. . . most terror plots in the U.S. have nothing to do with al Qaeda

Gee... the most complete report on terrorist attacks in the U.S. from the National Consortium for the Study of Terrorism and Responses to Terrorism (START) shows that your ThinkProgress chart is complete nonsense:

From page 19 of the report -
Terrorist Attacks by Ideological Motivation, 1970–2008 Total:
Extreme Right-Wing = 58
Extreme Left-Wing = 364
Religious = 14
Ethno-National / Separatist = 320
Single Issue = 337

Let's also look at Table 7 - by decade

Actually, the ThinkProgress chart shows START's data is bogus.

Actually, the ThinkProgress chart shows START's data is bogus.

So what is the source of the ThinkProgress data?

Is it from the leading terrorism research group in the U.S.? I think not.

It is time that you came to understand that if a chart from a media organization cannot firmly cite a particular report from a respected organization then they just made the stuff up. Listing a few organization names on the bottom of your chart is meaningless.

Thinkprogress = propaganda for the stupid.

One look at Mark Potok of the southern poverty law center should be all anyone needs to realise their a bunch of kooks.

No, the three groups' data compiled in that chart is more authoritative.

No, the three groups' data compiled in that chart is more authoritative.

So please provide the raw data and reports from these three groups.

Until your provide the data, let's see what the FBI thinks of the SPLC...

The Southern Poverty Law Center, which has labeled several Washington, D.C.-based family organizations as "hate groups" for favoring traditional marriage, has been dumped as a "resource" on the FBI's Hate Crime Web page, a significant rejection of the influential legal group.
