DHS Investigates Alleged Antifa Protesters as Terrorists Trained in Syria
By Daniel Villarreal, Newsweek, August 3, 2020:
An intelligence report from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) states that anti-fascist activists (Antifa) are being investigated as possible terrorists with affiliations to Syria, even though no self-identified members of the loosely-affiliated Antifa protest movement have either been proven to commit any murders or carry out any terrorist attacks.
The July 14 report, entitled “The Syrian Conflict and its Nexus to the U.S.-based Antifascist Movement,” states “ANTIFA is being analyzed under the 2019 DHS Strategic Framework for Countering Terrorism and Targeted Violence,” according to a copy of the document obtained by the progressive political magazine The Nation. It received a copy from someone who previously worked on DHS intelligence.
The report details more than half a dozen people identified with various far-left causes who have personally visited Syria to fight alongside Kurdish factions. The factions include the YPG, the People’s Defense Unit; the PKK, the Kurdistan Workers’ Party; and the Peshmerga, military forces that provide security for Iraq’s autonomous Kurdistan Region. None of these organizations are currently listed by the U.S. as terrorist groups.
I’m telling y’all. The left-wing #Antifa militants who had a chance to receive armed training from the #PKK terror group in Syria for years, pose much more danger than you think now.

“There appears to be a clear connection … between ANTIFA ideology and Kurdish democratic federalism teachings and ideology,” the report stated. “(U.S. Customs and Border Protection) concern about and interest in these individuals stems from the types of skills and motivations that may have developed during their time overseas engaged in foreign conflicts.”
While the report said that Antifa and the Kurdish factions share some “Marxist, socialist, communist and anti-fascist” ideologies that are sometimes “far-left” and “utopian,” the report also concluded that, “apart from a single instance derived from open-source reporting,” there’s no evidence of centralized-foreign efforts to command Antifa-affiliated U.S. citizens once they return to the U.S. after fighting abroad.
One person named in the report, Bruce Belden, said, “I am not now nor have I ever been a member of any Antifa organization.”
Steven Aftergood, director of the Federation of American Scientists Project on Government Secrecy, told The Nation that he fears that by labeling Antifa as a foreign-supported terrorist organization, the federal government may be making it easy to subject protesters affiliated with the movement to warrantless searches and surveillance that would otherwise be illegal and unconstitutional against U.S. citizens.

ANTIFA protesters demonstrate on the University of Utah campus against an event where right wing writer and commentator Ben Shapiro is speaking on September 27, 2017 in Salt Lake City, Utah. George Frey/GettyOn July 27, President Donald Trump said that he wanted to declare Antifa as a “terrorist organization” even though they’ve never been proven to have killed anyone or carried out a terrorist attack.
A terrorist attack, according to the Patriot Act, must be “dangerous to human life” and “a violation of the criminal laws of the U.S.” in seeking to “intimidate or coerce a civilian population,” “influence the policy of a government” or “affect the conduct of a government.”
The autonomous groups that make up the Antifa movement generally oppose neo-Nazis, fascism, white supremacists, racism and other types of extreme right-wing ideology.
While some Antifa members have engaged in vandalism and physical violence, they have not yet been linked to any killings in the U.S., according to the Center for Strategic and International Studies. Other known hate groups that have committed murders in the 21st century haven’t been designated as terrorist organizations by the United States either.

Tiktok’s Parent Company Employs Chinese Communist Party Members In Its Highest Ranks
https://www.theepochtimes.com/tiktoks-parent-company-employs-ccp-members-in-its-highest-ranks_3451561.html
“More than 130 employees at ByteDance, the Chinese owner of video-sharing application TikTok, are part of a Chinese Communist Party (CCP) committee embedded in the company. Many of the employees work in management positions, an internal document reveals.
The extent of CCP membership among ByteDance management further demonstrates the company’s ties to the Chinese regime, fueling security concerns about TikTok.
By law, Chinese companies are required to set up Communist Party units within their offices to ensure that business policies and employees toe the Party line. ByteDance, founded in March 2012, set up its Party committee in October 2014.”

