No link yet, only from live broadcast:

In a press release just handed to Fox by the FBI, the six Michigan residents, two from Ohio, one from Indiana are charged with “seditious conspiracy.”

Reportedly, Hutaree is accused of attempted use of weapons of mass destruction. Charges range from August 2008 to today.

The militia group Hutaree are said to have conspired to oppose by force the authority of the US Government.

The members viewed local, state and federal law enforcement as "the brotherhood," also known as their enemy, and have been preparing, the FBI says, to engage them in armed conflict.

According to one plan released by the FBI, the group was to kill a law enforcement officer, then during the funeral precession, hit again with IEDs to kill more LEOs.

Good points you’ve made — thanks for that.

[LibertyRocks]

I would think there may be sufficient evidence (particularly in some terrorist groups within the US that have been linked to several major attacks that were successful), however the “relationships” that have been made with those groups MAY be valuable enough to preclude breaking it up. [I’m trying to be optimistic here because nothing else makes sense to me, frankly.]

bingo

Why did CAIR know about this?

Who was the provocateur? The tactics sound islamic jihad in style.

I called this group idiots yesterday for not controlling their language and giving the government the reason to jackboot them. Giving the government the easy reason to pull this off yesterday.

This group based, on their website, may have been a bit out there with the “We’re in God’s Army” rhetoric and belief...but the tactics they are accused of don’t match up. They would have been preparing for God’s return and the call-up of Christian Soldiers, not for terrorist tactics they’ve been accused of.

This whole thing stinks like dead fish.

Hey hun! I’m with you on this. I think it behooves us to wait for more details. *IF* these charges are proved true then these [blank]s need to suffer for it...

I think we’ve also more than “earned our right” to be questioning of our federal agencies (after all, our forefathers TOLD us to be vigiliant anyway...). Not even just because of Obama and Holder (although it’s interesting that for 8 years we didn’t see these headlines — since Clinton’s presidency). I know I try to be optimistic about some of the things I’ve seen the FBI (and probably the CIA, too) seemingly completely ignore, but it does give one pause when considering cases like the one before us here.

You’re right that it is VERY sad when one wonders who to trust at times, nowadays...

I question the timing...

[maine-iac7]

“any law of the United States...”, “oppose by force the authority thereof...” With these words, the Government can pass any law and you are not allowed to fight for your liberties in any way, no matter how heinous the law.

Under this - those 16,500 new IRS agents they are hiring to enFORCE the Health bill (A LAW) - could, when they charge, fine, jail you for not having insurance, could also charge you with 'sedition' for being against the law -

Heck, they could start arresting people today - starting with the Tea Partiers and Rush, etc, for speaking out against the LAW...

How far will they take this?

Is this what this coordinated attack is about - the MSM railing (with what we all know are lies) against the Tea Partiers and accusing them of inciting violence - and this raid - the first volley?

[Steve Van Doorn]

thank you

[LibertyRocks]

Yeah, I noticed that definition of WMD as well... Like many other words in the liberals’ dictionaries - the meaning changes dependent upon the circumstances to benefit them.

[Candor7]

Its all planned. Obama doesn't want to have to offer yhose right wing militia folks a beer in the white house to "talk things out!"

THE GOVERNMENT FEARS US. THEY FEAR OUR DEMAND TO FOLLOW THE CONSTITUTION

REAL people are taking to the streets, formerly silent, they demand change.....the government becomes frightened.

They call REAL Americans who dissent by the names of violent racists, provoking violence?

No , mainstream America is awakening to take control of their government, That means the leftists will be "runned OFF."

Of government is afraid of its own people because THEY CANNOT be manipulted by propaganda or lies. That was not in the Obama Alinsky game plan?

Thats because we are not Europeans. We are Americans, and we are on a roll.Yes the government is afraid. Because for the first time they realize that they can never control us.

So they send out the FBI, and launch a suppression of dissent campaign against the people, with politicians saying that we need to go home and shut up, they are afraid?

Then see us and tremble.We are here to stay.

You say: “How many domestic Muslim terrorists and groups are dedicated to overthrow the US Constitution in favor of sharia law - by any and all means necessary?”

We may see them in action soon enough. They may be the first wave of obyummers private ‘security force”

ANY one that voted for this traitor - is complicit in what is happening in this country. There is no excuse to say “but I didn't know” - ALL the information on what this man was and is was available before the election. If you can't so your homework - don't vote.

[LibertyRocks]

THANK YOU! That was most educational, and extremely appreciated at the moment! I may share this on Facebook to pass on the knowledge - very useful! :)

[JadeEmperor]

>> This is a christian militia thats patriotic, they were
>> following the laws of the constitution.

BS. They don’t even fly the American flag on their website or their youtube videos.

[LibertyRocks]

Yep, I noticed that too. As I said in a different post on this — the liberals change words at will when it benefits them...

“Besides, it’s not the media’s credibility that’s in question here, but the FBI’s”

Personally, I would trust the FBI faster than I would the lamestream media. The media have NO credibility.

[OldMissileer]

Is this what this coordinated attack is about - the MSM railing (with what we all know are lies) against the Tea Partiers and accusing them of inciting violence - and this raid - the first volley?

I believe it is a part of the first volley.

The leftists, MSM included, are firing this out to see if it starts making cracks and will totally attack if they think they see the chink on the armor.

[little jeremiah]

0thugga and Holder have done tons of crap already and they’re still sitting pretty.

[little jeremiah]

Sitting pretty for now. Not forever.

[LibertyRocks]

Even though it can cause confusion to those who don’t read the entire article it is right to define Lyon as a “Republican” (though not the same as today’s definition of such) vs. the other party of the time which espoused “Federalism”.

[Plus, this would probably cause a few liberals’ brains to explode so that’s just an added benefit that to me overrides any possible confusion! LOL — just joshing of course!]

[little jeremiah]

Sheesh, another one?

ATX, could you quote some of the people here who are “defending” this group? I see many people saying “if they were planning to kill cops they should hang” which I think is excessive punishment just for plotting, although jail time is definitely warranted.

I see not one single person here saying “so what if they were planning to kill cops, no problem”. Everyone wants to know the truth, and many people rightfully doubt the MSM and whatever spew is issuing from this administration.

So, please quote who is “defending” these guys.
