RW Wiki update
Our group behind it has been working on it for a while, and it's far from complete (There's only one page I feel satisfied with BTW). But, Wiki's aren't meant to be 'completed'. Most of the categories have at least one working page on it. I have yet to work on RW scandals or terrorism, but I feel those will be the most daunting, so I want to save that for later.

Here is our 'beta version' of the RW Infopedia.

Check it out and if you have any suggestions of what you'd like to see, please add them here.

1. Oh, man, if you want to get scared
Check out the Chalcedon Group, Rushdooney's group. Then follow the trail to all the other groups attempting to turn the U.S. into a theocracy. A very, very unpleasant theocracy, roughly equivalent to Iran. You know, horse-whipping for miniskirts and hanging for atheism.

3. full circle
Hopefully those people can go back to Abraham, link heritages with Islam, and form their own little repressive subculture in some remote corner of the globe.

4. Here's just a little taste
Such views pale before Morecraft's deeper views of life and government. In his book, and especially when speaking at the 1993 Biblical World View and Christian Education Conference, Morecraft discussed with relish the police power of the state. His belief in the persecution of nonbelievers and those who are insufficiently orthodox is crystal clear. Morecraft described democracy as "mob rule," and stated that the purpose of "civil government" is to "terrorize evil doers. . . to be an avenger!" he shouted, "To bring down the wrath of God to bear on all those who practice evil!"

"And how do you terrorize an evil doer?" he asked. "You enforce Biblical law!" The purpose of government, he said, is "to protect the church of Jesus Christ," and, "Nobody has the right to worship on this planet any other God than Jehovah. And therefore the state does not have the responsibility to defend anybody's pseudo-right to worship an idol!" "There ain't no such thing" as religious pluralism, he declared. Further, "There has never been such a condition in the history of mankind. There is no such place now. There never will be." Transcendent Acts

THIS IS WHAT THE RIGHT WING IS REALLY ALL ABOUT!

7. oh boy
"Bombing of Piazza Fontana" and "Bombing of the Bologna railway station" (two of the categories)

Those are part of Operation Gladio.
That's some can of worms you're about to open there. This could become very interesting.

I figure Bologna was a bit of a failure because it was found out that a RW group was behind it and that the secret service was involved. Usually they manage to either remain anonymous (strategy of tension), or have it blamed on some left-wing activist group (false-flag).


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bologna_massacre
The Bologna massacre (Italian: Strage di Bologna) was a terrorist bombing at the Central Station of Bologna, Italy on the morning of August 2, 1980, which killed 85 people and wounded more than 200. The far-right terrorist organization Ordine Nuovo has been accused of it, while two SISMI (Italian secret service) agents and the headmaster of P2 masonic lodge, Licio Gelli, were convicted for investigation diversion.


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gladio
During the Cold War era, Operation Gladio was a clandestine "stay-behind" operation sponsored by the CIA and NATO to counter a possible Warsaw Pact invasion of Western Europe after World War II in Italy, as well as in other European countries. <1> NATO stay-behind armies existed in all countries of Western Europe during the Cold War, including Turkey.

Gladio, the Latin word for sword, is a colloquial term to denote the stay-behind networks in various European countries. The exact details of each stay-behind network are still unknown, although Italy, Switzerland and Belgium have had parliamentary inquiries into the matter.
...

Gladio's existence came to public knowledge when Prime Minister Giulio Andreotti revealed it to the Chamber of Deputies on October 24, 1990, although far-right terrorist Vincenzo Vinciguerra had already revealed its existence during his 1984 trial. Thirty years after the December 1969 Piazza Fontana bombing, which started the strategia della tensione, General Giandelio Maletti indicated that the massacre had been carried out by the Italian stay-behind army and right wing terrorists on orders of the CIA in order to discredit the PCI, which was negotiating the historic compromise with the Christian Democracy.
