Well it appears our enemy has been emboldened enough to publish a “How To” manual on Killing Americans. This is nothing new, just like during the 70’s when we were fighting the scourge of the far-left wingers and the practitioners of Political Domestic Terrorism like The Weather Underground and the RAF put out their manuals,…
