What is Turtle Island Liberation Front, the extremist anti-government group whose offshoot planned a NYE terror attack

Multiple splinter cell members of the radical Turtle Island Liberation Front, which posts disturbing slogans such as “Death to America” on social media, were arrested last Friday for allegedly plotting a New Year’s Eve terror attack in the Los Angeles area.

Turtle Island Liberation Front (TILF), a little-known “pro-Palestine, anti-law-enforcement, and anti-government” extremist group, has quietly been raising funds and resources to usher in a “revolutionary change in government.”

“TILF also calls for the working class to rise up and fight back against capitalism,” an FBI affidavit noted. “Moreover, TILF advocates that liberalism and peaceful protest will be the downfall of those who believe it is enough, and that ‘direct action is the only way.’”

The extremist group is named after “Turtle Island,” an Indigenous term, particularly among the Anishinaabe and Haudenosaunee, for the continent of North America. It stems from tales about the continent being built on a giant turtle’s back.

That name, which predates the US, dovetails with the extremist group’s goals of eliminating America, which it feels is illegitimate.

Left-wing activist groups such as Black Lives Matter have appropriated the term as well, and it is often used as a means of countering the “colonial” names for the US and Canada.

TILF has taken that concept to the extreme, while mixing a push for “decolonisation” of North America and of Israel.

“Decolonization” means genocide of white people.

Zimbabwe is Exhibit A.

I, too, believe that the colonists (Fakestinians) will mostly get themselves out, or get themselves outed, from Israel. And quite possibly pretty soon, too.

Their terrorism and savage butchery of innocent human beings is inconsistant with living in any civilized society.

This seems overwhelming. The Dems let in millions who actively hate this country, meanwhile, the public schools indoctrinate to hate America.

Not a matter of if, but when a devastating attack occurs.

A Pagan Cult who is a branch of Antifa. They worship the Solar Turtle which carried the sun on its back around the earth or vice versa.

Just another virtue signal cult that wants to terrorize America.

Turtle Heads.

Cosplay for the ugly, married to politics for the retarded, and wrapped in "indigenous" Arabic.....

The turtle carried a flat Earth on its back.

I wonder if these folks are flat Earthers as well—maybe they will roll that out later.

If you listen to Clayton Morris and wife, Tucker Carlson, and other talking heads, the Jews are behind all of these Islamic attacks on Jews. Their logic and reasoning are irreproachable. /s

Time to outlaw Hot Pockets.

How funny. The local CBS "news" folks were calling them an "anti-government" group, trying to make it sound like they were MAGA.

The media is truly execrable.

"...disturbing slogans such as “Death to America” on social media..." Why in hell is that disturbing? Most all of islamists have been screeching that for centuries.

...And many of them have been here for decades.

You think those rags would get hot. But I suppose it keeps their temps regulated, what with all of the air between their ears.
