A few sites are starting to get a story about how the "Domestic Terror Task Force" is being ressurected. '"But now, as the nature of the threat we face evolves to including the possibility of individual radicalization via the Internet, it is critical that we return our focus to potential extremists here at home," Holder said in the video broadcast.'

I'd crawl over an acre of 'Visual This++' and 'Integrated Development
That' to get to gcc, Emacs, and gdb. Thank you.

> the real reason this is being addressed now by Holder is because there are and will be a lot of returning Iraq and Afghanistan veterans,
Bullsheet.
As of 2011 there were already 1.3M veterans Iraq and Afghanistan that had mustered out. [go.com] As of Jan 1st this year there were only 38,000 still in Afghanistan. At roughly 6 months in the field at a time and conservatively assuming no repeats, and conservatively assuming that everybody who served in the field also left the service, that makes for ~140,000 since 2011.
If returning vets were a threat we would have been seeing tons of problems. So far, just one guy, which seems kind of low.
