Oh, the church burnings were just a joke these three college students say. I have been drunk many times in my life but I never had an urge to burn down a church, mosque or temple, let alone nine of them!! But these three Jewish boys (I am guessing this from their names, and performed a data base search of Jewish names and all three were on it) sure had it in for Christian churches. Maybe it was a hate crime against Christians? Well, Jews can never be accused of a hate crime. No, they have the Holocaust on their side. If my accustiaon is false I will apologize as it is not easy to find out if they really are Jewish on such short notice. The article contents though were very suggestive of the background to the burnings and the subsequent coverup. Imagine if all the redneck white Christian trash learned all 3 boys were Jewish!!??
I previously reported that the Columbine killings stunk to high heaven of Jewish on Christian hatred. The two shooters were Jewish.
(Note: then Michael Moore comes out with his Bowling for Columbine movie to essentially cover that up--ie, create a smoke screen to divert attention from o more explosive story-- and make it into an anti-gun movie; then later coming out with Farhenheit 911 movie to cover up the neocon (e, Zionist) involvement in 911, ie, create another smoke screen to divert attention away from Jewsih involvement.
You see, I believe Michael Moore is a propagandist that does not really act in the interests of liberal Americans. He appears to be, but in point of fact he a smoke screener to make liberals feel good that someone is doing something when most liberals only talk in their coffee shops wearing berets and their "liberality" on their sleeves. Believe me, this is what I think is going on.)
Drinking May Have Fueled Ala. Church Fires
By JAY REEVES, Associated Press Writer 30 minutes ago
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. - Three college students suspected of a string of Alabama church fires may have been out drinking when they began their spree, authorities said.

Benjamin Nathan Moseley and Russell Lee DeBusk Jr., both 19-year-old theater students at Birmingham-Southern College, were arrested this week along with 20-year-old Matthew Lee Cloyd, who was studying pre-med at the University of Alabama at Birmingham.
Throughout the monthlong investigation, authorities said alcohol could have led to a warped bravado that sparked the arsons, and initial interviews with the suspects bore out the theory, according to one officer.
However, deputy state fire marshal Ed Paulk, who was involved in the investigation, said he did not know if alcohol was a direct factor.
"We were told by official sources ... that seemingly some drinking, some night hunting, was ultimately what led to all of this," said Randy Youngblood, the campus police chief at Birmingham-Southern College.
A federal judge postponed a hearing set for Friday to determine whether to grant bond for three college students accused of setting fires that damaged or destroyed nine rural churches in Alabama on Feb. 3 and Feb. 7.
In a brief docket note, U.S. Magistrate Judge Robert R. Armstrong said he was delaying the hearing until Wednesday at the request of defense lawyers.
The move meant the three will remain jailed at least until next week on federal charges of conspiracy and setting fire to one of the churches, Ashby Baptist. If convicted, each count carries a mandatory minimum sentence of five years in prison. Additional charges are possible, authorities have said.
Federal and state authorities have not commented on a possible motive, beyond evidence that an apparent prank spun out of control. Defense attorneys have not commented either, but say the fires were not crimes of hate.
Cloyd is the son of a doctor, and DeBusk attended college on a theater scholarship after being voted "most dramatic" by his high school classmates in 2004. Moseley was president of his high school's student council, and his father is an elected constable.
Court documents show Cloyd told a witness this week that he and Moseley "had done something stupid" and that they set a church ablaze "as a joke." Accompanied by DeBusk, they eventually torched five churches that night in Bibb County after seeing the first fire trucks, according to the document, a sworn statement by a federal agent.
"After they lit the first two fires, it became spontaneous," said ATF regional head Jim Cavanaugh. "Excitement, thrill was the motive."
Moseley told police he and Cloyd set four more fires in west Alabama four days later "as a diversion to throw investigators off," but the plan didn't work, the agent said in the document.
Friends of the three suspects have described behavior that turned from goofy pranks to vandalism after at least one of the young men, Cloyd, began drinking more heavily last fall. Cloyd mentioned alcohol in a Web message on Facebook.com to Moseley earlier this year when he said it was "time to reconvene the season of evil."
DeBusk reportedly invited a friend to go "demon hunting" last year and claimed to be a Satanist, but the trip did not amount to much other than a night of drinking, friends said.
"All it ended up being was us playing guitar in the woods while a few of them got drunk," Jeremy Burgess, DeBusk's roommate, told The Birmingham News. "I didn't think anything of it."
