State Department: White supremacist terror 'on the rise and spreading'
The Hill ^ | June 25 2020 | BY J. EDWARD MORENO

Racial and ethnic terrorism, particularly white supremacist threats, are "on the rise and spreading geographically" according to a State Department report released Wednesday.

"The threat posed by racially or ethnically motivated terrorism (REMT), particularly white supremacist terrorism, remained a serious challenge for the global community," the report reads.

In 2019, the world experienced an uptick in white terrorism, such as the Christchurch, New Zealand, mosque shooting in March and the El Paso, Texas, shooting in August.

White terrorist groups "increasingly target immigrants; Jewish, Muslim, and other religious minorities; lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and/or intersex (LGBTI) individuals; governments; and other perceived enemies," the report found.

In April, the State Department designated a white supremacist group, the Russian Imperial Movement, as a "foreign terrorist organization" for the first time.

300+ cities destroyed by white supremacists this summer disguised as Antifa and BLM activists.

Let me get this straight...

All the major cities of the United States and many in the rest of the world have been convulsed by massive riots, arson, destruction, vandalism and not a few murders of police and others. One of them in my hometown.

The flames are not out yet and there are still sporadic outbreaks of violence.

But...the “government” of the United States says the threat is...white people.

Got it.

Guess the last 3 weeks never happened.

Same lies they used against the Tea Party protests. The ones I went to left the area cleaner than when they got there.

Most conservatives have no interest in brown nosing Arabs or Africans, and have zero inclination to work at the State Dept..

If it’s white supremacists, it’s a reaction to the past three weeks of extreme provocation, and probably what BLM was hoping to cause.

It’s amazing that we have extremely well compensated people sitting around promoting these human bites dog stories. Well, I guess they don’t have to work hard and their nests will be well feathered when they take their retirements at young ages.

Unfortunately, if this country is to stay alive, that's going to have to change.
