National Security Risk: The DOD
It is a good thing that the FBI is monitoring those whacko environmentalists. Clearly, the environmental lobby has been trying to hinder and finally put an end to research into the "massive underground plumes of an industrial solvent [...] discovered in the nation's water supplies." By that, I mean the Department of Defense realized that the cost of cleaning up said solvent on their military bases around the nation would be cripplingly high. Not wanting to waste billions of dollars on environmental cleanup, they fought and dismissed the EPA's finding that the solvent, TCE, is "40 times more likely to cause cancer than [was] previously believed." Unlike what those crazy environmentalists are up to, knowingly putting millions of Americans at risk is clearly not an act of terrorism. I am glad our Department of Homeland Security has its priorities straight when it comes to monitoring National Security risks. (via: L.A. Times)