Portland Mayor Says Rioters Are Attempting Murder, Rioters Respond With More Riots
https://www.theepochtimes.com/riot-takes-place-in-portland-hours-after-mayor-says-rioters-are-attempting-murder_3453657.html
Rioters in Portland on Thursday tried setting a police precinct on fire for the second consecutive night… Mayor Ted Wheeler, a Democrat, held a press conference and gave his most forceful condemnation of the nightly violence, which has continued nearly nonstop since late May.
“When you commit arson with an accelerant in an attempt to burn down a building that is occupied by people that you have intentionally trapped inside, you are not demonstrating, you are attempting to commit murder,” Wheeler said.
Meanwhile, the Communist Party USA [CPUSA] has endorsed Biden and the Democrat Party

This article is fallacious and I am surprised that Pamela printed it. Notice how this Leftist propagandist can’t find terrorism in beating up reporters and conservatives, rioting against conservative speakers and smashing windows, and physically assaulting the police, and desecrating public property.
That is terrorism. That is using violence to suppress your opposition and intimidate others from speaking out, and influencing public policy through violent. We don’t know yet if they haven’t murdered people, but it would not shock me if they have. Someone like Philip Haney may have been murdered by them. Who knows?

Newsweek should be napalmed and the reporter bludgeoned unconscious and then woke up and immediately thrown out at 40,000 feet so he can wonder WTH was going on as he was falling.
“even though no self-identified members of the loosely-affiliated Antifa protest movement have either been proven to commit any murders or carry out any terrorist attacks.”
Is that the bar now? We have to wait until they kill?
Insanity that we tolerate this crap.

There is one ray of sunshine here. The ratio of US fighting men needed to put down radical muslim resistance in the Middle East, is very low. Muslims train for a one way trip, expecting to sacrifice their all for their beliefs. So if it ever does come down to a fire fight between US citizens that are muslim trained members of ANTIFA, and some component of US trained citizens in the capacity of enforcement, it is not going to end well for ANTIFA.

“Antifa movement generally oppose neo-Nazis, fascism, white supremacists, racism and other types of extreme right-wing ideology.”? Really? I see them attacking innocent people that seem unwilling or unable to defend themselves. Where WERE those neo-Nazis, fascists, white supremacists racists et al in Portland? Seattle?

The Kurds in Kurdistan have implemented aspects of Sharia law (i.e. blasphemy and heresy laws) and persecute Christians there. If you think they’re so f’ing great then why don’t you MOVE there?

Daniel from Newsweek needs to wake up, Antifa is fascist and has the black shirt group to prove it. They portray themselves as opposing facism and Nazis while acting their tactics out in the streets of America.

Newsweek Quote: The autonomous groups that make up the Antifa movement generally oppose
neo-Nazis, fascism, white supremacists, racism and other types of extreme right-wing ideology.
Well that’s a Big Lie. Goebbels level.
Antifa – aka Lefties – oppose normal people and normal stuff.
… Antifa are fascists, neo-Nazies, supremacists – many of whom are white, and they’re racist bigots …
It’s true Antifa are not right-wing, but in context “right-wing” in the way Newsweek uses it in this quote actually means
… socialists in snazzy uniforms.
Journ0liars are so full of lies their brains they don’t know what’s true …

Newsweak, National Geographic (spit) and Time magazine (spit again) have been carrying water for the Communists and f’ing muslums for decades. All the enumerated rags are a lot less about journalism than they are propaganda.

The Revolutionary Cells (a group of leftist German pigs) out of Germany assisted the f’ing muslums in hijacking an Air France flight from Paris to Tel Aviv and diverting it to Entebbe, Uganda, the IDF eventually freed nearly all the Jewish hostages (the gentile hostages were all released by their terrorist captors). I write “nearly” because one woman was sent to hospital and never seen alive again. A Japanese Communist attacked people at Lod airport. The Iranian Communists thought themselves allies of the Ayatrollah Khomeni until he had them rounded up and executed en mass. The USSR provided the f’ing muslums with all their tanks, artillery, planes, APC’s, small arms, SAM batteries and radar control sets and ammunition, bombs and shells for all of it in both the ’67’ Six Day War and the ’73’ Yom Kippur War. For some reason Communist atheists and muslums seem to be brothers in arms — at least until one or the other gains the upper hand.

Around 2015 or 16 seen a video with LA gang members fighting in SYRIA. Who paid for transporting them over there. Who gave them expense monies. How were they able to get in and out of that area of the world no questions asked. It’s already a well known fact that gang members go into the US military for training they take back to the streets. No better training than hands on training.
