Homegrown Us Terrorism
Before planes flew into buildings, the US had a few taste of terroristic activitities. Groups like the Black Liberation Army, Jewish Defense League and the Weathermen (Weather Underground) exploded their fair share of bombs before any jihad.
Imagine the following communique' as it was called:
| QUOTE |
| Hello. This is Bernardine Dohrn. I'm going to read A DECLARATION OF A STATE OF WAR. This is the first communication from the Weatherman underground. All over the world, people fighting Amerikan imperialism look to Amerika's youth to use our strategic position behind enemy lines to join forces in the destruction of the empire. Black people have been fighting almost alone for years. We've known that our job is to lead white kids into armed revolution. We never intended to spend the next five or twenty-five years of our lives in jail. Ever since SDS became revolutionary, we've been trying to show how it is possible to overcome the frustration and impotence that comes from trying to reform this system. Kids know the lines are drawn revolution is touching all of our lives. Tens of thousands have learned that protest and marches don't do it. Revolutionary violence is the only way. Now we are adapting the classic guerrilla strategy of the Viet Cong and the urban guerrilla strategy of the Tupamaros to our own situation here in the most technically advanced country in the world. Che taught us that "revolutionaries move like fish in the sea." The alienation and contempt that young people have for this country has created the ocean for this revolution. The hundreds and thousands of young people who demonstrated in the Sixties against the war and for civil rights grew to hundreds of thousands in the past few weeks actively fighting Nixon's invasion of Cambodia and the attempted genocide against black people. The insanity of Amerikan "justice" has added to its list of atrocities six blacks killed in Augusta, two in Jackson and four white Kent State students, making thousands more into revolutionaries. The parents of "privileged" kids have been saying for years that the revolution was a game for us. But the war and the racism of this society show that it is too ######ed-up. We will never live peaceably under this system. This was totally true of those who died in the New York townhouse explosion. The third person who was killed there was Terry Robbins, who led the first rebellion at Kent State less than two years ago. The twelve Weathermen who were indicted for leading last October's riots in Chicago have never left the country. Terry is dead, Linda was captured by a pig informer, but the rest of us move freely in and out of every city and youth scene in this country. We're not hiding out but we're invisible. There are several hundred members of the Weatherman underground and some of us face more years in jail than the fifty thousand deserters and draft dodgers now in Canada. Already many of them are coming back to join us in the underground or to return to the Man's army and tear it up from inside along with those who never left. We fight in many ways. Dope is one of our weapons. The laws against marijuana mean that millions of us are outlaws long before we actually split. Guns and grass are united in the youth underground. Freaks are revolutionaries and revolutionaries are freaks. If you want to find us, this is where we are. In every tribe, commune, dormitory, farmhouse, barracks and townhouse where kids are making love, smoking dope and loading guns-fugitives from Amerikan justice are free to go. For Diana Oughton, Ted Gold and Terry Robbins, and for all the revolutionaries who are still on the move here, there has been no question for a long time now-we will never go back. Within the next fourteen days we will attack a symbol or institution of Amerikan injustice. This is the way we celebrate the example of Eldridge Cleaver and H. Rap Brown and all black revolutionaries who first inspired us by their fight behind enemy lines for the liberation of their people. Never again will they fight alone. |
That was from July 31, 1970. The Weathermen went on to explode bombs, break Timmothy Leary from a federal prison, start several riots in racially tense cities and strangely enough disappeared. Many years later, those that were not caught turned themselves in and found themselves in the educational systems of the US.

Now that was one active terrorist group. They were also, along with the Black Liberation Army, one of the most hunted by the FBI.

Wikipedia has a nice chronology of terrorism in the US:

These groups were active until at least 1981. The early 70's were probably the most prolific time of domestic terrorism in the US. Just do a search on the internet for SDS, Black Panthers, Black Liberation Army, FALN, Weather Underground, KKK, Jewish Defense League and you will find more information. The rhetoric used by these groups sounds very familiar with today's terrorists.

Audio from 1982 that will blow your mind
The President and all of the people who shrug off claims that radicals and revolutionaries are in and around this White House probably haven't heard this audio from 1982. It's from an FBI agent who had been undercover working to get info on Bill Ayers's domestic terrorist group The Weather Underground. The FBI agent talks about what the group said after he asked what they will do if they achieve their takeover of the United States government. The answer explains why the mainstream media never bothered to show it. Ref. Source 3
