Domestic Terrorism in the U.S.

There were a total of 17,284 reported murder and non-negligent manslaughter cases in the U.S. in 2017.

On average, there've been appx 16,500 homicides per year since 2000.

"From Sept. 12th, 2001, to Dec. 31st, 2016 — there have been 85 attacks in the country by violent extremists resulting in 225 deaths.

"GAO reported citing data from the U.S. Extremist Crime Database.

Of those 225 deaths:
• 106 individuals were killed by far-right violent extremists in 62 separate incidents

• 119 individuals were killed by radical Islamist violent extremists in 23 separate incidents

• The number of people killed in a given year ranged from one to 49."
(https://www.politifact.com/…/look-data-domestic-terrorism-…/)

In the 15 years between September 12th, 2001 and December 31st, 2016, there've been 106 people killed by domestic (non Jihadist/"far Right") terror attacks in 62 incidents. That averages out to appx. 7 deaths per year in appx 4 incidents per year.

Putting that into perspective that's 106 deaths out of the appx 247,000 U.S. homicides, or appx 1/25 of 1% (0.25%) of all homicides in America over that period.

THAT'S an accurate indication of the threat posed by (non Jihadist/"far Right") domestic terrorism and of the relative size and significance of that movement.

By comparison, urban gang violence accounts for more than half of all "black-on-black" homicides each year, somewhat over 4,000/year.

The focus on domestic (non Jihadist), especially "white supremacist terrorism" is a negligible portion of the homicides in the U.S.

So much so, that the total number of deaths by homegrown (non Jihadist) domestic terrorism from September 12th, 2001 to the end of 2016, 106 over those 15 years, is a negligible percentage (0.65%) of the 16,500 U.S. homicides in an average year!

In the past two weeks, we've had 3 mass shootings, resulting in a total of 43 deaths.

4 deaths, including the shooter, in California (by an apparent Eco Terrorist, Santino William Legan, who'd railed against "Paving over pristine places so that hordes of MEZTISOS and SILICON VALLEY WHITE TWATS can live here," 10 deaths, including the shooter, in Dayton, OH (by an alleged Antifa supporter), Connor Betts and 29 by an anti immigrant psychopath (Patrick Crusius).

Those 3 incidents alone account for 38% of the domestic (non Jihadist/"far Right") terror acts in the 15 years between September 12th, 2001 & the end of 2016.

This violence has been both inspired and encouraged by a malignant media that has continually hyped an ideological Cold Civil War, not merely since 2016, but with the media-inspired "War on Police," with the Ferguson Lie and its subsequent cheerleading for the Antifa violence that has plagued much of the country since.

Extremism in America?...

An ADL report (https://www.adl.org/murder-and-extremism-2018…) shows that extremism in the U.S. is actually a negligible threat, with just 50 murders due to extremism in 2018, out of just over 16,000 murders in the U.S. that year! That comes out to LESS than 0.3% or 3/10ths of 1%!

That's a testament to the success of the DHS, FBI, and local Police.

With just 49 whites out of appx 184 million whites in the country (appx 231 million when Hispanic-Whites are included, AND Hispanics are always counted as "white" in crime stats), it gives a clear indication of just how small the extremist white population is. Certainly significantly UNDER 1%.

Likewise, there've been only 76 U.S. deaths due to Islamic Terrorism between 2010 & 2018, with 49 of those due to the Pulse Nightclub shooting, which may NOT have been due to Islamic Extremism, but Omar Mateen's latent, or "closeted" homosexuality.

That proves how effectively the "War on Terror," both here and abroad, have been.

That ENTIRE report is good news!

WHY?

Because it clearly shows that terrorism of any kind has not been an issue within the U.S. since 9/11, despite Fort Hood, the Fort Dix Six, the Pulse Nightclub shooting, the San Berdino attack and a relatively small number of Nazi inspired attacks.

In 2018 there were 0 Jihadist attacks on U.S. soil. Reportedly Nazi groups killed 49 people that year. Many of those, prosecutors, judges and cops targeted by the nation's largest and most violent prison gang, the Aryan Brotherhood.

While 49 too many, it's LESS than 1/3rd of 1% (0.3%) of all homicides (16,000+) that year!

Urban gangs are responsible for most of the homicides nationwide. Gangs are why black Americans (appx 12% of the population) have committed over 50% of all homicides nationwide since 1976 AND it's why homicide is the leading cause of death for black males age 16 to 36, when homicide isn't in the top 5 causes of death for any other group. Most of those gang-related homicides are committed by young black males (less than 6% of the population)...a staggering statistic.

America has never had a "gun problem." It has long had a "gang problem."

