Wikipedia: History of Domestic terrorism

Difference (from prior major revision) (minor diff, author diff)

Changed: 3c3

Domestic terrorism is generally underestimated, especially within the United States: when a terrorist attack occurs the first reaction is to presume that it was committed by foreigners. That presumption was made for example in the case of the Oklahoma Ciy bombing. The revelation that the attack was actually committed by Americans as opposed to foreigners was a shock to the people of the United States, who had presumed it had been committed by foreigners.
