ADRIAN, MICHIGAN (GaeaTimes.com)- Nine members of the Michigan based militia group, Hutaree have been taken into custody by federal agents on Monday, with charges such as plotting to murder police officers as well as waging a battle against the United States government being levied against them.
In a website that is supposedly run by the Hutaree militia group, it has claimed that it is gearing up for a war against the Antichrist and at the same time also alleges that it was taking the necessary initiatives for the war to keep Jesus Christ’s testimony alive. Moreover, the Hutaree militia group website also claims that it is Jesus Christ who wants them to defend themselves with the help of swords as well as other equipments. However, as of now, all the ventures of the extremist group, which refers to itself as a band of ‘Christian warriors’, seemed to have suffered a massive blow with around nine members detained by the federal officials after raids were carried out all across the Mid-West. Meanwhile, federal prosecutors have stated that the Hutaree militia group aimed to kill a law enforcement official and then with the help of explosive devices, also intended to murder more police officers who would have gathered in the funeral of the slain police official.
While divulging details about the group, U.S. Attorney General Barbara McQuade revealed that the federal agents did not waste any time in cracking down the Hutaree militia group as sources has stated that a vicious attack was being planned to be executed in the month of April. The philosophy of the extremist group is not something that people are unaware of, as Hutaree maintains it’s own website.
