Title: Does the Army consider Christians/Tea Party Groups Terrorists?
Post by: Splashdown on October 24, 2013, 09:16:09 AM
From Fox News (http://www.foxnews.com/opinion/2013/10/23/does-army-consider-christians-tea-party-terror-threat/):

Quote
Soldiers attending a pre-deployment briefing at Fort Hood say they were told that evangelical Christians and members of the Tea Party were a threat to the nation and that any soldier donating to those groups would be subjected to punishment under the Uniform Code of Military Justice.

A soldier who attended the Oct. 17th briefing told me the counter-intelligence agent in charge of the meeting spent nearly a half hour discussing how evangelical Christians and groups like the American Family Association were “tearing the country apart.”

Michael Berry, an attorney with the Liberty Institute, is advising the soldier and has launched an investigation into the incident.


“The American public should be outraged that the U.S. Army is teaching our troops that evangelical Christians and Tea Party members are enemies of America, and that they can be punished for supporting or participating in those groups,” said Berry, a former Marine Corps JAG officer.


The Public affairs dept. at Fort Hood is denying it.

The alleged briefing happened at Ft. Hood, of all places. If this is true, it's scary as hell.

There are lots of weird things happening to our military.  If you list every new change since Obama took office, you could see it better.  Same with Homeland Security.

Who is behind all these changes?  Something is afoot.   :mad:

I notice that since Obama came to office in 2009.

The idiot CIC officer in this briefing and one that popped up about a month ago are not getting their info from official sources i.e. DEOMI.

In both instances the briefer went free lance and used the SPLC data to make their idiotic and uninformed power point slides.

But the question now becomes: how will they be dealt with? Silence is consent.

I agree. I need to contact my friend at DEOMI and find out what they do in instances like this when someone goes off the reservation in their briefing.
