The word "terrorism" in the United States usually brings to mind plots linked in some way to al Qaeda, while the danger posed to the public by white supremacists, anti-abortion extremists and other right-wing militants is often overlooked.
Militants linked to al Qaeda or inspired by jihadist ideology have carried out four terrorist attacks in the United States since September 11, which have resulted in 17 deaths. Thirteen of them were in a shooting incident at Fort Hood, Texas, in November 2009.
By contrast, right-wing extremists have committed at least eight lethal terrorist attacks in the United States that have resulted in the deaths of nine people since 9/11, according to data compiled by the New America Foundation.
And if, after investigation, Sunday's attack on the Sikh temple in Wisconsin is included in this count, the death toll from right-wing terrorism in the U.S. over the past decade rises to 15.

They might want to take a gander at stormfront before declaring white supremacists to be right wing. In 2010 they were raising money for Cindy Sheehan.
He was a Nazi. A National Socialist. I really wouldn’t call that right wing.
Nine? In the last decade? Nine people were killed in Chicago last week...
well which is it ..neo nazi or white supremist? And I did not know they had special bands. I got an idiot on another site telling me white supremists all republicans. I dont think so.
Utter nonsense. Childish and fatuous beyond belief.

That Hassan guy who shot up the mobility line at Ft Hood was a Right-Wing extremist? Whoda thunk it?

I'm not excusing the crime - and I'm glad the skinhead anti-semite was killed - but that has nothing to do with Israel-supporting Tea Party members. The nut probably had more in common with 'Occupy' types than he had with any conservative.
In today’s America, George Washington would’ve been considered a terrorist. My how much we’ve CHANGED.
Its the lefties who have Always been on the side of Nazi's (National SOCIALISTS) or The Union of Soviet SOCIALIST Republics.
I want to beat the people with a Clue Stick, they are on the side as Hitler! Wouldn't that bother you!?
Hell, the Democrats were the Party of Slavery! I remember my stupid peers in College wearing "Democrat '08" I wanted to go up to them and Say "Democrats: Party of Segregation and Separate But Equal"
We are surrounded by Idiots.
I remember being puzzled when people used to call the pop-smoking skinheads in New York “right wing” because they are racists.
News for these jerks. There are plenty of left-wing racists. Historically, the Democrat party was the party of racism for more than a hundred years.
The Sikh temple shooter was in a racist punk rock band, and looks like a hippie in most of the photographs of him in that role. Nothing conservative about it.
But, of course, the leftist propaganda meme is that if you’re a racist, you must be a rightist. Not true, as even the most cursory observation of history demonstrates.
Just not by the Victors.
I remember in College one of my Stupid History teachers had a Parthian shot one day as we were leaving class that "Remember the Founders were a bunch of Slave owning white men, who didn't want to pay their taxes"
I reminded her the next day that those taxes helped to support the British Military in the Conquest of Places like India and Africa (Because our taxes go towards conquering Iraq and the time you see)
She didn't bring that point up again.
A few yeas ago my niece was threatened with a bad grade from a professor at Western Michigan if she wouldn’t agree that Lincoln was a democrat.
They know they’re lying but the agenda calls for it.
Fortunately, no one watches CNN ( Communist News Network), so no one give a flip about what they say!

Only in Europe is a Nazi considered right wing. In America Socialists and communists fall on the far left.
