The first thing that came to mind was when the Clinton Administration had dubed Free Republic as a hate group.

Further, the militia has a very important role to play in Homeland Security and should not be attacked or disbanded again!

A right-wing conspiracy is wild speculation, and a serious misjudgement of the the FBI analyst. For the sake of argument the left could equally be blamed, however I don't see this, from either side!

The country is together like never before!

The truth is we are infiltrated by immigrants with loyalties to foreign governments.

They are the sleepers who have been active for years in planning.

If these reports are true, the FBI is going down the wrong road, because they are so far behind these guys (years), and political correctness is blinding their objectivity to perform analysis!

I've lost all confidence in the FBI. I hoped things would change after Clinton left. This is the first big challenge for the new director. So far, he is not showing that he is up to the job.

[IC Ken]

I haven't trusted the FBI since 1980's. They have become to Politicalized

[Georgia_JimD]

Yeah right??!! It's the VRWC fault Slick Hillie got booed in NYC too. The anthrax attacker himself was in the audience that night and started the crowd going. Tell Billyboy to crawl back under his rock!

[newzjunkey]

I've been struggling for reasoning that extremist left/right-wing (hate) groups would seek to mask itself with the appearance of being linked to Arab-extremists responsible for the 9/11 hijackings.

What would this do? Would they be trying to make us even more pro-Israel? Would they be trying to undermine the country because of bitterness regarding ongoing fossil fuel usage? Are they pro-globalism and need America to 'fall' so that era can be ushered in?

All of the reasons I came up with seemed as thin as the plots of most TV shows. Or as sensible as something heard on Art Bell during a full moon.

I think the tone of the article is a bit of a mistake...referring to "Clintonization" makes the writer seem partisan. That said, you're right about the "sleepers"...they're called that because they live here! It may be a domestic strain of anthrax, from a U.S. source, but, find the personnel, and follow the money (bet it's not the N.R.A., the "V.R.W.C.", etc...!)

[Ymani Cricket]

Well, well, that didn't take long. So Free Republic was clasified as a "hate" group eh? Hating corruption must qualify for a "hate" group, I guess. Lets just expand the powers of government some more, yeah, thats the answer.

[EaglesUpForever]

I don't buy the OKC story any more. I think the FBI under Clinton adopted a policy of "protecting" the public from what was known middle eastern terrorism.

And this is more such "protection". I just don't think there is or ever has been a "right wing hate group" that would send anthrax letters praising Allah.

Bush has to decide if he is going to differentiate himself from Clinton.

How many domestic, right wing terrorists trained to fly within 1 mile of the American Media building in Florida?!

How many right wing terrorists rented their apartments from the wife of the owner of that American Media building?

How many right wing terrorists subscribed to one of the tabloids printed by the workers in the American Media building in Florida?

How many right wing terrorists would be upset that an American Media tabloid ran a story about Osama Bin Laden getting dumped by his American girlfriend?

How many right wing terrorists have access to weapons-grade anthrax?

How many right wing terrorists knew to have their anthrax letters ready to send in the time around 9/11?

How many domestic, right wing terrorists would know or care enough to send an anthrax letter to a bank in Pakistan?

This "domestic" angle makes no sense. All of the available evidence points to foreign terrorists, not domestics.

Further, the militia has a very important role to play in Homeland Security and should not be attacked or disbanded again!

The government does not have the power or the right to shut down the Militia. It is Constitutionally protected.

If some Lunatic hiding behind the name "Militia" is responsible for this, at a time like this, I want him dead, as painfully as possible. He probably needs a few episodes of Dengue fever.

It's because firemen and policemen and others who listen to talk radio (i.e. "Right Wing Hate Groups") boo Hillary Clinton.

Lets see the firemen show up at Yankee Stadium for the World Series (crowd will cheer)
Lets see the policemen show up at Yankee Stadium for the World Series (crowd will cheer)

Let's see George Pataki show up at Yankee Stadium (crowd will cheer)
Lets see Rudi Giuliani show up at Yankee Stadium, wearing the NY baseball cap (crowd will WILDLY cheer)

And then, lets see if Hillary even shows up.

If her name is mentioned in Yankee Stadium that evening, the booos will be so loud she'll hear them, unaided, up there in Chappaqua. She doesn't have the courage, as NY Senator, to meet her constituents. Can't possibly last long in that environment.

(sorry for the Hillary rage but once I got going I couldn't stop she makes me so livid).

[horsewhispersc]

Clinton said FR was a "hate group"! ROFLMAO Nose powda got to his brain huh! LOL

[Bommer]

I honestly don't think they are going down the wrong road. think about it. Does this fit the Bin-Ladin M.O.? Heres a guy who masterminded killing 6000 people in about 2 hours, and he's going to have Anthrax sent to only Liberal media commentators. Liberal head of the Senate and Liberal media newspapers? Please! You think Usama is a closet conservative? For an attack, this is beyond lame! I mean it's scary but no civilians have been attacked! Civil servents, and the media are the only victims so far. But look at the big picture, only 3 people have died and about 45 infected. The flu kills 1000 times that every year! A terrorist with the flu in a subway could infect far more people and possibly kill even more!

Also, but I'm sorry not all militia are US Constitutionalist Freedom Fighters. Some just like being anarchists to cause as much disruption and panic as possible. Look how many computer viruses are out there as well as hackers! These are anarchists. they don't care what damage they do, just as long as life gets thrown out of order!

[martian_22]

Once again the story line has "senior govt or FBI officials". I've only heard media sources say this for a few weeks. No quotes from named sources.

Has this been repeated enough times by the media to make it a "real" threat yet?

[Nogbad]

Clinton FBI Fingers "Right-Wing Hate Groups" in Anthrax Probe

I have the strong feeling that there is a big disinformation campaign underway.

The Administration has given out orders that nothing is to be said that would implicate Iraq in any way.

But of course I could be wrong, maybe the FBI is that stupid.

[TomGuy]

Wasn't there a report a week or so back that the terrorists' car found at the airport in Boston Sept 11-12 had traces of anthrax? Or was it just being tested?

[concerned about politics]

Either it's a "cover" for their Anti-american left wing extremists investigation, or they're blowing wind because they don't have the faintist idea of who really did it.
Only a pure idiot would tie Anti- American activities to the right wing.
This is the work of the Waco left, because their behavior tward Constitutional, law abiding citizens has proved it.
Killing the unborn, remove all guns, share the wealth (but not the workload) Sodomize the children, burn homes and labs for Mother Earth, Destroy farmers lives to save a fish, Eliminate those who believe in God and his teachings, and the anti-constitutional list goes on.
They want a Socialist country, no matter what they have to do to get it.

"Refusing to accept the earth as our sacred mother, these Christians have become a dangerous threat to the survival of humanity. They are the blight on the environment and to believe in Bible prophecy is unforgivable."

--VP Al Gore, in his book EARTH IN BALANCE, p.342

[SSN558]

Lets face it your FBI, yes your FBI the one you pay taxes to support is comprised wholly of incompetent boobs. From Ruby Ridge to the Olympic Bombing they always get their wrong man. They ceased to be a crime fighting organization many years ago, and became a tool for corrupt politicians to perscute their political enemies. The restructuring of the FBI will be a complete failure unless they purge the Clinton era managers and transfer them to positions of animal control officer.

[Clinton's a rapist]

One hopes this "militia" nonsense is just a ruse, but the scary thing is that, with the FBI's track record, who can say for sure?

[Texbob]

Yeah! The vast right wing forced Clinton to get blow jobs in the oval office on company time, so that makes them powerful people.
