  18. The designations of the 4 groups were met with skepticism among experts.

    
“They’re very peculiar,” said Blazakis, who is now a professor at Middlebury Institute & teaches about violent #extremism. “Those groups have carried out acts of vandalism. They’ve harmed individuals. But they don’t have a casualty to their name.”

  20. In November, the #State Dept announced the designations of 4 #European groups as foreign #terrorist organizations, including a militant group in Germany that calls itself #AntifaOst . 2 more were in Greece & 1 in Italy.

    Designation, which is done by the secy of state, is based on criteria that include the assessment that the group poses a direct threat to #US #NationalSecurity interests.

  24. That was followed in early June by a gathering at the US Institute of Peace to try to convince #State Dept personnel that “far-left political terrorists” were a growing threat to the country, but that event apparently was also a “dud,” acc/to Puck News. About an hour into the event, organizers sent out an email blast telling people they could still join, if they wanted, Puck reported.

  26. Analysts say it can be difficult to categorize left-wing violence.…And though there is some upswing of #PoliticalViolence in the #US, “to date left-wing violent extremism has typically been less lethal than other forms of terrorism,” said Bruce Hoffman, senior fellow for counterterrorism at the Council on Foreign Relations.

  28. #Antifa, short for “anti-fascist,” is a decentralized movement without a clear command structure or leader, reflecting a range of ideologies mostly on the political left, from anarchism to communism & everything in between. Unlike left-wing extremist groups of the 1960s & 1970s, such as Weather Underground, antifa does not issue manifestos or claim responsibility for actions.

  30. The others received prison terms of 30 to 70 years on charges such as rioting, providing support to terrorists & conspiracy to use & carry explosives. [so all #Jan6 offenders should suffer the same fate]
    
Defense attorneys called the prosecution politically motivated.

  32. That led to a criminal investigation that culminated last month in lengthy prison sentences given to several members of what prosecutors called an “antifa cell” — one defendant received 100 years — for their roles last summer in a protest outside an #ICE facility in Texas during which a police officer was shot. The person sentenced to 100 years was convicted of attempted murder.

  34. …The order was followed by the issuance of National Security Presidential Memorandum 7, which directed the #DOJ to “investigate and disrupt networks, entities & organizations that foment political violence.” The document states that Charlie Kirk’s alleged killer engraved the bullets used in the killing with “so-called ‘anti-fascist’ rhetoric.”

  35. …Some said, too, they were unsure why they had been invited. “We don’t have antifa,” said one European diplomat.

    “I don’t think we can find any reason why we would be interested in attending such an event,” said another.
    
“Our law enforcement authorities have not focused on left-wing terrorism because this is not considered a high priority threat in our country,” said a third.

  36. Elsewhere in the government, discomfort with the direction the admin is such that at meetings of #NationalSecurity ofcls from various agencies, some #intelligence analysts have declined to brief on #Antifa because they do not regard it as a serious counterterrorism threat, acc/to one person familiar with the matter.
    
Officials from some foreign governments…expressed dismay about the #Rubio invitation, citing what they call its vague aims & the short notice.

  37. But achieving that status for #Antifa would be a stretch, experts say.
    #US #law requires a group be foreign to be designated. “If it has any significant domestic presence, it cannot be designated,” said Jason Blazakis, who ran the #State Department’s designation process for 10 years before leaving in 2018.

  38. A linkage to foreign terrorist groups “can unlock certain investigative tools,” such as #surveillance, said one #US counterterrorism ofcl, who like several other officials interviewed for this article spoke on the condition of anonymity….

…Some #Trump admin officials fear that a future Democratic administration could use the tactic against conservative activists, one admin ofcl said. [what goes around comes around]

    The equipment for making chips is now so expensive that very few can afford to buy it.

    That is why I suggested a nation-state do it. I'd buy RAM and SSDs from Chips Canada, if it were to exist. (Or from an analogous company created by any trading partner in the blocs #Canada is joining or starting in response to the US trade war.) So would many individuals and small businesses here. So would our schools and hospitals, municipalities and utilities. So would the #CAF (our military) and the #RCMP (our federal police), as would our #nationalSecurity intelligence services. And so would heavy industry in sectors critical to the Canadian economy, for whom I know first-hand the current prices of RAM and SSDs directly contributing to suspension of operation at some plants and to minimizing of staffing at others.

    I had one recent contract, at a major producer of a leading Canadian export, which included my salvaging DDR3 from PCs planned for disposal.

    DDR3.
