It's Not Them...It's US

This seems to be a "breaking news" item. The video just went up on CrooksandLiars...
A significant break in Martin Luther King Day backpack bomb investigation in Spokane occurred this morning when an FBI SWAT team executed a search warrant and reportedly made one arrest Wednesday morning in the small northeastern Washington town of Addy.FBI officials weren’t immediately available for comment, but indicated the name of the suspect would be forthcoming in a news release.
And here is the news release:

Mark Potok of the Southern Poverty Law Center tells The Associated Press that Kevin Harpham was a member of the white supremacist National Alliance in 2004. But Potok says his organization doesn't know when he joined or if he has left the group.

The 36-year-old Harpham is from the Colville area in northeastern Washington. He was arrested Wednesday and is expected to appear in federal court at 3:30 p.m. on charges of trying to use a weapon of mass destruction and possession of an unregistered explosive device.

The case has been investigated as a case of domestic terrorism.

Addy is a community in Stevens County, in the northeastern corner of Washington state, bordering Canada. The county has long been a hotbed of extremist and Christian Identity activity.

The arrest was being reported by Spokane media, including The Spokesman-Review and KXLY-TV.

Earlier, this year, I published a list of incidents, which under any other circumstances would be classified as domestic terrorism. The fact that the serial aspect of this violence is being down played in the press as "isolated incidents" is pretty pathetic in light of the Islamophobic Hearings on the supposed threat of Islamic Terrorism being held in Congress  by Peter King.

Yes, in the 10 years since 9/11, we have seen a few incidents of thwarted attempts at "Islamic" violence in America and many of those have been seriously compromised by the specter of entrapment and set ups by the FBI. We've ad neo con Ghouls like ex vice president Cheney actually drool over the possibility that there could be domestic Islamic terrorist acts, because in his mind, it would keep us on our toes. It would fuel our hatred.

But, the problem isn't them. It's us.

We Have Met The Enemy And They Is Us....part 2

I was in the United States hooked into network news when the Fort Hood massacre occurred. The massive, non stop coverage that included the minute by minute speculation by the various talking heads of the entire spectral range of opinion was over whelming.

The spin from this event is still dominating the right wing nut thought patterns. The backlash threatens to affect the lives of any middle eastern member of the American Military Services and the paranoiac reation will further poison the lives of any American citizen or legal resident of Middle eastern Origin.

This is the manipulation of paranoia in America. This is how the events are used to control you! To influence your opinions....This is the effect of dollar driven political sensationalistic pseudo journalism.

The picture above is of an American Citizen named Mark Campano who resides in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio. Last week, Mr. Campano accidentally injured himself in one of his  frequent explosions in his apartment in Cuyahoga Falls, which is a suburb of Cleveland. Did you hear of this in your newpapress or on the network news? Why wasn't this story of any interest? Mr. Campano is a white, right wing extremist, like The Neo Nazi in Belfast, Maine, James Cummings who I wrote about in a Post from march of this year, We Have met The Enemy And They Is Us. Mr Cummings was actively engaged in constructing a dirty nuclear device to  to bring down the Obama Administration. Luckily, Cummings, an eccentric, secretive millionaire was shot by his abused wife. The ensuing investigation uncovered the real danger which Cummings was about to unleash on America.

Here's the story from the local Cuyahoga Falls newspaper:

CUYAHOGA FALLS, Ohio – Following a pipe bomb explosion Monday night, police and federal law enforcement officials are trying to figure why a Center Avenue man turned his apartment into a bomb factory.

Police said no charges have been filed against Mark Campano, 56. Police found 30 completed pipe bombs in his apartment along with components to make more, plus 17 guns and hundreds of rounds of ammunition.

Campano is in an Akron hospital with injuries received when one of the bombs exploded.

As police and federal authorities puzzle over Campano's past and what he planned to do with the bombs, a former neighbor said Campano often railed against the government.

Barbara Vachon lived next door to Campano at the Center Park Place Apartments for several years and said he was a big reason she moved.

"He was always trying to get me and another neighbor to listen to anti-government tapes and watch anti-government videos," said Vachon. "I would never watch them. He was some kind of radical, and he didn't believe in the government."

She said there were other warnings.

"There were a few times I heard minor explosions from outside the apartment building, and he would scream that he had hurt himself," she said. "I never knew what he was up to."

Vachon said Campano seemed to be most active at night.

"There was a steady stream of creepy visitors going in and out of his apartment," she said.

The Bureau of Alcohol Tobacco and Firearms is also investigating the case.

Of course, if this had been a Muslim extremist caught with such an arsenal, we'd be getting talk-show panels on Hannity featuring Michelle Malkin ranting at length about the threat of Islamic jihad, blah blah blah. Not to mention chatty discussion on Fox and Friends and Morning Joe.

But instead, because he's just a white anti-government extremist, hey, let's just give it a big shrug.

We Have Met The Enemy And They Is Us....

After 9 years of an abusive relationship, Amber Cummings of Belfast, Maine shot her husband, James G. Cummings in the culmination of an escalating incident of domestic violence in a home filled with guns, a variety of weapons and a collection of Nazi Memorabilia. When homicide police came after Amber reported what she had done, they searched the house. The neighbors say that the house was searched for a week and during the search, on December 9,2009, The FBI became involved as they made the horrifying discovery that James G. Cummings had been constructing a dirty nuclear device and apparently intended to use it.

The material found by the FBI, in the pleasant house on a quiet street in Belfast, along with literature with directions for the construction were as follows:
four 1 gallon containers of 35% hydrogen peroxide,
uranium, thorium, lithium metal, thermite, aluminum powder, beryllium, boron, black iron oxide and magnesium ribbon.

The uranium was bought from online from a United States Company, but it was not identified in the report. The peroxide and the other ingredients are the explosive materials and the ingredients needed to amplifyy the effects of the bomb.

According to his wife, Cummings had become very upset with the election of Barack Obama and decided to do something about it.
He was independantly wealthy, the benefactor of a family trust fund and was linked to white supremicist groups. He claimed to have pieces from Adolph Hitlers personal dinner ware in his huge collection of Nazi memorabilia.
According to sources, he had recently officially become a member of The National Socialist Movement.

As of last night, none of this has been officially commented on and the Department of Homeland Security refused to take calls from Maine news media. This information was supplied by the Bangor Daily News and Wikileaks.
As the brilliant creator of the long gone comic strip Pogo, Walt Kelley said, "We Have Met The Enemy and They Is Us!"
