Clara Why would you want to think that about something so serious? |
Rather off topic, but... By the way check the strength of the american dollar...then look up their favorite way of increasing its strength. |

A recent documentary I saw emphasized that the US is more in danger from home grown terrorist with crazed jihad ideas being embedded in US citizens / residents with personal issues. These US citizens do not necessarily work for Al Qaeda , but most definitely follow their ideals. Personally I see them like those who carry on the 'Nazi ideals' of today. There also seems to be a growing complacency among those in the US who have forgotten 9 / 11. New York law enforcement alone broke up 6 plots already because of arrests in planning stage - people are skeptical but law enforcement says that is because the public is complacent.

Are you a domestic terrorist?
How does the government finger domestic terrorists? Glenn spent the better part of two hours reading through this document from the state of Missouri, highlighting some of the warning signs that a citizen may be a militia member. Some of the criteria here will shock you. While some of it is valid, it can easily be abused by authorities. Things like promoting anti-government sentiment, such as being against the IRS. Are you a domestic terrorist? Ref. Source 6
To be truthful I am more concerned about a domestic threat here on US soil than I am of a foreign attack. With the freedoms that most americans and those that live here have it is a lot easier for them to acquire the stuff needed to attack a target here in the US. I am one that will always watch out for a possible attack on our home soil.
True we do not need to import crazy people or those with a need for vengeance we have enough of our own.
I think to me the caret part is what happens when a simple black out occurs. Riots break every where, I ma sure our own people are the enemies greatest weapon in many cases.
I am just content that this group was caught before they could fulfill their plans.
