Ah white supremacists MIGHT be involved

[nadinbrzezinski]

in this lovely bomb... to Coeur d'Alene Idaho.

So anybody still think this lovely device has anything to do with AQ? It is pretty clear to me, that this is not just INTERNAL... but very much an ESCALATION...

Nor is the device a beginners device.

Thanks for the spelling heads up

1. Cardilane Idaho?

Sounds like a movie star's baby name. Is there a link I should follow?

[nadinbrzezinski]

5. Rachel covering it right now

[Obamanaut]

11. We're not all watching Rachel right now. More info might have been helpful. nt

[nadinbrzezinski]

15. Here

for the most part, you'd think this would be a huge media story... see NYC and Amateur hour, but for the most part it is limited to Rachel's yeoman work, with some of the rest of MSNBC.

They are white... so violates the storyline.

32. beautiful place, has the largest xmas tree in the world and is a

place a lot of extremists like. Poor town.

[Codeine]

[Wednesdays]

26. No, it's the OTHER Cardilane/Coeur d'Alene. LOL.

3. pssst..... I think you mean Coeur d'Alene, Idaho

and yes, that area of Idaho has plenty of hate groups, unfortunately, as Idaho is beautiful

[nadinbrzezinski]

7. I am just transcribing

you mean they are using a FRENCH name?

Oh the irony.

[hlthe2b]

18. Yup... French trappers settled the area.

[Hello_Kitty]

10. Idaho is absolutely gorgeous and full of really nice people

But yeah, lots of hate groups.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

4. Coeur d'Alene has long been a hotbed of white supremacist activities.

9. Good grief, i am out of touch for a couple hours and another terrorist

act from the right?
Uh, the frequency is a real concern.

[nadinbrzezinski]

12. This was on MLK day

it did not go off, thankfully... city workers found an abandoned backpack with wires.

They did what they are told repeatedly. the parade was re-routed and the Bomb Squad got the REAL DEAL.

[rurallib]

19. I thought that was Spokane - One in idaho, also?

[nadinbrzezinski]

22. Nah it is the same thing

sorry for the clarity, or lack off. They are looking at those groups, which are about 20 miles from Spokane.

[Ozymanithrax]

13. Here is a related story, form thearea...

FBI: MLK Parade Backpack Bomb Linked to Aryan Nations. People of Spokane: We Doubt It.
Did not catch Rachel's story. The kids are awake.

[slackmaster]

30. Yeah, I thought the issue of white supremacists was solved back in the 1920s

Who'dve thunkit?

[Warren DeMontague]

31. I thought it was solved

by them all moving to Idaho.

[seabeyond]

20. we had a conversation at dinner. spokanne, next to idaho, white supre/militia.

yup

[lonestarnot]

21. Figures.

[GoCubsGo]

23. It was my first thought when I heard about it.

Lots of 'em in that neck of the world.

[nadinbrzezinski]

24. It was mine as well

why I went immediately THIS IS INTERNAL.

And the media is MOSTLY ignoring it. (MSNBC has done some coverage, after that... chirp)

[defendandprotect]

25. Violence is the only way the right wing can rise -- expect more of it --

Think that's one of the main motivations behind the creation of the T-BAGGERS

to introduce more right wing violence -- and violent rhetoric -- until Americans

begin to think of it as normal!

It's more of the Nazi pattern -- the right wing never gives up its patterns!!

Its old tools -- because they work!

[starroute]

27. There's a thread Nadin started two years ago that's worth reviewing

It's headed "Talk of violent revolution..." and talks about the simmering right-wing impulses towards civil war following Obama's election. It's even more true now than it was then.
