DHS thinks right-wing extremists are a bigger threat than Islamic extremists?

Via CNN:
A new intelligence assessment, circulated by the Department of Homeland Security this month and reviewed by CNN, focuses on the domestic terror threat from right-wing sovereign citizen extremists and comes as the Obama administration holds a White House conference to focus efforts to fight violent extremism.
Some federal and local law enforcement groups view the domestic terror threat from sovereign citizen groups as equal to — and in some cases greater than — the threat from foreign Islamic terror groups, such as ISIS, that garner more public attention.​
The Homeland Security report, produced in coordination with the FBI, counts 24 violent sovereign citizen-related attacks across the U.S. since 2010.
Granted the Alfred P. Murrah federal building bombing in Oklahoma City on April 19, 1995 was a horrid attack by a right-wing extremist. There have been a small number of murders since then that some would attribute to right-wing ideology, but they pale in comparison to what Islamic extremists have done in the last 20 years. Here is a list of Islamic related terror attacks against the American Homeland since the Tim McVeigh Oklahoma City bombing.
