I don’t care if the extremists are right wing or left wing. They are both dangerous and I’m glad the SPLC pursues them.

Granted it wasn’t on long.

If the SPLC is at all tuned in, perhaps they would be looking at this story as something akin to contemporary COINTELPRO tactics. Instead I’m finding it in the stream of info about hate crimes?

These guys probably wouldn’t have tried to blow up the bridge if the FBI hadn’t been around to supply them with explosives.

Are these FBI stings entrapment? Looks like it to me.

Your coverage fills a gap left by the mainstream press’s inability to grasp the gravity of right-wing extremism in America.

But there is always more to the story when it comes to anarchists. Their plot was hatched by an FBI informant:

Technically only nuclear weapons can be considered thus. Besides, according to the police report he believed he could destroy it at a time when there was virtually no traffic, so there was no intent to kill(even though it was a real possibility that anyone should have taken into account).

So, yeah, I want him charged!

Arrest them for using explosives, etc. but there was nothing going on about WMD.

I guess we really have no idea which country the US might invade in the future now. Anything from Bolivia to The Netherlands.
