    Default Former President Bush likens U.S. extremists to foreign terrorists

    Violent extremists in the U.S. and abroad are "children of the same foul spirit," former President George W. Bush said in his speech commemorating the 20th anniversary of the 9/11 terror attacks.

    We have seen growing evidence that the dangers to our country can come not only across borders, but from violence that gathers within," Bush said.

    "At a time when nativism could have stirred hatred and violence against people perceived as outsiders, I saw Americans reaffirm their welcome to immigrants and refugees," Bush said. "That is the nation I know."

    Yep, extremists like Antifa, BLM, and the like are a threat to the country. Far moreso than the miniscule group of similar thugs on Right are...

    Managing a lot used as a burial plot from those burning Bush's more perfect 9/11 union of "serve the Pope or die" & Islam "death to the infidels" in rendering 2,977 lives as insignificant as those thieving more than 24 US Constitutions for arson granted standing by this Christian Nation SCOTUS must be a happy day for Christiananality pedophilia's union except the master plan didn't accomplish nuking Temple Mount exterminating Israel.

    Yet President Bush lied about Iraq having something to do with 9/11.

    Far more attacks on America have been done by the white supremacists. The FBI has them as the biggest danger. 1-6 was an example.

    Classic failure of empire. The US sends military around the world supposedly making the world safe.
    Then the real attack comes domestically.

    Anyone is free to believe this, but believing something doesn't make it true.

    I agree that antifa is extreme.

    I disagree that BLM is.

    BLM is nothing more than the current holders of MLK's dream.

    There is nothing extreme about understanding that black lives matter.

    All lives matter.

    Black lives are lives, so black lives matter.

    Pure logic.

    MLK faced a lot of opposition for saying that black people should have just as much right to success as white people.

    BLM is facing the same opposition for saying the same thing.

    FBI: The biggest threat to America is from the extreme right. (Sept 17th, 2020)

    "The greatest threat we face in the homeland is that posed by lone actors radicalized online who look to attack soft targets with easily accessible weapons. We see this lone actor threat manifested both within domestic violent extremists (DVEs) and homegrown violent extremists (HVEs), two distinct sets of individuals that generally self-radicalize and mobilize to violence on their own. DVEs are individuals who commit violent criminal acts in furtherance of ideological goals stemming from domestic influences, such as racial bias and anti-government sentiment. HVEs are individuals who have been radicalized primarily in the United States, and who are inspired by, but not receiving individualized direction from, foreign terrorist organizations (FTOs).

    Many of these violent extremists, both domestic and international, are motivated and inspired by a mix of ideological, sociopolitical, and personal grievances against their targets, which recently have more and more included large public gatherings, houses of worship, and retail locations. Lone actors, who by definition are not likely to conspire with others regarding their plans, are increasingly choosing these soft, familiar targets for their attacks, limiting law enforcement opportunities for detection and disruption ahead of their action.

    DVEs pose a steady and evolving threat of violence and economic harm to the United States. Trends may shift, but the underlying drivers for domestic violent extremism—such as perceptions of government or law enforcement overreach, sociopolitical conditions, racism, anti-Semitism, Islamophobia, misogyny, and reactions to legislative actions—remain constant. As stated above, the FBI is most concerned about lone offender attacks, primarily shootings, as they have served as the dominant lethal mode for domestic violent extremist attacks. More deaths were caused by DVEs than international terrorists in recent years. In fact, 2019 was the deadliest year for domestic extremist violence since the Oklahoma City bombing in 1995.

    The top threat we face from domestic violent extremists stems from those we identify as racially/ethnically motivated violent extremists (RMVE). RMVEs were the primary source of ideologically motivated lethal incidents and violence in 2018 and 2019 and have been considered the most lethal of all domestic extremists since 2001. Of note, the last three DVE attacks, however, were perpetrated by anti-government violent extremists."

    FBI Director Christopher Wray, June 10th, 2021:

    " "in the last few years the most lethal attacks here in the homeland have been by individuals in that racially motivated extremist category, specifically for advocating for superiority of the white race.” "
