SNIPPET: "A French couple arrested in connection with a series of anarchist attacks on the country's rail network have been linked by the FBI to a bomb attack in New York."
ARTICLE SNIPPET: "French anti-terrorist police are holding 10 alleged members of a violent anarchist movement suspected of sabotaging power cables on high speed TGV train lines.
But it now transpires that the alleged culprits were netted thanks to information from the FBI, which allegedly linked two of them to the home-made bomb attack on an army recruitment centre in New York's Times Square in March.
Julien Coupat, 34, the suspected head of the "anarcho-autonomist" group, and his 25-year old girlfriend, known only as Yldune L, were stopped allegedly trying to enter Canada from the US illegally in January. It was claimed they were carrying anarchist texts in English and photos of an army recruitment centre in New York.
Although they had left the US before the bomb attack, they had allegedly been spotted shortly before at American anarchist meetings in New York. Tipped off by the FBI, France's domestic intelligence services and anti-terrorist police had been watching them for months in a tiny village in the Corrèze region, central France."

That's really the bottom line, isn't it?
Especially after five years of living in the People’s Republic of Bostonistan, you betch!
It depends. For instance, French and anarchist might be a redundancy of language.
I once were on a train in Germany and anarchists were descending to Berlin to protest Bush’s visit. All German anarchists had a train ticket and were quiet, aside from their bright shirts and funky hair dos.
Then there were 4 french guys, working at a bank with suit and ties, there, chatting around, and going to Berlin for business. They all got fined for having no tickets and protested loudly and rudely ...
Aside from that, anarchists have a love hate relation with tyranny. They mostly involve themselves in gratuitous acts, all supporting terrorism to various degrees, but they all also look for government handouts, gratuity and “free orders” of combat, if that makes any sense. It only has to feel gratuitous in their mind and they love it. A cop behaving badly is an act of anarchists to them and they will vet it if the cop uses his powers for rioting.
It basicaly a form of self-isolating fashion communist.
Yes, all of it, all institutions.
The anarchists have been active forever but especially since the French revolution. Alqaida is merely more of the same.
Anarchists are a form of Moonbat, no?
Few of these people ever bother looking ahead. I remember the Seattle riots years ago, and when they interviewed some of the perps, I laughed when I saw them wearing retail clothing instead of animal skins. Anarchists are usually fringe individuals who destroy stuff in big temper tantrums because the politics does not give them their way.
