“Occupy Wall St” Extremists with Bombmaking Materials and Guns Arrested in Greenwich Village

While the media keeps shoving the “rocket launchers” turning up in the Los Angeles gun buyback program, they won’t give nearly as much press to their favorite anarchist maggot movement, Occupy Wall St. [emphasis added]:

The daughter of a prominent New York doctor and her Occupy Wall Street-organizer boyfriend were arrested after police discovered an explosive used for making bombs and a cache of weapons in their upscale New York City apartment, it was claimed.

Morgan Gliedman, 27, and Aaron Greene, 31, were taken away from their home in Manhattan’s pricey Greenwich Village on Saturday.

Gliedman, who is nine months pregnant, is the daughter of a top Brooklyn cancer doctor and was educated at the Dalton School, an exclusive New York prep school attended by the likes of Anderson Cooper and Claire Danes.

Greene went to Harvard University for his undergraduate degree and did graduate work at the Kennedy School of Government there, as well.

The New York Post reports that police found seven grams of HMTD, a high explosive powder that was reportedly used in the 2005 London Underground bombings. 

Officers discovered bomb-making instructions, including one document titled ‘The Terrorist Encyclopedia,’ according to the newspaper

Police evacuated the building and several others nearby as the bomb squad removed to highly-unstable material from the apartment.

Officers also found a flare gun that could be used as a grenade launcher, a modified Mossberg 500 12-gauge shotgun, nine high-capacity rifle magazines and ammunition, according to the Post.

 Dangerous: Gleidman's Greenwich Village apartment building, as well as several surrounding buildings, had to be evacuated because of the explosive material

Police confiscated several notebooks with instructions for making boobytraps and makeshift submachine guns and several sheets with handwritten chemical formulas.

Greene is an activist with Occupy Wall Street and friends told police his political views are ‘extreme,’ a source told the newspaper.

The NYPD told MailOnline they are investigating whether Gleidman has ties to the protest group, as well.

The NYPD allegedly found the dangerous material after they went to Gliedman and Greene’s apartment to question Gliedman, who was wanted for credit card theft, the Post reports.

Gleidman’s father is Dr Paul Gleidman, the Columbia University-educated director of radiation oncology at Beth Israel Hospital’s Brooklyn division.

Her mother is Susyn Schops Gliedman, a top New York real estate agent.

This story won’t advance the media’s leftist agenda, so they’ll mostly ignore it, even though it’s merely the latest in a long string of examples of how the Occupy Movement radicalizes Americans to extremist positions and actions.
