    Homeland Securtiy Right Wing Extremism report sources?

    I received this and don't quite know what to make of it. Has anyone else received anything similar?

    Has Homeland Security released any of the soouce information for the memo identifying Right Wing Extremists?

    According to this , they used almost exclusively, papers composed by the SPLC and the ADL.

    This would explain in my opinion. why conservative and religeous groups were identified as potential terrorists, while anarchists groups, such as La Voz de Aztlan, Blac Panthers, MS-13, 18th Street Gang, etc were not.

    Any expert folks here that can help me out?


    That stupid Homeland Security report on "Right-wing Extremism" was written with sources drawn primarily from the Southern "Poverty" Law Center and the Anti-Defamation League. Here are the pdf's of a three page response to a FOIA request:

    Page 2: http://www.mediafire.com/?zmdqzqnizn1
    Page 3: http://www.mediafire.com/?gtguhjoz2qz

    I transcribe them below because I had a devil of a time getting past the (expletive deleted) pop-ups and other crap on Mediafire.

    Re: DHS/OS/PRIV (identifier redacted)

    Dear Mr. (Redacted):

    This is the final response to your Freedom of Information act (FOIA) request to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), dated April 16, 2009, and received in this office April 22, 2009. You requested records relating to the DHS Office of Intelligence and Analysis assessment titled, "Right-wing Extremism: Current Economic and political Climate Fueling Resurgence in Radicalization and Recruitment," to include the following:


    1. With respect to "(U//FOUO) DHS?I&A notes that prominent civil rights organizations have observed an increase in anti-Hispanic crimes over the past five years," found on page 5 of 9 of the document, you requested the following:


    ** Names of the cited "prominent civil rights organizations," as well as any references used to create the document or this citation within the document.


    2. With respect to "(U) In April 2007, six militia members were arrested for various weapons and explosives violation. Open source reporting alleged that those arrested had discussed and conducted surveillance for a machinegun attack on Hispanics," found on page 5 of 9 of your document, you requested the following:


    ** Website links or media references to the "open-source reporting" referred to in the document, as well as any references, websites, etc. used to create this citation.


    3. With respect to "(U) A militia member in Wyoming was arrested in February 2007 after communicating his plans to travel to the Mexican border to kill immigrants crossing into the United States," found on page 5 of 9 of the document, you requested the following:


    ** Website links or media references to the "open-source reporting" referred to in the document, as well as any references, websites, etc. used to create this citation.



    A search within the Office of Intelligence and Analysis (OI&A) for records that would be responsive to your request produced a total of 127 pages, all of which are publicly avaliable. Pursuant to 5 U.S.C. ss552(a)(1) and (a)(2), DHS need not make available under the FOIA records that are published elsewhere. As the responsive documents are publicly available and you specifically requested "website links," we have not enclosed hard copies with this response.

    With respect to Item 1, the following website links are provided:

    SPLC and ADL

    Are globalist and jewish supremist organizations. They have their own agenda and we are seeing it happen in the shift toward socialism.
