    Subject: Another website raided
    
    Hi Declan, I didn't see any coverage on politechbot.com of the website 
    that was raided and shutdown by the FBI & LA Antiterrorism taskforce on 
    Jan. 24, raisethefist.com.  Raisethefist.com hosted information and 
    discussion on the topics of anarchism and class war.  The search warrant 
    was based on charges of "computer fraud and abuse" and "distribution of 
    information related to explosives, destructive devices, and/or weapons of 
    mass destruction."
