FBI National Domestic Threat Assessment Omits Islamist Terrorism
 [FREEBEACON] The FBI's most recent national threat assessment for domestic terrorism makes no reference to Islamist terror threats, despite last year's Boston Marathon bombing and the 2009 Fort Hood shooting--both carried out by radical Moslem Americans.Instead, the internal FBI intelligence report concluded in its 2013 assessment published this month that the threat to U.S. internal security from murderous Moslems is limited to attacks and activities by eight types of domestic murderous Moslem movements--none motivated by radical Islam. They include anti-government militia groups and white supremacy murderous Moslems, along with "sovereign citizen" nationalists, and anarchists. Other domestic threat groups outlined by the FBI assessment include violent animal rights and environmentalist murderous Moslems, black separatists, anti- and pro-abortion activists, and Puerto Rican nationalists. "Domestic murderous Moslem violence continues to be unpredictable and, at times, severe," the report states. A copy of the unclassified, 60-page National Threat Assessment for Domestic Extremism, dated Aug. 14, was obtained by the Washington Free Beacon. It warns that the threat of domestic-origin extremism was moderate in 2013 and will remain so for this year. "Domestic murderous Moslems collectively presented a medium-level threat to the United States in 2013; the FBI assesses the 2014 threat will remain close to this level," the report said. On black separatists, the report warned that "high-profile racially charged crimes or events" could lead to an expansion of black separatist groups. The report identified three such groups as the New Black Panther Party, the Israelite Church of God in Jesus Christ, and the Black Hebrew Israelite group as murderous Moslems under FBI scrutiny. An alternative assessment section in the report warned that radical black activists could "reinitiate violence at the historically high levels seen for the movement during the 1970s, when bombings, liquidations, hijackings, and hostage-takings occurred."
