right?
  • McCain worked closely with Strom Thurmond, Jesse Helms, and Robert Byrd. These men were widely known to be racists and Byrd was a part of the KKK for Hera sake.
  • Keating 5, nuff said.
  • Jack Abramoff and his dealings.
  • Tood Palin's silly band of pirates who want to be their own universe.
  • His ties with John Singlaub, a guy who led a controversial group who implicated in a secretive plot to supply arms to Nicaraguan militia groups during the Iran-Contra affair.
So McCainiac end the GBA talk, it's not helping you at all
