      XPost: alt.fan.rush-limbaugh, alt.california, or.politics       XPost: alt.politics.economics, alt.philosophy, alt.society.liberalism       XPost: talk.politics.misc, alt.security.terrorism       From: No_TrumpenFascists@yahoo.com              According to the Government Accountability Office of the United       States, 73% of violent extremist incidents that resulted in       deaths since September 12, 2001 were caused by right wing       extremists groups              Right-wing terrorism is terrorism motivated by a variety of       ideologies and beliefs, including anti-communism, neo-fascism,       neo-Nazism, and a mindset against abortion. This type of       terrorism has been sporadic, with little or no international       cooperation. Modern radical right-wing terrorism first appeared       in Western Europe in the 1980s and it first appeared in Eastern       Europe following the dissolution of the Soviet Union.              Right-wing terrorists aim to overthrow governments and replace       them with nationalist or fascist-oriented regimes.[1] The core       of this movement includes neo-fascist skinheads, far-right       hooligans, youth sympathisers and intellectual guides who       believe that the state must rid itself of foreign elements in       order to protect its rightful citizens. However, they usually       lack a rigid ideology.              Reconstruction era       The term "white terrorism" is used by scholars to label       terrorism committed against African Americans during the       Reconstruction era.              Right-wing terrorism and violence has a long history in       America". Right-wing violent incidents began to outnumber       Marxist incidents in the United States during the 1980s and       1990s. Islamic studies scholar Youssef M. Choueiri classified       Islamic fundamentalist movements involving revivalism,       reformism, and radicalism as within the scope of "right-wing       politics".              During the 1980s, more than 75 right-wing extremists were       prosecuted in the United States for acts of terrorism, carrying       out six attacks.              In 1983, Gordon Kahl, a Posse Comitatus       activist, killed two federal marshals and was later killed by       police. Also that year, the white nationalist revolutionary       group The Order (also known as the Brüder Schweigen or Silent       Brotherhood) robbed banks and armored cars, as well as a sex       shop, bombed a theater and a synagogue and murdered radio talk       show host Alan Berg.              The April 19, 1995 attack on the Murrah       federal building in Oklahoma by Timothy McVeigh and Terry       Nichols killed 168 people and was the deadliest act of domestic       terrorism in the history of the United States. McVeigh stated       that it was retaliation for the government's actions at Ruby       Ridge and Waco.              Eric Rudolph executed a series of terrorist       attacks between 1996 and 1998. He carried out the 1996       Centennial Olympic Park bombing—which claimed two lives and       injured 111—aiming to cancel the games, claiming they promoted       global socialism. Rudolph confessed to bombing an abortion       clinic in Sandy Springs, an Atlanta suburb, on January 16,       1997, the Otherside Lounge, an Atlanta lesbian bar, on February       21, 1997, injuring five and an abortion clinic in Birmingham,       Alabama on January 29, 1998, killing Birmingham police officer       and part-time clinic security guard Robert Sanderson and       critically injuring nurse Emily Lyons.                     As of June 2015, right-wing attacks since the September 11       attacks (9/11) had claimed more lives than attacks       committed by jihadists Thereafter, jihadist terrorist attacks       (the 2015 San Bernardino attack and the 2016 Orlando nightclub       shooting) raised the Islamic extremist death toll above that       caused by right-wing extremists. As of July 2016, the New       America Foundation placed the number killed in terrorist       attacks in the U.S. (since 9/11) as follows: 94 killed in       jihadist terrorist attacks, 50 killed in far-right attacks, and       5 killed in far-left attacks. New America's tally shows       right-wing terrorist attacks causing 68 fatalities since       September 11, 2001. These were:              The 2017 murder by driving a car into counter-protestors there       to protest against the alt-right in Charlottesville, Virginia       (1 killed).              The 2017 Portland train attack (2 killed),              The 2017 stabbing of Timothy Caughman in New York City (1       killed),              The 2017 Olathe, Kansas shooting (1 killed),              The 2015 Colorado Springs Planned Parenthood shooting (3       killed),              The 2015 Charleston church shooting (9 killed),              The 2014 ambush attack on Las Vegas police officers (5 killed),              The 2014 Overland Park Jewish Community Center shooting in       Kansas (3 killed),              The 2014 Pennsylvania State Police barracks attack in Blooming       Grove, Pennsylvania (1 killed),              A 2012 tri-state killing spree by white supremacists, David       Pedersen and Holly Grigsby (4 killed),              A 2012 ambush of St. John the Baptist Parish, Louisiana police       (2 killed),              The 2012 Wisconsin Sikh temple shooting (6 killed),              The 2011 FEAR group attacks (3 killed),              A murder in 2010 in Carlisle, Pennsylvania (1 killed),              A 2010 suicide attack by airplane in Austin, Texas (1 killed),              The 2009 shooting of Pittsburgh police officers (3 killed),              The 2009 United States Holocaust Memorial Museum shooting (1       killed),              The 2009 assassination of George Tiller (1 killed),              The 2009 murders of Raul and Brisenia Flores in Pima County,       Arizona (2 killed),              The 2009 murders in Brockton, Massachusetts (2 killed),              The 2008 Knoxville Unitarian Universalist church shooting (2       killed),              And the 2004 bank robbery in Tulsa, Oklahoma (1 killed).              Other recent events include:       The 2017 Transylvania University stabbing[40] (0 killed),       The 2016 Comet Ping Pong shooting (0 killed).                                   alt.california,or.politics,alt.politics.economics,alt.philosoph       y,alt.society.liberalism,talk.politics.misc, talk.atheism,       alt.security.terrorism                                                                                                                                                                 .https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right-       wing_terrorism#United_States              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