Thanks to the DHS, local Police and the FBI, terrorism has not been a significant issue in America since 9/11.

Unfortunately urban gang violence has been a very major issue.

A Disastrously WRONG Focus on Terrorism....


















This Left-wing administration and an equally Leftist mainstream media’s inane focus on “domestic Right-wing terror” threatens to undermine our national security and put millions of Americans at an extreme and unnecessary risk


The arrest of 31 year-0ld Jamie Paulin-Ramirez (pictured above, bottom), in Ireland this week, has apparently given some people some very misguided “ammunition” against America’s focus on “radical Islamic jihadists.”

NEWSFLASH, BOTH Jamie Paulin-Ramirez and Colleen LaRose (pictured above, top) the suburban Philadelphia “soccer Mom” turned jihadist, were “radicalized MUSLIMS!

How bad is America’s PC strictures against properly DEFINING, let alone fighting the War on Terrorism (WoT)?

Well, this week, Lydia Khalil (pictured left), born of Coptic Christian parents in Egypt and grew up to serve on the NYPD’s counterterrorism Unit and is currently a fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations, wrote an incredibly misguided opinion piece titled, Stop Minimizing Right-Wing Terror, insinuating that America is threatened far more directly by its “militia movements” and Tea Party activists than it is by Islamic extremists!

OK, for one thing, Right-wing terror has been dwarfed over the last two decades by a far more real and virulent Left-Wing terror campaign – that of ALF, ELF and other radical Leftist terrorist organizations.

AND...ironically enough, the two latest “domestic terrorists” (John Patrick Bedell a/k/a “the Pentagon shooter” and Joseph Stark a/k/a “the Austin IRS kamikaze”) were BOTH ardent Leftists.

Bedell was indeed a registered Democrat, a Bush-hater (OK, who wasn’t), and an anti-Capitalist, which pretty much translates into an "anti-American.”

Likewise, Joseph Stark was a Bush-bashing, anti-Capitalist whose final message lauded Marxism over Capitalism (The Marxist creed: “FROM each according to his ABILITY, TO each according to his NEED.....The Capitalist creed: “From each according to his GULLIBILITY, TO each according to his GREED.")

Yes, undoubtedly BOTH these men were avowed Leftists a/k/a “Liberal Americans.”


And yet, Lydia Khalil starts her piece off with, “It's tax season and everyone hates paying taxes, so in a way it was easy to shrug our shoulders at the attack on the Austin, Texas, IRS building last month.”
                
She goes on attempting to link Joseph Stack to the Tea Parties and other “Right-wing” causes, “But violence by those espousing extreme anti-government views is no joke, and it's time to stop putting the serious and growing threat of homegrown right-wing extremism... Elected politicians are pandering to this anti-government sentiment in order to gain the so-called Tea Party, populist, "stick it to the man" vote.”

Lydia Khalil almost certainly means well, but good intentions count for nothing when you’ve got your facts wrong.

In one part of her essay she intones that, “Statements like these  (joking or even rationalizing anti-IRS anger) by elected officials who have sworn under oath to "support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic," are deeply disturbing.” While in the VERY SAME article she references the reprehensible Left-wing smear group The Southern Poverty Law Center, a group that has railed against The Oath Keepers (police, military and emergency responders who swear to uphold their oath to the Constitution and NOT obey any orders that would violate that oath) as “dangerous and conspiratorial!”
The fact is, “radical Constitutionalists” are part and parcel of America’s time-honored history, American “Liberals”/leftists are NOT.

As Barry Goldwater correctly stated, “Extremism in the defense of Liberty is no vice.”

As deep-seated and widespread as Left-Wing domestic terrorism is, it is currently dwarfed by the threat of radicalized Muslim “jihadist terrorism.”

And yet even a former counter-terrorism analyst for the NYPD, a woman born to a Christian group (the Coptics) in Egypt, who have been viciously persecuted by Islamists, SEE: http://uk.nntp2http.com/politics/misc/2008/06/fa09846aae9e652a717a14cbbf176126.html
AND: http://www.aina.org/news/20100303215642.htm)
 sees fit to minimize the jihadist threat, while (deliberately or not) mislabeling America’s most immediate and prolific domestic terror threat – it’s from the LEFT, NOT from the RIGHT.

Intentional or not, this is no menial slip-up, as this ill-conceived refocusing on domestic terrorism needlessly and foolishly puts millions of Americans at both an extreme and completely unnecessary risk.

We’ve already been attacked twice by jihadist terrorists during the current administration – the Fort Hood massacre and the attempted, yet thwarted Christmas Eve jet-liner attack over Detroit.

Apparently it’s going to take a significant body count to wake up some Americans.
