    Bigfella, it might not seem like it, but I do appreciate your posts. Alcohol might had something to do with my post, so I do apologize.

    But I do want to elaborate why I was stunned when you mentioned white supremacists. Ok, White Supremacists are bad, yes they're very racist, but from my understanding I can say that they're the most patriotic of them all. They think America belongs to them, so why on earth would they bring harm to their mother land? That's what I was thinking when you brought it up, that's all.
    Mobbme,

    Thanks. As long as you can understand why I was upset then I can accept that it was unintentional. As I mentioned to another board member, drinking & posting don't mix.

    As for the various shades of White Supremacists shading over into some of the extremist militia elements, their 'patriotism' is so narrowly defined & often so warped that it most definately allows them to attack America. I give you Oklahoma city.

    As I said earlier, the main reason I considered them as a possible alternative to AQ was logistics - like AQ they could muster the required numbers in America & support them. As I mentioned, the lack of any history of suicide bombing & likelihood of heavy penetration by the FBI of any group large enough to co-ordinate something like this mitigated heavily against it.

    True, although it must be said that the Oklahoma City bombing was targeted against a federal government building. A significant proportion of white supremacists and their ilk would scruple to attack targets not directly associated with government, primarily federal government. I would say a majority, although this is just a guess.
    I enjoy being wrong too much to change my mind.

    Mobbme, I'll earn the privilege of being taken seriously by posting intelligently, thank you much. Will most definitely not expect to being taken seriously after posting drunkenly and posting about things I have not taken the time to educate myself about. Fairly certain I read somewhere on this site that you should educate yourself about topics before posting.

    Parihaka, thank you.

    Not trying to tie Aryans into 9/11 by any means, but interesting that Earl Turner's death comes after flying a nuclear weapon-armed plane into the Pentagon.
