Two women were arrested in New York today for allegedly planning an ISIS-inspired plot to use “weapons of mass destruction against persons or property in the United States,” according to the Justice Department.

In a press release praising the FBI and the NYPD for their work on the case, Senator Dianne Feinstein of California said the following:

I am particularly struck that the alleged bombers made use of online bombmaking guides like the Anarchist Cookbook and Inspire Magazine. These documents are not, in my view, protected by the First Amendment and should be removed from the Internet.

The Anarchist’s Cookbook is a DIY bomb-making manual written in the early 1970s by William Powell, a young American living in New York who was protesting U.S. involvement in the Vietnam War. Powell went on to disown the book and express regret that it had ever been published. But the book lives on in print, as well as in thousands, perhaps millions of digital copies on the Internet. …

And old re-runs of MacGyver.

I have a copy of the book and its nowhere near as good as the US Army Special Forces Manuals on the same subject. I bought it just for giggles and ( ).

She just sees such information as subversive to complete government/elite rule over the populace,

and such subversive thoughts, speech or information cannot be allowed.

She misspoke, she meant "The Bible".

• Feinstein: 'We Cannot Let Israel Determine When and Where the United States Goes to War'
• Senator: We Can't Let Israel Determine When We Go to War
• Diane Feinstein: 'We can't let the Joooz control America'

Or an early to mid seventies Britannica...
Lots of things in those that are no longer in today’s touchy feely soft sciences version.
