DHS: The Biggest Terror Threat Is 'Right-Wing Extremists' – PJ Media

In yet another story purporting to confirm the left’s view of the world, Jana Winter reported in Yahoo News Friday that “the U.S. government is acknowledging for the first time that right-wing extremists were responsible for the majority of fatal domestic terrorist attacks last year, according to an internal report circulated by the Department of Homeland Security last week.”

I can’t think of a single fatal domestic right-wing terrorist attack in 2020 that made the news. In fact, I can’t think of a single non-fatal one that made the news.

Unless, of course, you think Antifa and BLM are right-wing. I remember lots of terrorist incidents from the two of them, both fatal and non-fatal.

Also conspicuously lacking in this report were definitions of the key terms. What does the government define as “right-wing”? What do they classify as “left-wing”? What do they define as a “terrorist attack”? The Joint Regional Intelligence Center report defines “terrorist incidents” as “violence motivated by political or religious conviction,” but offers no definitions of the other terms.

It does, however, attempt to excuse “left-wing” violence, claiming that that there was a “rarity of left-wing extremist attacks[.]”

A “rarity of left-wing extremist attacks”. I must have dreamed the riots that went on all last summer. I guess they didn’t happen. I guess Antifa didn’t take over a block in Portland.

This is very frightening. The government wants to make it illegal to be a conservative.
