Most Of America’s Terrorists Are White, And Not Muslim

The Force is With Me
When it comes to domestic terrorism in America, the numbers don’t lie: Far-right extremists are behind far more plots and attacks than Islamist extremists.

There were almost twice as many terrorist incidents by right-wing extremists as by Islamist extremists in the U.S. from 2008 to 2016, according to a new report from The Nation Institute’s Investigative Fund and The Center for Investigative Reporting’s Reveal.

Looking at both plots and attacks carried out, the group tracked*201 terrorist incidents on U.S. soil from January 2008 to the end of 2016. The database shows 115 cases by right-wing extremists ― from white supremacists to militias to “sovereign citizens” ― compared to 63 cases by Islamist extremists.*Incidents from left-wing extremists, which include ecoterrorists and animal rights militants, were comparatively rare, with 19 incidents.

While the database makes a point of distinguishing between different groups within right-wing extremism,*lead reporter David Neiwert*told HuffPost that “those are all gradations of white supremacy, variations on the same thing.” When it comes to right-wing extremism, attackers are also “mostly men” and “almost purely white,” Neiwert said.

Attacks by right-wing extremists were also more often deadly, with nearly a third of right-wing extremist incidents resulting in deaths compared with 13 percent of Islamist extremist cases resulting in deaths. However, the sheer number of people killed by Islamist extremists ― a total of 90 people killed ― was higher than the death toll at the hands of right-wing extremists ― 79 people killed.

Meanwhile, President Donald Trump has focused his rhetoric and policies almost entirely on countering Islamist extremism, and not white supremacist extremism.

“As with a lot of things related to Trump and the Islamophobic right, the reality is viewed through an upside-down looking glass,” Neiwert*said. “The reality is the most significant domestic terror threat we have is right-wing extremism.”

The Investigative Fund’s findings reflect those of previous studies of domestic terrorism. The New America Foundation, for instance, which has been tracking deadly terror incidents on U.S. soil since the Sept. 11 attacks, also finds an almost two-to-one ratio of attacks by far-right extremists to Islamist extremists, with 21 deadly attacks by far-right extremists, compared to 11 by Islamist extremists.

Despite the facts, many Americans still associate terror attacks with Islamist extremists rather than far-right extremists, Neiwart noted.

“I think the larger perception in the public ― and this includes many progressives and liberals ― is the inversion of the reality: that the greatest threat we face is Islamist radicals,” Neiwert said.“ And it’s reflected in the way the press report upon various kinds of domestic terror attacks: When it’s a white domestic terrorist, they underplay it, write it off to mental illness.”

---

At the end of the day, it’s not only on the government to acknowledge the reality of the growing threat of far-right extremism, according to Neiwert, it’s on everyone from members of the media to average Americans.

“First thing we need to do is recognize that it’s there, it’s a problem, it’s a threat ― as great a threat as Islamists,” Neiwert said. “And it needs to be taken seriously.”

Evidently, part of the problem is ignorance. There are many people in rural America (aka "the land that time forgot") and posters here who are still living in the 1840s, and have never met or talked to a Muslim. It is much easier to see Muslims as nefarious and dangerous if one has never met one, than it is to think there might be a problem with Billy Bob and his AK-47 and high capacity ammo clips.

What one may tentatively call the "ignorance" divide can apparently even be mapped geographically....

In rural America, fewer immigrants and less tolerance

An insurance salesman in rural Louisiana worries that immigration will sink the United States further into debt. In the Ohio countryside, a father of five says immigrants lower wages. But in New Orleans, a lifelong urbanite credits immigrants with rebuilding her hurricane-scarred neighborhood.

A Washington Post-Kaiser Family Foundation survey of nearly 1,700 Americans — including more than 1,000 in rural areas — reveals that attitudes toward immigrants form one of the widest gulfs between U.S. cities and rural communities.

Rural residents are more likely than people in cities or suburbs to think that immigrants are not adapting to the American way of life. The poll also finds that these views soften in rural areas with significant foreign-born populations.

“I think it’s just people not getting out there and knowing their neighbors,” said Adam Lueck, who lives in a rural part of Minnesota and thinks immigrants strengthen America.

Well, if you're going to go down that road.......

59,564,420 babies have been ripped apart, beheaded, burned, poisoned, tortured and murdered by white, black, Muslim, male, female (and Lord knows what other identity) terrorists in the U.S. since 1973
and 17,869,327 of those babies were black.
 
Leftist morons seldom like facts; they are better at making their own bullshit up. Let's take a look back in history for the religion of peace and attacks by Muslims:

2017.01.06 USA Fort Lauderdale, FL Killed: 5 Injured: 6
A convert to Islam guns down five innocents in the baggage claim area of an airport.

2016.06.13 USA Orlando, FL Killed: 49 Injured: 53
An Islamic extremist massacres forty-nine people at a gay nightclub.

2015.12.02 USA San Bernardino, CA Killed: 14 Injured: 17
A 'very religious' Muslim shoots up a Christmas party with his wife, leaving fourteen dead.

2015.07.16 USA Chattanooga, TN Killed: 5 Injured: 2
A 'devout Muslim' stages a suicide attack on a recruiting center at a strip mall and a naval center which leaves five dead.

2013.04.15 USA Boston, MA Killed: 3 Injured: 264
Foreign-born Muslims describing themselves as 'very religious' detonate two bombs packed with ball bearings at the Boston Marathon, killing three people and causing several more to lose limbs.

2009.11.05 USA Ft. Hood, TX Killed: 13 Injured: 31
A Muslim psychiatrist guns down thirteen unarmed soldiers while yelling praises to Allah.

2001.09.11 USA New York, NY Killed: 2752 Injured: 251 Islamic hijackers steer two planes packed with fuel and passengers into the World Trade Center, killing hundreds on impact and eventually killing thousands when the towers collapsed. At least 200 are seriously injured.

2001.09.11 USA Washington, DC Killed: 184 Injured: 53
Nearly 200 people are killed when Islamic hijackers steer a plane full of people into the Pentagon.

2001.09.11 USA Shanksville, PA Killed: 40 Injured: 0
Forty passengers are killed after Islamic radicals hijack the plane in an attempt to steer it into the U.S. Capitol building.
