Voices For Leaderless Resistance
William Pierce showing why only Lone Wolfism
will work at this present time:
"I am assuming that just one person or
a very small group of people has been preparing and mailing all of the
anthrax letters, and he not only has spooked the whole country, but
he also has done hundreds of millions of dollars worth of damage by
causing postal centers, government offices, and business and industrial
facilities to be shut down for weeks at a time for decontamination operations.
And, despite an enormous effort by the FBI and other secret police agencies,
he hasn't been caught. He can do it again whenever he wants. Or if not
him, anyone else with a little training in microbiology." - Pierce

I just finished watching a tape of last
month's "Domestic Terrorist Policy Summit" and I have a few observations
that I'd like to share with you.
These C-Span covered shows can, if watched correctly, give out perhaps
more information than intended. I listen to both what is said and what
is implied.
The first speaker, John McGaw (Yeah, the
same name that used to head the ATF) is currently wearing the title
of "Acting Deputy Director of the Federal Emergency Management Agency
(FEMA). He continually stressed the need for "co-operation with all
state and local agencies", which tells us that there isn't much of that
going on now. He constantly stressed the need for "a central, integrated,
national plan" and said that federal law enforcement was more prepared
to deal with chemical terrorism than biological terrorism, but that
chemical was far more widespread. He also touched briefly on explosives,
fire and cyber-terrorism.
The next speaker was Rep Saxby Chambles,
R-GA, who stressed that congress takes the issue of domestic terrorism
very seriously. He stated a list of all the bombing incidents of the
past few years and said "We better take it seriously". He feels that
inducing panic is as much of a goal as killing people, and admitted
that when he first heard of the foot and mouth disease he thought of
bio-terrorism. He lamented that terrorists are "much more sophisticated
than ever", i.e. computers, weapons of mass destruction, etc. Perhaps
in anticipation of introduction more laws to restrict freedom he emphasized
that intelligence gathering is a great tool of prevention.
But he also candidly admitted that an act of terrorism can't be stopped:
"In spite of being as prepared as we can be, we can't be prepared for
a Timothy McVeigh to come out of nowhere and do what they did in Oklahoma
City.
When discussing cyber-terrorism, he stated that the government doesn't
have many experts, since the big money in technology is in the private
sector. But he knows that it is a critical threat "that we have to deal
with". He finished by stating that it is a question of when, not if,
terrorism comes home to the U.S.
Next up was Dale Watson, FBI Counter-Terrorism
Division Assistant Director. After the usually FBI drivel about how
protest is fine and is covered by the first amendment, he went on to
discuss the current state of affairs. The Animal Liberation Front and
the Environmental Liberation Front were mentioned, and he stated correctly
that membership in the militia's was down. Then came a statement that
should be music to any revolutionary's ears:
"However, we do see the leaderless resistance
person who...is not really a true member or leader....of any specific
organization.
"But what we have here on the leaderless resistance side is an individual
who attends meetings....really don't attach with that group and then
go out and do things and acts unilaterally. Those are the most dangerous
for law enforcement to try to figure out who those individuals are.
If they don't talk outside their group, it's very difficult to trip
over these individuals. So, it's very important to realize that."
As I was watching this, I couldn't help
but wonder what was is so difficult to understand about that to the
folks who condemn leaderless resistance. This, folks, is straight from
the horse's mouth! He then gave some hypothetical examples of cyber-terrorism,
and talked about anthrax, chemical and biological agents, and a cyber-attack
on America's transportation infrastructure.
Things finished up with the Attorney General
himself, John Ashcroft, mouthing cliches and platitudes like "Terrorism
is a crime" and "cowardly attacks". Last was a speaker from the Defense
Department who discussed the military's role in counter-terrorism.
From my position, it seems like the stakes
are getting higher and higher. The iron heel representatives either
can't or won't associate their policies with the coming storm, so let's
prepare ourselves for coming attractions! This is WAR!
