seditious conspiracy
Seditious conspiracy () is a crime under United States law. It is stated as follows:
For a seditious conspiracy charge to be effected, a crime need only be planned, it need not be actually attempted. According to Andres Torres and Jose E. Velazquez, the accusation of seditious conspiracy is of political nature and was used almost exclusively against Puerto Rican independentistas in the twentieth century.〔(''The Puerto Rican movement: voices from the diaspora.'' ) Andrés Torres and Jose E. Velazquez. Temple University Press. 1998. p. 238. Retrieved 2 June 2013.〕 However, the act was also used in the twentieth century against communists and radicals (United Freedom Front, the Provisional IRA in Massachusetts), white supremacists,〔("Louis Beam" at Anti-Defamation League (ADL) website. )〕 and Islamic militants including Omar Abdel-Rahman. This is irrespective of the ''state'' sedition laws, used to persecute hundreds of communists, socialists and labor leaders.〔State Sedition Laws: Their Scope and Misapplication

==Background==
The federal government has never won a sedition case against militia-types, white supremacists, or neo-Nazis. Since World War I, they have won numerous seditious conspiracy cases against Puerto Rican independentistas, communists and others on the left, but no one on the radical right has ever been convicted of plotting to overthrow by force of arms the government of the United States.〔Leonard Zeskind.
