Justice Dept. Revives Domestic Terror Unit 
-------------------------------------------


 
The Obama administration is reviving a law enforcement group focusing on
politically motivated domestic terrorism. The first such task force was
established after the bombing of the Oklahoma City federal building in
1995, but was then disbanded after the 9/11 attacks. The Justice
Department says it is re-establishing the unit following a spate of
attacks from home-grown extremists. In April, a white supremacist killed
three people at two Jewish community sites in Kansas.
