The question of right-wing terrorism

via
Salon - The Blog Report - 5/23/2007


Rick Perlstein of Campaign for America's Future has a good post about the latest terrorist plot by fascist Wing Nuts at Liberty Universty. A group there, including a soldier stationed at Fort Benning and a high school student, good Christians all, were plotting to napalm any Liberal activists that might show up at Falwell's funeral. Christians & Napalm. Lovely. I left the following response at Salon:

A zealot is a zealot, no matter where they fall on the Judeo-Christian-Islamic time line. It's all the same destructive patriarchal religion telling these radicals that they have a divine right to kill anyone with whom they disagree.

It's that sense of entitlement - the entitlement to take a life for any reason - that we have to challenge. Until we do that, this nonsense will continue.

And I agree, Christo-fascism is a far greater risk to this country than Al Queda ever could be. It was those fanatics in the White House that dropped the ball and let 9/11 happen. When Bin Laden tried to attack us during the Clinton administration, the attack was thwarted. People in the intelligence community who tried to sound the alarm before 9/11 were ordered to drop it. The blame for 9/11 rests squarely on the shoulders of G.W. Bush.

Al Queada can't suspend Habeas Corpus. Al Queda isn't tapping my phone or reading my email. Al Queda didn't pass the Patriot Act without reading it. Al Queda wasn't planning to attack Liberal activists with napalm.
