Technology, Terrorism, and Crime
One of the most heinous terrorist groups currently operating in the U.S. In called the "Aryan Nations." This group openly states on their website that they have been "Fighting Jewish Takeover for over 35 years." (aryan-nation.org) This group of domestic terrorists post articles on their website with grammatically incorrect titles like "The menace of Multiculturalism," and "Jews that control Hollywood: Meet the filthy Kikes are behind that industry." (aryan-nation.org) There is no doubt that his group is one that is dedicated to ideals of Adolph Hitler and the supremacy of the Aryan race. This group has also used the latest technology to spread their message of hate.
The Aryan Nations is a far right white supremacist religious organization based on the teachings of Wesley Swift, who founded a church based on anti-Semitism in California in the 1940's. In the 1970's, Richard Girnt Butler founded the Aryan Nations as part of Swift's church, renamed the Church of Jesus Christ-Christian. The Federal Bureau of Investigation has determined that the Aryan Nations is a terrorist threat, and others have called it the "first truly nationwide terrorist network in the U.S." ("Extremism in America")
Along with Butler, other leaders of this organization were Neuman Britton, elected leader in 1998. However, Butler dismissed him and brought in Harold Ray Redfeairn to replace him. Redfeairn then made the mistake of allowing an FBI informant into the group, who later exposed much of the groups activities. The distrusted Redfeairn allied with August Kries to form a splinter group, but returned a few months later. The group is currently split into three main factions, one led by August Kries in Pennsylvania. A second faction is called the Phineas Priesthood, and is based in New York State, while the third faction is based in Idaho and Texas and headed by Pastors Jay Farber and Jerald O'Brien.
The Aryan Nations has used technology to spread it's message of hate and intolerance. As mentioned before, the Aryan Nation maintains a website which allows the most vile and heinous posts. "Jew Jokes," and other such insultingly intolerant...
Terrorism Influences Terrorism has no specific definition and its definition largely depends upon the viewpoint of an individual for example Samuel Adams (a well-known revolutionary fireband) or Thomas Gefferson would have been terrorist from British perspective but they have been Great heroes from American perspective.

Terrorism is at this point one of the main threats that decision makers in the field of national security have to deal with especially in the United States. The issue has been raised mainly after the events from 9/11 2001, but have been a constant concern for the law enforcement agencies since the beginning of the 90s and even before.

Thus, targets are so numerous that complete protection of all is impossible. Targets could include any of the governmental buildings in Washington, D.C., courthouses or public buildings in major cities, malls, churches, and transportation centers
Some rates had even decreased. Maritime shipping rates grew by 5 to 10% on average in the two weeks after the attack, but that rise was soon reversed. Airfreight rates, however, were about 10% higher in late 2001 than before the attacks. Due to the abrupt slowing of cumulative demand starting in 2000 and the decline in fuel costs after the terrorism, there should have been a steeper falling
But an open system of prevention could be the alternative. It would subject the court or legislature to closer and public scrutiny (Robinson).
