Government Foils Skinhead Plot to Assassinate Obama [court records unsealed just before elections]

Skinheads planned to kill Obama and 102 others in Tennessee.

Federal agents have disrupted a plot to assassinate Barack Obama and shoot or decapitate dozens of black students in Tennessee, the ATF said Monday. 

In court records unsealed Monday, federal agents said they disrupted plans to rob a gun store and target a predominantly African-American high school by two neo-Nazi skinheads. Agents said the skinheads did not identify the school by name. 

A source in the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives told FOX News that the two skinheads, who were picked up in Crockett County, Tenn., were plotting to shoot 88 black students and decapitate 14 others described as non-whites. The source said officials believe the suspects were planning to attempt an assassination against Obama. 

The numbers 88 and 14 are symbolic in the white supremacist community. 

But officials could not describe how advanced or credible the plot was, nor could they say if they had contacted the Obama campaign. 

Jim Cavanaugh, special agent in charge of the Nashville field office for the ATF, said the suspects also sought to go on a national killing spree, with Obama as its final target.

I have no clue why you decided to attack me for my post

Apparently YOU are the only one who didn’t understand it.

Two years here is hardly a N00b.

“Which heads of state and high ranking officials are you referring to?”

Leaders in Lebanon, Pakistan, India, for example; former Soviet or Russian leaders, especially those “in exile”. Incidents like Hinckley and Reagan are aberrations.

Ahh, gotcha. “Do unto others what they’d do to you.”>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Not really. More like Avoid idiot compassion in exercising compassion.

I am convinced that America would be far better off without politicians like Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi. If they were to disappear today, it would prevent a tremendous amount of future suffering by millions of people, not just in America, but around the world.

That is my context. I do not have yours. Pelosi and Reid are representatives of Liberal Fascism,described accurately by Jonah Goldberg in his new book ( Which is not polemic, a weighty academic work , and censored by Dems: Liberal Fascism: The Secret History of America's Left, From Mussolini to the Politics of Meaning.).

Of course most Americans think its business as usual with the likes of Pelosi and Reid. Its not. Check out PUMApac.org. The Dem party no longer exists. We have a Nationalist Socialist Party which will cause so much violence in America, that we will be fortunate to survive as a nation.

This "plot" could only succeed as a marxist-media story.

Here's an excerpt from a Financial Times Article on the same subject which gives a good idea of the actual threat posed by these burglars who " possessed a number of weapons, including a sawn-off shotgun.":

"According to the criminal complaint, the two men started hatching ideas for the killing spree over the internet a month before their arrest last week. They said they intended to dress in white tuxedos and top hats, and then speed their vehicle towards Mr Obama as they attempted to shoot him. They added that the understood that they would probably be killed in the process, but that they were willing to die."

Financial Times

"While the Secret Service declined to comment on the ongoing investigation, one person familiar with the probe said the agency was 'unaware of a formal plan' to assassinate Mr Obama. He said the agency doubted whether the two men had the ability to carry out such a plan."

In spite of the absurdity of the 'plot,' the marxist-media will be flooded with this story so as to rally support for Barak Hussein Obama who can then magnanimously continue his campaign in spite of such diabolical red herring threats.

Here’s the problem I have with this piece of garbage:
Obummer and his minions are liars and I put NOTHING past them. The polls are wrong- they ALWAYS are, and Obummer knows it’s a real possibility that he could lose.
The Skinheads, NeoNazis, Aryan Nation, et al, are ANARCHISTS and hate BOTH sides- why bother? They are scapegoats in this piece of whimsy.
The only group related at ALL is the KKK which is, and has ALWAYS been, a democrat group. Want to know why Obummer didn’t choose THEM- a traditionally useful “scare-the-blacks” group as his bogeyman? Because they gave a nice fat contribution to his campaign- THAT’s why.

Nowadays heads of state and other high-ranking officials are taken out by professionals.

Which heads of state and high ranking officials are you referring to?

Leaders in Lebanon, Pakistan, India, for example; former Soviet or Russian leaders... .

Which of these leaders were taken out by professional assassins recently? You might be confusing "professional" assassins, with fanatical religious terrorist types.

I would note the recent assassination of Bhutto was hardly a hit by a professional assassin, due to the fact a "professional" in that sense, would not have blown himself up along with many others creating a very messy scene in the process. Looking at the scene images, you can see one individual pointing a handgun. A handgun would not be the weapon of choice for a professional assassin. I would guess Bhutto was killed by extremist, terrorist, religious fanatics etc, not what one would consider a "professional" assassin.

The term "professional" would seem to suggest someone who is highly skilled, makes a very detailed plans, and surgically executes that plan with precision and gets away with it.

Incidents like Hinckley and Reagan are aberrations

Actually they're typical.

Modern notable assassins/attempted assassinations in the U.S. would include Reagan, JFK, Wallace, Martin Luther King, John Lennon, Robert Kennedy etc...None of which were killed by what one would consider "professional" assassins.

Even going way back to Lincoln, the assassin was hardly a professional.

You must be kidding me. Bhutto’s assassination was set up by Paki Intelligence, using shills. JFK was NOT killed by Lee Harvey Oswald (and if you believe the Warren Commission I have a bridge in Brooklyn to sell you); the JFK hit was a professional action. The Lebanese PM was taken out by Syrian Intelligence. The Mossad regularly takes out high-profile targets; so did the KGB. Pope John Paul II’s would-be assassin was working for Bulgarian Intelligence.

Sure there are random nuts who once in a while try to kill someone powerful or famous. But the serious hits are almost always done by professionals.

Bhutto’s assassination was set up by Paki Intelligence, using shills.

Could you provide a link for those arrested for that assassination? The fact is no one was ever charged. In addition, it is believed those responsible blew themselves to pieces. Again, not hardly what a "professional assassin would do. Fanatical terrorist? Yeah, professional assassin? No.

JFK was NOT killed by Lee Harvey Oswald

Yes he was.

The Lebanese PM was taken out by Syrian Intelligence.

The Lebanese Prime Minister was killed along with about a dozen others, and it is believed, the young "suicide bomber" was among the dead. Again, not what one would consider a "professional assassin. Again, you seem to be confusing, "professional" assassins, with common terrorist and religious fanatics that will generally blow themselves up in the process.

The Mossad regularly takes out high-profile targets

Uh, the Mossad is the Israeli intelligence agency, much like the CIA. It's not an organization for "professional assassins. Most of their work is counter intelligence.

Sure there are random nuts who once in a while try to kill someone powerful or famous. But the serious hits are almost always done by professionals.

Wrong. You are again confusing Mid Eastern terrorism and religious extremist, with professional "hit men".

Professional "hit men" are not known to blow themselves to pieces on a one time job.

Incidents like Hinckley and Reagan are aberrations

Actually they're typical.

Modern notable assassins/attempted assassinations in the U.S. would include Reagan, JFK, Wallace, Martin Luther King, John Lennon, Robert Kennedy etc...None of which were killed by what one would consider "professional" assassins.

Even going way back to Lincoln, the assassin was hardly a professional.

You have to understand, a terrorist, a fanatical religious zealot willing to die for their "cause" are not professional "hit men".

BTW, you say Oswald didn't kill Kennedy? Who did?

BTW, when I said a a handgun would not be the weapon of choice for a professional assassin, I was referring to a political type assassinations, where as a "professional" would desire to escape and be able to spend his money. These types of professional political "hits" rarely occur.

Lower level assassinations, or murder for hire, contract killing etc, of spouses, business partners, DA's etc are hit's where a .22 handgun is often used.
