CNN: American Right Wing "More Dangerous" Than ISIS
Truth Revolt ^ | 2/20/15 | Caleb Howe

Posted on 02/20/2015 10:58:14 AM PST by absentee

On CNN today, host Carol Costello was discussing the President's summit on extremism and made the startling comment. Citing a DHS report, Costello claims that authorities are concerned about "right wing citizens extremists". She goes on to add that they might be more dangerous than foreign groups.

She begins by echoing one of the Obama administration's frequent moral equivalency talking points, that terror is neither unique to Islam, nor is Islam necessarily the worst offender, and then takes off from there.

"ISIS isn't the only threat for Americans. According to an intelligence report by the Department of Homeland Security, authorities are also concerned about right wing citizens extremists right here in the United States that may be, in some cases, more dangerous than foreign Islamic terror groups." 

No examples of mass beheadings, hostage-taking, or planes being flown into buildings by right wing extremists in America were provided by the CNN anchor or the reporter she interviewed.

Carol should go to Iraq and do an interview with ISIS and see how nice they are


Carol needs to interview Lara Logan, first.

The whole underlying ideology of “liberalism” is anti-Christianity.

They just naturally see Christians (and any proxy like conservatives, etc) as the enemy... because we are.

All she needs is to go to Best Gore and see the scores of beheading and killings done by Both Islamic radicals and The Mexican and Brazilian cartels. I doubt she could handle it.

The political right should have picnic-style demonstrations and protests, Demonstrations in name only (DINO) and Protests in name only (PINO).

In very large numbers, great gatherings.

Don’t say anything inciteful, just good ol’ American fun and food.

This would be the same DHS report that lumped in as "right wing extremists" military vets, pro life supporters and conservative christians. They have paid as a consultant the SPLC which recently listed Ben Carson as a dangerous extremist for being a conservative.

America’s prisons are filled with murders, rapists and gang-bangers, most of which, would eagerly support obama over any conservative.

Expected, and right on time, too.

Just part of the dehumanization of the American right, before the purges and genocide.

Happens every time the left is in power.

Did you ever think you’d see the day where stopping Socialism/Communism in AMERICA, would be fought harder than terrorists who are raping and beheading their way across countries?

"The reason for this ridiculous mythology is what?"

Barry, via the news media, is prepping the American people for the incarceration (or worse) of pro-Constitutionalists. The import of thousands of 'Syrian refugees' with countless ISIS hiding among them is all part of the plan. Gun confiscation is also part of the plan. Puppet Hillary will continue the UN NWO cabal goal of transforming the USA into a Muslim Caliphate (Islamo-Fascist government).

The final act involves ISIS in America slaughtering their useful idiots, the Fascists beside them.

FU CNN and the rest of this LSM who has and still is covering for their messiah like a cult. I am sick of them lying for him or not informing people to what is going on in this country with illegals, ISIS, muslim terrorists, economy, spying on conservatives, Fast and furious, Benghazi.

You forgot Obamacare -- but most people at tax time will learn the hard way, so your omission is not a biggie...

Dehumanization prior to mass murders and mass incarcerations.

It's 1937 Germany, and our last names are all Goldstein.

I assume you are new here and thus unaware of the customary “Barf Alert” that is to be added to headlines from whackjob websites like CNN...

Presuming that they would identify me as one of those right-wing extremists, in the sense that they fear, we ARE a bigger threat than terrorists.

WE, that is we the right-wing tea party types, are considered a bigger threat because we are an obstacle to leftists staying in power in government. ISIS poses no such threat to them. In fact, ISIS further empowers the leftists (the REAL extremists) specifically because the public perceives ISIS to be a threat to their safety. Therefore, they need the big-government leftists to protect them.

Essentially, the DHS is admitting that they are really equating a threat to leftist control as a threat to our nation. Nothing could be further from the truth. We are a stronger nation when leftists like Obama and the rest of the Democrats are relegated to political sideline. Ever notice how miserable the country becomes when they are in power?
