White Supremacists Our Most Dangerous Threat? A Whiter Shade of Tall Tale
The Stream ^ | May 4, 2021 | Timothy Furnish

In 2019 I wrote in these very pages about the lie that “white supremacist terrorism” is the greatest threat to Americans. Back in those pre-plague days, it was mostly the media spreading this myth. But now, it’s the President of the United States. Last week Biden, in his de facto State of the Union speech, claimed that “white supremacists” are “the most lethal terrorist threat to the US.” In fact, Islam’s jihadists pale in comparison. And Biden even adduced the federal intelligence agencies to support this contention.

The problem: it’s not even remotely true.

Foreign Terrorist Organizations Dominated by Jihadists

First, the global picture. The US State Department has published, for decades, a list of foreign terrorist organizations. As of today it has 72 groups. Fifty-six of those, or 78%, are Islamic ones. It also includes two new ISIS affiliates (Democratic Republic of the Congo and Mozambique). These were recently added by the Biden Administration. Of the remaining 16, seven are nationalist-separatist. Seven are Marxist. One is Jewish. One is eclectically apocalyptic (Aum Shinrikyo). None is “white supremacist.”

(This is defined by the Department of Homeland Security. It includes “individuals who seek…through unlawful acts of force or violence, to support their belief in the intellectual and moral superiority of the white race over other races.” And the Democrats and media constantly conflate “white” with “right-wing.”)

Other country’s lists are similarly chock-full of Muslim organizations. The United Arab Emirates’ terrorist manifest contains 86 groups, 85 of which are Islamic. (That must make the UAE’s Muslim rulers Islamophobic, I suppose.) The UK proscribes 55 terrorist groups, 47 of which (85%) are Muslim...

Where are these mythical white supremacists? I keep hearing about them, but every time I check the news it’s Antifa and BLM that are terrorizing people and destroying property. Incidents ascribed to white supremacists were all shown to have been perpetrated by the supposed “victim”.

I’ve yet to see an actual incident of white supremacist terrorism in our time. The American people are being gaslighted, or am I missing something?

Meanwhile the Islamists infiltrating our country are laughing their asses off.

"Where are these mythical white supremacists?"

I know a lot of Patriots all over the country - I don't know any "white supremacists", and nobody I know does either. They don't even know anyone who does.

Where are all of the white supremacists? I hear more racist supremacist rhetoric from blacks and the MSM toward whites than I do vice versa. As for attacks on blacks, the numbers support the fact that more whites are attacked by blacks by substantial numbers considering the proportion of the population that are black. I think the MSM and liberals are blowing lots of smoke up our butts.

But, but, but... All whites are racists!

Amazing how all these white supremacists made America the richest, most democratic, powerful, admired, stable, advanced, peace-loving, country on earth ever, but are now its greatest threat?

I’ll tell you who is the greatest threat: the same old communists as ever.

The next non-LEFT President is going to have to work very hard to get the doctrinaire LEFTists out of the ‘intelligence agencies’, a job that will exceed ‘The Twelve Labors of Hercules’! Otherwise, it is having a ‘fifth-column’ of antagonists, shooting arrows into your back!

The lies of the Democrat/totalitarians are literally insulting to the intelligence of anyone they are told to. But more so, to those who believe them, Democrat voters. I sense that more and more of these voters are experiencing “voter’s remorse”.

This is the FACT that must be focused on, which undermines those who have spread so many lies. Encourage your liberal friends to actually “wake up” and realize that they have been lied to, and will be oppressed just as much as anyone, once the totalitarians have secured power over us all.

“Where are these mythical white supremacists? “

Yeah, and more over, what is a “white supremacist”? You can’t debate it until we know what it is we’re talking about.

I agree with Joe.

Since all whites are by definition Supemicists...who is more capable as well as numerous in this country to do damage to communism, socialism, terrorism, than caucasians and their mixed breed offspring with a 16th or more white blood. What is that... 85% of the country?

Back when the Southern Poverty Law Center was actually keeping track of "white supremacists' they estimated roughly 5000 of them nationwide. That's right, five thousand.

Other estimates put it at half that because the five thousand included family members and ride alongs. So pathetically few in number they are that it is necessary for them to travel long distances to put up even a half-hearted demonstation such as the famous one in Charlotesville.

How many people know that the SPLC was founded by a convicted pedophile?
