For years I have tried to warn people about the heating up of trouble spots "south of the border" ( Central & South America ), the inter-linking of terrorist groups there and elsewhere, and the Cuban/left-wing ties to all this.
Here are links, pulled from other links & posts, to give you a heads-up on "what the media doesn't want to talk about...."

While we still will probably never convert the "true believers" who still worship the clinton crew, there are a lot of less radicalized citizens out there who just have never been exposed to a lot of the data we here have seen. Here's a good place to start them ( and a Tip O' the Hat to ChaseR who first suggested this approach to winning new converts )--

The US has used every means at its disposal, including the army, air force, navy, marines, coast guard, FBI, Drug Enforcement Agency, CIA and others to repress the struggle for justice and self-determination.

Should we judge people by the company they keep?
"Officials at the Senate judicial committee and the Department of Justice are also looking at the possibility of creating a military tribunal to judge those involved in terrorist attacks behind closed doors, with limited access to defence. Overall, the new legislation is one of the most sweeping assaults on liberties in the last 50 years. It is unlikely to make us more secure; it is certain to make us less free."
Terrorist organizations and their sponsors from virtually every part of the world have been building their support apparatuses in our country for years. At the same time, many "domestic" terrorist groups — U.S. citizens who, invariably, are supported by foreign powers — have also been honeycombing America with their subversive networks. For a period of nearly eight years during the 1970s and 1980s, this reporter watched firsthand, in an undercover capacity, as these networks were being assembled. I was present at many meetings featuring members of certified terrorist groups such as the Palestinian PLO and PFLP, the Irish Republican Army, the El Salvadoran FMLN, the Nicaraguan Sandinistas (FSLN), the Puerto Rican FALN, the Black Panthers, the African National Congress, and others.
There is a lot "flying under the radar" South of the Border, and much more interconnectivity among the terror/anarchist/revolutionary groups than most people ever realize. It really is
