 CNN.com - Art Harris: The Hunt for Eric Rudolph - July 27, 2001
Many suspected and convicted international terrorists are backed by a much larger organization, philosophically and financially, and to them it's a jihad, or holy war against the so-called infidels, represented by the American government.
In the case of domestic terror, from Timothy McVeigh to so-called abortion bombers to people like alleged serial bomber Eric Rudolph, these are often lone individuals not linked to any grand scheme but their own twisted, and often tragic, need to lash out in the name of their own personal ideology, often right-wing extremism.
Cabin break-ins in the area suggest the burglar was Rudolph, the police tell CNN, because valuable items like TV sets were left, and only men's underwear about his size, and toothpaste and soap were taken -- items a fugitive can't buy from raccoons in the woods.
