West Point center cites dangers of 'far right' in U.S. - Washington Times
The report issued this week by the Combating Terrorism Center at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, N.Y., is titled “Challengers from the Sidelines: Understanding America’s Violent Far-Right.”
The center — part of the institution where men and women are molded into Army officers — posted the report Tuesday. It lumps limited government activists with three movements it identifies as “a racist/white supremacy movement, an anti-federalist movement and a fundamentalist movement.”(more at link)The report says there were 350 “attacks initiated by far-right groups/individuals” in 2011.
Details about what makes an attack a “far right” action are not clear in the report, which was written by Arie Perliger, who directs the center’s terrorism studies and teaches social sciences at West Point.
I don't even know where to begin.................
You know, I'm old enough to remember when being proud to be an American by supporting the Constitution and all it was built/founded on was considered patriotism. Somehow now it seems that pretty much makes one "anti" American? I wouldn't consider myself far-right, unless that means I believe in the Constitution and BOR. Maybe that's all that's required any more
We've sure taken a wrong fork in the road somewhere America.............
