Are Conservatives becoming the Party of Terrorism?

It used to be that conservatives cared about the economy and international commerce.

But in recent years, progressives have become more tolerant of free markets and trade and are now encroaching on the territory conservatives previously held on fiscal matters.

This has left conservatives with a bit of an identity crisis and it appears that it has somehow led to an unhealthy obsession with terrorism.

Former New Mexico Gov. Gary Johnson is in partial agreement with Donald Trump, who claimed at a rally Wednesday night that President Barack Obama and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton co-founded the Islamic State.

The Libertarian presidential nominee charged the Democratic duo in a MSNBC interview Thursday with "unintentionally" establishing the terrorist group as a result of choosing to pull U.S. troops from Iraq in 2011.

"t wasn't intentional, but you can't make it up when they go in and they support the opposition in Libya and Syria and the opposition is aligned with ISIS and we arm the opposition and they lose those arms to ISIS," Johnson told MSNBC Live host Stephanie Ruhle.

Johnson's campaign hopes to reach voters who do not want to choose a candidate based on the "lesser of two evils." His approach could explain why he did not completely back Trump's statement about Obama and Clinton, but has also been quick to condemn the Democratic nominee for her "bad judgment" in the State Department email server incident.

Johnson and his running mate, former Massachusetts Gov. Bill Weld, are both former Republicans, but hope to strike it big with voters who have been turned off by the two major parties and want another choice.

Libertarian nominee agrees: Obama, Clinton created ISIS

Left-wing terrorism (sometimes called Marxist–Leninist terrorism or revolutionary/left-wing terrorism) is terrorism meant to overthrow conservative or capitalist systems and replace them with Marxist–Leninist, socialist or Anarchist societies. Left-wing terrorism also occurs within already socialist states as activism against the current ruling government

No, Marx was a philosopher who lived a normal middle class lifestyle until his death in England. The terrorists were people like Lenin and so on who adapted his philosophy for violent revolution.
So you are saying socialism just hasn't been done right ? Check .

In his article, The Victory of the Counter-Revolution in Vienna, Neue Rheinische Zeitung, No. 136, 7 November 1848, Karl Marx wrote: “… there is only one means to shorten, simplify and concentrate the murderous death throes of the old society and the bloody birth pangs of the new, only one means – revolutionary terrorism

The order to murder the Tsar and his family actually came from New York. Lenin had hardly any say in the matter. The Bolsheviks had been forced to flee from Yekaterinburg in such haste that they had no time to destroy all the telegraph strips. Those strips were later found in the telegraph house. Nikolai Sokolov [author of a detailed investigation carried out in 1919 under the authority of "White" (anti-Communist) leader Alexander Kolchak] took care of them but could not decipher the telegrams. This was done only in 1922 by a group of experts in Paris. Sokolov then discovered that the strips were extremely revealing, since they dealt with the murder of the Tsar and his family.


The chairman of the Central Executive Committee, Yakov Sverdlov, sent a message to Yakov Yurovsky where he relayed that after he had told Jacob Schiff in New York about the approach of the White army, he had received orders from Schiff to liquidate the Tsar and his entire family at once. This order was delivered to Sverdlov by the American Representation, which then lay in the town of Vologda.

You confuse socialism with communism. Not surprising since most conservatives do. Socialism is Sweden & Norway. The countries you mentioned were communist. Back to school with you.
