Jan Schakowsky & Co. Go to Bat for Radical Extremists Raided by FBI rebelpundit May 16, 2011 News 7 Comments Over the past month and a half, seven members of Congress–six of whom are members of the Democratic Socialists of America–have written letters to U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder and President Barack Obama on behalf of radical extremists whose homes were raided by the FBI last September. The raids took place in Chicago and Minnesota, where 23 individuals were targeted by the FBI’s Joint Terrorism Task Force. The individuals are anti-war and international solidarity activists with possible links to funding Hamas and other terrorist organizations, including Hezbollah and the Marxist F.A.R.C. (Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia). U.S. Representatives and Democratic Socialists of America members; Jan Schakowsky (D-IL), Luis Gutierrez (D-IL), John Conyers (D-MI), Danny Davis (D-IL), Jim McDermott (D-WA), and Keith Ellison (D-MN) have all written letters to either President Obama or Eric Holder regarding the status of the ongoing investigation. Representative David Price (D-NC) has also joined these socialist members of Congress on behalf of the radical extremists. The letters refer to the anti-war and social-justice activists as “peaceful.” However you can see recent footage of Andy Thayer, one of these so-called “peaceful activists” targeted in the investigation, in the video below. Just this past March, Thayer called for revolution at an anti-war/pro-socialist revolution protest in Chicago. Unfortunately in a time when most Americans struggle to find any adequate representation from their elected members of Congress, these radicals seem to have just the right representatives to turn to. Thayer: “Egypt showed us that getting on the streets was a prelude to the strike action that actually turned over Mubarak, and hopefully we’ll be seeing that kind of correct action and strike action here in Chicago and up in Madison.” Cross Posted at: BigGovernment 7 Responses pst314 May 17, 2011 “The individuals are anti-war and international solidarity activists…” I think you’re missing some capitalization: “International Solidarity Movement”, a Palestinian-terrorist supporting group here in the US. Reply Old MS Miller May 17, 2011 Every country these Muslim radicals go to they try to turn them into acceping their vicious cult. The most deadly rule from their hate filled koran is that they need to dirty every country by murdering infidels, Christians and they must do so by stealth. Sort of like cockroaches.
