Feds: Christian militia needed to be 'taken down'
hosted ^ | Mar 30

DETROIT (AP) -- Federal authorities had been monitoring members of a Michigan-based Christian militia for some time but were forced to "take them down" over the weekend after learning of an imminent threat against police, the U.S. attorney leading the prosecution said Tuesday.

Barbara McQuade's comments came three days after eight members of a small group of "Christian warriors" were arrested in several Midwestern states and a day after the FBI nabbed a ninth suspect, Joshua Stone, following a standoff at a trailer in rural Michigan.

"The time had come that we needed to arrest them and take them down,"

Yes, this is a "take down" where the leaders in charge thought they would not have surrender form a bunch of dirt poor white trash militia men, that they would fight to the last man.

They were mistaken. Its also an indication that their investigative information was compromised. I bet there was an informant who dressed up the truth and they got in there and found a bunch of good old back woods boys, who wouldn't hurt anyone. Now they have some trumped up charges, like sedition?

I mean cop killers inthis country are without exception ex cons with a history of repeated violent crime. These are more readily available in the populations being trained by the Muslim militias by Jamaat Al furqua.I do not see one man in that group picture who even looks like an ex con. Certainly they would not as militia have a convicted felon who was in their group because of firearms laws. So they allegedly planned to kill police officers by executing a police officer and then blowing up the funeral? Sounds like a conversation held for the purpose of entrapment. We will have to see.

Okay, Francis. You can’t find even one example to compare with this and now you’re getting nasty, like a littl girl, because you were called out on it. You have been an apologist for government excesses since you signed up here.

LOL! Right you are! Any Muzzie terror action that has been stopped has been done so quietly (everything I’ve read), due process, and often totally behind the scenes.

No big street theater like this one.

This is beyond obviously a staged show to instill fear in the opposition and jack up the rabid followers and to flex their pathetic little muscles and make themeselves feel big and powerful instead of the 97# weaklings that they are.

Did you expect them to seriously fight? That little 11 year old or 12 year old kid that stole the car and was chased by the cops a few days ago put up more of a fight than these guys.

White trash is right, by the way. I had the sound muted on the TV and when I saw the photo of them, my first thought was that the cops had busted a bunch of inbreds running some trailer park meth ring. If that's what passes for a militia up in that part of the country....

One thing I do know is that Christians, at least the ones that believe in Luke 22:36, would resort to violence only in self-defense.

A main difference between Islam and Christianity is that the martyr in Christianity is killed without killing. Stephen, the first martyr is the perfect example of this. A true Christian knows that God is in control and that it is AN HONOR to die for the cause of Christ. To live is Christ TO DIE is GAIN.

If a similar incident existed in regards to arresting some Muslims we would all be able to name it off the top of our head.

Our four agents who have infiltrated the group say they talk big about what they want to do and some of it isn’t nice.”

Reality was probably that the four infiltrating agents suggested the attacks on LEO. Anyone in a an organization suggesting violence against a government that is virtually in a state of collapse, seriously has some issues. Just sit back, pop the popcorn, and watch the collapse. At the very least, plan for building a new country from the ashes of the old one. Because, as those Russian Hackers plainly state, GaMeOvEr. I could see a fascist state that was running a fiscal surplus needing some help to collapse. But this basket case run by these idiots ?

Absolutely. There have been no scenes like this at all, although plenty of Islamic terrorist training camps that would definitely warrant such tactics.

Well how much truth do you want? These guys were threatening the government of the USA?Give me a break! They might have gotten togethre enough focus and financial resources to destroy a wrecked car in a gravel pit.

Yet we have more than a dozen Jamaat Al Furqua para military training compounds in this country that train Islamofascists , and then they go abroad for further training in Pakistan and Yemen befoere returning to the USA as tourists abroad. Many of them have full shooting ranges and bunker facilities.Why doesnlt the FBI raid them?

What we have here is prosecution for political purposes. I mean these yayhoos were plotting to kill cops? Is any one of them a former convict with a history of violent crime?No one else kills cops in this country, a bunch of white trash militia dirt poor farmers do not kill cops. It sounds positively weird, like some kind of entrapment conversation pulled over some slow thinking rednecks by some jazzy FBI informant, with the script written by Rahm Emannual.

We have had singe terrorist take n down, and a few prosecutions of individuals who had done fund raising ofr Islamofascists. No para military commpaound has ever been raioded by the FBI or anyone else from the Federao giovernment.

At Islamberg, New York, the FBI supported a boy scout group there.

We are talking camps that have full shooting ranges and bunker facilities. None have been raided.

The FBI did , they had hundreds of federal officers, and armored vehicles dedictaed to the assaut if these militia men.They expected them to fight.IMHO they expected them to die so they would have a new political correctness forged in their blood, dedicated to branding conservatives with the broad brush of the incident, as militant extremists. Why? So that politcal dissent on health care would be seen as politically incorrect, bordering on criminal.

People do not even begin to understand what we are dealing with, its a fascist Junta, not the government as we USED to know it.

On top of all that the head of the FBI in the area is a Mohammedan.
