No, the Obaminites aren’t going to put the lid on the story. Hell, it’s the FBI. So we know it’s at least partly a lie. Saying that it’s white supremacists. So now we know it’s entirely a lie. That sort of thing is what Clintonites and Obaminites love.

Yeah, the Government never lies or fabricates a story for some higher-up’s agenda...

What I'd like to know is: What was his target?

He evidently thought a little town in mid-Maine would be a safe haven for ‘assembly’ - but what was his target?

Right on time...! Lemme guess —Black churches in the south are burning, too? Right?

And this is fundraising season for the SPLC, and uh...I’m pretty sure the Reichtstag is burning down, right?

I’m talking about extremists of the Timothy McVeigh variety.

The muzzies were aiding McVey. See "John Doe # 2," aka Jose Padilla.

There's a lot of speculation about McVeigh having connections with a right wing survivalist group in the OK City vicinity.

BS. Look up John Doe # 2 and Jose Padilla.

Neo-Nazi groups were in cahoots with Islamists during the ‘90s, too.

Exactly. "John Doe # 2" = Jose Padilla.

Sure, whoever #2 was we already know who #1 was. Timothy may have had a M.E. extremist with him or not.

But we do know at least about Timothy. Not a muslim extremist.

We know about McVeigh. We don’t have confirmation on who #2 was.
That’s a liberal type of thinking, seeing it when they believe it that I don’t have.

So we only know about the right wing extremist and a theory of alliance with a potential muslim extremist.

That’s not typical either as David Horowitz wrote a book about the typical alliance of the Left wit Islamic extremists called, “The Unholy Alliance.”

My comment was about "a lot of speculation" ~ are you denying that people speculate about the relationships alluded to?

Think about your comment before you say that what I said is BS.

“The skinheads are not from the right wing political thought in the USA. They are from the NAZI left from Germany. “

BINGO!!

From the article:

“An application for membership in the National Socialist Movement filled out by Cummings also was found in the residence, according to the report.”

SOunds like Obama’s party to me....(eye roll)

It's reported this guy was living on a trust fund - of 10 million a year!

Another member of the Evil Rich. If only he had been taxed into equality early on, or had found a charming communist mulatto alien to fund into office, this tragedy would have been avoided...
