http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fifth_column

From wiki:

The term originated with a 1936 radio address by Emilio Mola, an insurgent general during the 1936–39 Spanish Civil War. As his army approached Madrid, he broadcast a message that the four columns of his forces outside the city would be supported by a "fifth column" of his supporters inside the city, intent on undermining the Republican government from within (see Siege of Madrid).[1]
In fact, this supposed "fifth column" did not prove very effective, as evidenced by the fact that Madrid held out until 1939 despite very heavy fighting. Nevertheless, the term caught on and was used extensively, especially by those fighting the Fascists and Nazis. It was especially in wide use in Britain in the early stages of the Second World War. There, fear of the "fifth Column" was used as justification for the mass internment, on the Isle of Man, of German nationals who resided in the United Kingdom. The United States also interned Japanese citizens around the same time using similar justificatio

I think to myself for the first time, I'm going to get blowed up by a car bomb

I don't see the reasoning for this post, other than the fact that you are now trying to publicize (more than usual) your fear and hate for anything different from you. I know you like the responses you get to your idiotic and hateful posts, but seriously... lol... Get a life dude...
