Topic: Fort Hood soldiers say Army warned them off tea party, Christian groups - page 4. (Read 3813 times)

Well, now.

We can't have reporting on Fast and Furious, Bengazi, the IRS Corruption Caper, or other unsavory things that reflect poorly on the administration, can we?

And think about it.  When an Islamic Fort Hood soldier starts shouting Ala Akbar and killing people, we can't have the media labeling him an "Islamic Terrorist", can we?

Why, the silly trouble maker of a Fort Hood soldier should have gone to CNN.  They wouldn't have reported the story.  And we wouldn't have to worry about it.

Little problem there, boys and girls?

This type of polarization is the problem, rather than a solution.  I don't particularly understand or like Muslims, those Jews with the funny high hats, Amish, knuckle dragging libtards, and many other types of stereotypes of people. 

But that's different than that is being reported on in this thread. 

Remember, it's you they come for next.

The Secretary of the Army has ordered military leaders to halt all briefings on extremist organizations that labeled Evangelical Christian groups as domestic hate groups. The shutdown comes just four days after I reported exclusively about a briefing at Mississippi’s Camp Shelby that labeled the American Family Association as a domestic hate group.

“On several occasions over the past few months, media accounts have highlighted instances of Army instructors supplementing programs of instruction and including information or material that is inaccurate, objectionable and otherwise inconsistent with current Army policy,” Army Sec. John McHugh wrote to military leaders in a memorandum I obtained.

McHugh “directed that Army leaders cease all briefings, command presentations or training on the subject of extremist organizations or activities until that program of instruction and training has been created and disseminated,” Army spokesman Col. David Patterson, Jr., tells me.

The Chaplain Alliance for Religious Liberty welcomed the news and said it was about time the Secretary of the Army intervened.

“Men and women of faith – who have served the Army faithfully for centuries – have been likened to those who regularly threaten the peace and security of the United States,” said Ron Crews, executive director of the Chaplain Alliance. “It is dishonorable for any U.S. military entity to allow this type of improper characterization.”

The Fox news organisation is made up of some of the most stupid people on the planet, they actually believed an onion news network news item was real at one point and just posted it up without thinking, while by itself it's understandable if they didn't realise but they don't even blink when they scream out their stupid shit but that's what most news networks are like anyway.

But according to the mainstream media and the president, foxnews is not mainstream but a fringe. The official sanctioned Mainstream Media are: NPR, CBS, NBC, ABC, NYT, MSNBC, Soros founded Media Matters.org, Politico, Daily Beast, OFA, Salon.com.

LOL, my thoughts exactly.

There's your problem right there.  Mainstream media parroting a story reported by a fake news channel.

    Don’t donate to the tea party or to evangelical Christian groups — that was the message soldiers at a pre-deployment briefing at Fort Hood said they received from a counter-intelligence agent who headed up the meeting.

    If you do, you could face punishment — that was the other half of the message, as reported by Fox News.

    The briefing was Oct. 17, and about a half-hour of it was devoted to discussion about how perceived radical groups — like tea party organizations and the Christian-based American Family Association — were “tearing the country apart,” one unnamed soldier said, to Fox News.

    Among the remarks the agent allegedly made: Military members who donate to these groups would be subject to discipline under the Uniform Code of Military Justice, the soldier reported.

    Liberty Institute has stepped in to investigate. Michael Berry, one of the nonprofit’s attorneys, said he has been advising the soldier about his options — but that in the meanwhile, he said the American public should be on guard.

    “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,” Mr. Berry said, in Fox News. “These statements about evangelicals being domestic enemies are a serious charge.”

I had no idea the US Army was involved in selectively targeting US citizens or members of the soldier's family in many cases.
