I'm on the list. Are you?
By Alan Caruba
If you should suddenly cease to find my commentaries, I will either
have passed away or have been detained by agents of the Department of
Homeland Security (DHS) or the Defense Department and taken to an
undisclosed location for the crime of having been an “extremist” and a
danger to the nation.
In April 2009, the Washington Times published an article reporting
that “The Department of Homeland Security is warning law enforcement
officials about a rise in ‘rightwing extremist activity’, saying that
the economic recession, the election of America’s first black president,
and the return of a few disgruntled war veterans could swell the ranks
of white-power militias.”
Among those targeted by DHS were “groups and individuals that are
dedicated to a single-issue, such as opposition to abortion or
immigration.” Well, that’s only a few tens of millions of Americans.
Little wonder why, on April 5th, we learned that a U.S. Army Reserve
presentation regarding “extremist threats within the U.S. military
included Catholics and evangelicals!
These two groups represent half of all Americans and some forty
percent of active duty military personnel are evangelical Christians.
The Catholics and evangelicals were lumped in with “white supremacist
groups, street gangs, and religious sects.”
If our current leaders consider Christians a greater threat than Muslims, then they are idiots with a very dangerous agenda.
