Former and Active Duty members plot terror attacks......

LUDOWICI, Ga. (AP) — Four Army soldiers based in southeast Georgia killed a former comrade and his girlfriend to protect an anarchist militia group they formed that stockpiled assault weapons and plotted a range of anti-government attacks, prosecutors told a judge Monday.

Prosecutors in rural Long County, near the sprawling Army post Fort Stewart, said the militia group of active and former U.S. military members spent at least $87,000 buying guns and bomb components. They allege the group was serious enough to kill two people — former soldier Michael Roark and his 17-year-old girlfriend, Tiffany York — by shooting them in the woods last December in order to keep its plans secret.

"This domestic terrorist organization did not simply plan and talk," prosecutor Isabel Pauley told a Superior Court judge. "Prior to the murders in this case, the group took action. Evidence shows the group possessed the knowledge, means and motive to carry out their plans."

One of the Fort Stewart soldiers charged in the case, Pfc. Michael Burnett, also gave testimony that backed up many of the assertions made by prosecutors. The 26-year-old soldier pleaded guilty Monday to manslaughter, illegal gang activity and other charges. He made a deal to cooperate with prosecutors against the three other soldiers.

Prosecutors said the group called itself F.E.A.R., short for Forever Enduring Always Ready. Pauley said authorities don't know how many members it had.

Burnett, 26, said he knew the group's leaders from serving with them at Fort Stewart. He agreed to testify against fellow soldiers Pvt. Isaac Aguigui, identified by prosecutors as the militia's founder and leader, and Sgt. Anthony Peden and Pvt. Christopher Salmon

Still, what makes it okay for military people to try to overthrow the government?

Last I checked, we were a democracy, not some military junta.

4 low ranking members of the military do not an overthrow make.


the first question one needs to ask is, if they spent 87000 dollars on weapons and explosives and one of them is cooperating, why are only 4 charged? How come they have no idea how many supposedly belong to the group? Where are the weapons and explosives?

If I have 87000 dollars and buy weapons and legal products ( which I assume they did) I am breaking no law. If I get together with 3 other idiots that believe what I do, it does not mean I have the means , people or capability to Assassinate the President or overthrow the Government.

There are over a million men and women in our military. Guess what? Some of them are criminals, some are nut cases and some are dangerous. I would suggest the percentage is so small as to be zero.

This story is a hit piece and the timing is an attempt to sway voters into a belief that we are all in danger of some nebulous group in the military.

Unless more people are identified, targets identified and actual plans revealed, this is a none story of 4 whacko's in the military.

They're still investigating to see how big the organization is, and no, I don't think it's limited to just these guys.
