Maybe I am the last to hear about this. A group based in Tennessee and led by a gentleman named Robert Doggart had planned to attack a Muslim community near Hancock, NY (right in the middle of the state). They had planned to burn the Muslims' buildings and were prepared for massive violence. They planned to arm themselves* with assault rifles, explosives and machetes.
"If it gets down to the machete, we will cut them to shreds," Doggart said on a call intercepted by the FBI, according to a criminal complaint.↧
