The Biggest U.S. Anti-Terrorist Success the Corporate Media Doesn’t Want You to Know About

Devilstower at dailykos calls attention to Alex Koppelman's report in Salon on Demetrius "Van" Crocker, "a would-be bomber who was known to belong to a terrorist organization, who idolized the mastermind behind a previous terrorist attack in the US, and who plotted to use chemical weapons or a dirty bomb to kill thousands. A terrorist who plotted attacks on a federal courthouse and even on Washington D. C." And why haven't you heard of this guy and his November 28 sentence to 30 years in prison? Crocker is a member of the neo-Nazi National Socialist Movement. The terrorist mastermind he admired was Timothy McVeigh. And the people he most wanted to kill were the black population of nearby Jackson, Tennessee. Could it just maybe be that a white supremacist targeting an entire city of dark-skinned people is considered insufficiently newsworthy by the big corporate "news" providers?
