Feds: White Supremacists Plotted To Bomb Synagogues And Black Churches
[su_gootxttop]
White supremacists met in Richmond, VA in September to plot the bombing of synagogues and black churches.
They were supposed to discuss, authorities alleged in an affidavit, “shooting or bombing the occupants of black churches and Jewish synagogues” and “conducting acts of violence against persons of the Jewish faith.”
The FBI, though, was watching the men and soon connected them with an undercover agent. Authorities say they brokered a deal with the agent, who was posing as an arms dealer, to buy weapons and were arrested earlier this week on charges that they conspired to possess guns after having been convicted of a felony.

According to affidavits in the case, the relatively modest charges foiled a nefarious plot. The men, according to the affidavits, planned a reign of terror — shooting or bombing religious institutions, robbing jewelers and armored cars and doing some unspecified harm to gun store owners in Virginia and Oklahoma.
