Background<\/h3>\n

Project Megiddo was a report researched and written by the United States’ Federal Bureau of Investigation under Director Louis Freeh.<\/p>\n

Released on October 20, 1999, the report named followers of white supremacy, Christian Identity, the militia movement, Black Hebrew Israelites, and apocalyptic cults as potential terrorists who might become violent in reaction to the new millennium.<\/p>\n

The report’s purpose was to warn other domestic law enforcement agencies to “the potential for extremist criminal activity in the United States by individuals or domestic groups who attach special significance to the year 2000.” <\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

The report also stated:<\/p>\n

“The threat posed by extremists as a result of perceived events associated with the Year 2000 is very real.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The volatile mix of apocalyptic religious and (New World Order) conspiracy theories may produce violent acts aimed a precipitating the end of the world as prophesied in the Bible.”<\/strong><\/p>\n
