The Anti-“Terrorist” Crackdown on Cop City Protesters Is the War on Terror Coming Home
By Branko Marcetic


Though the number of domestic terrorism prosecutions has dropped as of November 2022, it’s still nearly 500 percent higher than it was five years ago, and convictions are also up more than 300 percent since the same time. According to the Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse, which compiles these figures, domestic terrorism prosecutions have outnumbered those of international terrorism every year since they’ve been tracked, other than the three years following the September 11 attacks, with prosecutions of the latter hitting a notable low in 2020 — the same year domestic terrorism cases spiked to a historic high.
