The leaders of the plot to bomb an Ohio highway bridge are members of the “Occupy” movement, but you won’t find that information in much of the mainstream media coverage of the story.
The FBI arrested five people in a federal sting operation in which FBI agents provided inoperable explosives to suspects allegedly intending to bomb a bridge about 15 miles south of Cleveland. The suspects, Douglas Wright, 26, Brandon Baxter, 20, and Anthony Hayne, 35, are described as self-proclaimed anarchists in a Justice Department statement. All three are connected to the Occupy Cleveland group.
The men were arrested Monday on charges of conspiracy and attempted use of explosive materials. Charges are pending against Connor Stevens, 20, and Joshua Stafford, 23, who were also arrested, the department said. The men are scheduled to appear today in federal court in Cleveland.
Baxter, Hayne and Wright all appear to have connections to Occupy Cleveland and the overall Occupy movement –a movement marked by extensive violence and criminality, yet embraced by Democrats and liberal leaders such as Nancy Pelosi and President Barack Obama. That may explain why the liberal media is downplaying or ignoring the Occupy connection – it might embarrass Obama.

the river so that the police are moved away as well. ”
This came from the FBI report in regard to the arrests made.
Baxter was planning using the OWS protest as a decoy at one point – does this show he is a little more than a protest attendee, or a member – seems more like the words of an organizer. He is either an organizer or OWS is such a group of brainless sheep that a idiot like Baxter can lead them at will
