Military Now Being Training To See Pro-Life Americans As Terrorists

A group concerned with national security asked the Army’s inspector general on September 19 to look into whether staff at a branch garrison broke the law by letting pro-life groups be called terrorists in training classes.

In July, it came to light that over 9,000 troops at Fort Liberty had seen a slideshow presentation calling some pro-life groups “terrorist groups” as part of a class on security. A copy of the complaint says that the Center for Advancement of Security in America (CASA) told the Army’s inspector general last week that staff at Fort Liberty broke military law by letting the slideshow be shown for years until it was nationally reported in July and got a lot of negative feedback from the public.

CASA Director James Fitzpatrick told reporters, “The American people must the facts surrounding the use of these training materials for guards at Fort Liberty which label pro-life American citizens as ‘Terrorist Groups.'”

People from CASA made this report in the hopes that it will help find the people who spread this harmful anti-American speech throughout the Army.

According to the CASA complaint, it is not possible for the Army to let Fort Liberty make and show such a video. The complaint also calls for a full review of the situation.

The lawsuit also says that the staff at Fort Liberty may have broken a Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ) rule by letting the slideshow be made and shown in a terrorist training course.

“If you look at how much attention this issue got from the news, social media, and Congress, it’s clear that calling Americans who are against abortion members of “Terrorist Groups” has, at the very least, hurts discipline in the army,” the complaint says.

“There have been a lot of bad stories about the military, and some Americans may think that the Army is after them for exercising their right to free speech. This could hurt the military’s image.”
