I'm just reading Toxi Terror/Jonathan B Tucker.

I was just reading about that very scary terrorist, Muharem Kurbegovic from Yugoslavia/Alphabet Bomber and he always pretended he was mute to everyone.

Personally, I'm much more afraid of the potential of Lone Wolves than groups, and this guy proved it.

He built his own terror networks thru the use of conventional explosives, chemical weapons and threats via the media and mail. He had L.A. living in fear.

His first bomb was planted in a locker at LAX, which killed 3 people and injured many and destruction in the terminal. His second bomb, much larger at 25 pounds, could have killed 100 people at the Greyhound bus station but thankfully it was found and detonated before it went off.

He had a stockpile of chemical weapons and sarin gas in his apartment, and he threatened to release sarin gas into the A/C vents of 30 L.A. skyscrapers, and threatened to release it over Capital Hill in Washington.

God forbid if they hadn't had him arrested in time. He's now serving his sentence at Pelican Bay in CA, and is denied parole each and every time.

And there was the Unabomber and the Oklahoma Bomber, and I classify him as a Lone Wolf.

What other scary Lone Wolves have there been throughout history as scary as this one?

I forgot to include the 64YO man that shot 600 people at an outdoor music festival on the LV Strip 7? years ago. He shot at them from the 32nd floor of Mandalay Bay, 58 of them died. And only later did they discover bomb making equipment in his car.

Lone Wolves don't trust anyone, they'd never reveal their secrets even to their pet dog or their best friends.

OKC was not "lonewolf" even if you believe the official narrative McVeigh / Nichols. It was fostered through an embedded operative(s) at the Elohim City compound to get a stalled piece of legislation passed (Anti-Terrorism Bill) during Clinton Administration and begin road to more restrictions and surveillance. Another instance where the physical evidence did not align with official story and many of original reports got immediately "scrubbed" to fit the narrative. As well as people like Police Officer Terrance Yeakey and Kenneth Trentadue.

You have to wonder what kind of individual mental process turned these people into mass killers. Religious avengers attacking the infidels. Or the inner rage of other people for some perceived injustice know to only to themselves.

One of the strangest was Ted Kaczynski, the Unabomber. Gifted in mathematics he graduated high school at age 15 started Harvard at 16. Participated in a strange psychological study with a professor at Harvard which they later blamed on his condition, Doctorate degree in math, professor at Berkley. Yet he raged against the industrial revolution blaming advances for the destruction. Mailed 16 bombs killing 3 and injuring 23, it was over 15 years before he was caught by the FBI.

Which he was absolutely right about of course, but he chose an illogical and immoral, murderous and completely ineffective way of fighting back against it. Of course for him it was more revenge than a serious attempt at effecting change.

Andrew Kehoe is the most despicable terrorist-mass murderer I know of. He's not well known and probably he shouldn't be. I hesitate to even mention him.
