GA Murder Case Unveils Bizarre Terror Plot by Soldiers to Overthrow Gov’t, Assassinate President

GA Murder Case Involving Pfc. Michael Burnett Unveils Terror Plot by Soldiers

Photo credit: AP

LUDOWICI, Ga. (The Blaze/AP) — Prosecutors say a murder case against four soldiers in Georgia has revealed they formed an anarchist militia within the U.S. military with plans to overthrow the federal government.

One of the accused troops, Pfc. Michael Burnett, pleaded guilty Monday to manslaughter and gang charges in the December slayings of former soldier Michael Roark and his girlfriend, 17-year-old Tiffany York.

Burnett told a Long County judge that Roark, who had just left the Army, knew of the militia group’s plans and was killed because he was “a loose end.”

Prosecutor Isabel Pauley says the group bought $87,000 worth of guns and bomb-making materials and plotted to take over Fort Stewart, bomb targets in nearby Savannah and Washington state, as well as assassinate the president.

Below is a December 2011 report provided by q13Fox that explains the murders:

      Honestly, all of you Blaze readers need to take a minute and read the comments in this thread. You all need to seriously reevaluate your values in life. If these men were Muslims, imagine the uproar. There are actually people here saying “Way to go”, way to “Take the initiative”, “good plan, guys”.

      You are all very sad people and I hope that eventually someone in your bloodline reunites with rational society.

      If they committed murder then they should be charged and sentenced accordingly. I have no sympathy for zealots such as these who will murder their way along to fulfill their twisted goals. They should have got the vote out in 08, joined a tea party and made a difference the good old fashioned way….we still have a elected government, constitution and US laws to follow. As long as these are in place, there is hope.

      Remember our founding fathers. What they did was considered treason, to uprise against the british and start revolting. That is why we have the right to bear arms. Even if the new world order and our socialist dictator president decide to take away our freedoms, they will have a very very hard time. There are many more of us bearing arms than who they have. We outnumber them and all they can do is huff and puff and threaten. We have to stand sure and not give them any ground.

    The prosecutor is the one eluding to the involvement of the militia. The guys confessed to GANG CHARGES, NOT SEDITION.
    And where does a Private E-NOTHING get $80K+ to buy weapons and bomb making materials in the first place? Those guys make maybe 40K a year, and thats with being overseas receiving active duty pay and having family/children allowances!

    This is just another corrupt cop/politician that is trying to demonize anyone who disagrees with the government.

      AGAIN, Like the Aurora Massacre where the heck did these guys get $87,000? @ E-3 They make less than $1,800 a month before taxes. They likely spend about a third of that on upkeep of their uniforms, nearly forced weekly donations to the ARMY fund, Transportation on and off post. Plus Food outside of the DEFAC, Smokes, Drinking, Cell-Phone bills, Internet access etc, etc, etc, This smells like nothing more than B.S.

    Look, if you are going to take over a country. It is laughable to even consider 4 men could do it. It would take an organization of tens of thousands, kind of like the million man illegal alien march on Washington. Did anyone at that time think these invaders of our country were trying to take over our country? NO the media played it down like it was a plague. That little gathering was the closest our country has been to being overrun and subjugated by an invading foreign army since the war of 1812 and nobody even appeared to notice. They hung foreign flags in our Capitol and ignored all the laws in our country. Does that explain why our government officials are running scared of Mexicans? It also explains why now our government wants to placate them and grant them whatever they want. That little overrunning of our government scared the living crap out of our politicians. They saw it for what it was. They realized that if those Mexicans had had guns our government would have fallen and Mexico would have taken control by violence and intimidation of our government. As it is, the Mexicans took partial control by intimidation. What kind of government do we have now? It is a government controlled by people more interested in preserving the privileges than protecting the people of our country. It is a government that really has no purpose for existing, because the bureaucrats control everything. It is a government that is so afraid, it is afraid to protect itself.

      Anarchy, by definition, is a society without government. So I don’t think you can be a “globalist” or a “communist” and still be an anarchist. Espeically since a communist believes in communism, a from of goverment. You crazy nuts just try to string a bunch of scary words together and don’t even know what they mean.

    Just read elsewhere that the four arrested are memebers of an organized gang called F.E.A.R., short for Forever Enduring Always Ready. The actual size of the group is unknown and funding apparently came from one of the defendant’s half million dollar insurance benefits from the death of his wife a year earlier. The AT (F Troop) are also investigating the group for weapons trafficking. No further info is available such as their real motive or political leanings. But, I can only imagine that shortly the media will be screaming conservative Tea Party activists conspire to kill president soon. For the moment I will reserve my thoughts, and I think the media will be wrong again as usual.

      Read this story all the way to the end. There plans certainly do not sound like a group of conservatives. Plans to take control of Ft Stewart’s ASP, and bomb a water fountain in Savannah, as well as break a dam in Washington State, poisoning a water supply all in hopes of also ruining the apple crop.
      Sounds more to me that somebody converted to Islam and not a Tea Party assault. But, for now that is just a thought. I will not hold that to be the truth now, and await the following results of the investigation.

I don’t see the MSM or the Blaze trying to sequester the info on the anarchist anymore than these guys.

      But more importantly, the fact that troops were planning this shows just how much they detest this prez. They see what he’s doing just as the rest of us do, and right or wrong, they were adhereing to their oath: to defend the Constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic. And the Constitution does give them cover to do so. EXCEPT the Constitution also says that any failed attempt such as this allows the govt to bring the full weight of the law on thier heads.

From what I’ve read in the local paper today, it sounds like to me the ringleader is very much an anti-social personality disorder, it was reported he told investigators “I’m the nicest cold-blooded murderer you’ll ever meet”. They are also looking at this guy as possibly murdering another person (maybe his pregnant wife who died last year???) with the guy he murdered being a witness to the first murder. I had a feeling there was some major stuff going on under the radar about this case because of the way it was reported back when the two kids were murdered but I just assumed it was a drug ring thing, not something as crazy as this. I hope they all get the death penalty & justice is served swiftly.
