aI would hope groups are being watched. Some have given money to teerorists (eg CodePink gave $600,000 to Fallujah). Some have shut down military sites (recruiting offices, wharfs).
I would not be surprised if others are as treacherous.

So has the ACLU targeted these people for some sort of ad hoc militia action or what. Certainly the pukes at the ACLU know such things are possible.

Might be a good idea to keep our eyes on this group and see if anyone starts taking pot shots at them. You know doggone well the ACLU will blame others.

Maybe this time we can get a headstart on the problem ~ different from what happened in OK City.

I pray that some one is investigating the group that broke windows at the Silver Spring, MD recruitment center and reported to the police by Doctor Raoul.

As a veteran myself, I also consider "Veterans" for Peace" as a threat. They are just a bunch of useful idiots used by the DemocRATs to grab control of the U.S. Government. Dumbass cowards of very little intelligence. My humble opinion.

[easternsky]

There are many ways to show support of our troops. I do not consider this group as one that truly does.

More like skunks and bogus veterans for Pelosi. Would love to check the background on these characters and see how many are really Honorably Discharged veterans. Less than half in my opinion.

"Erriely familiar, a flashback to the 70's VVAW days. I wonder if the group has any radical and dangerous 'peace activits' like Scott Camil (Gainesville 8). After all, he was a decorated Vietnam vet who, to this day, admits to being serious about his plan to assassinate pro-war Senators, but never spent a day in jail for it.

"Another source is an October 20,1992, oral history interview of Scott Camil on file at the University of Florida Oral History Archive. In it, Mr.Camil speaks of his plan for an alternative to Mr. Kerry’s idea of symbolically throwing veterans’ medals over the fence onto the steps of the Capitol during the Dewey Canyon III demonstration in Washington in April of 1971.

“My plan was that, on the last day we would go into the [congressional] offices we would schedule the most hardcore hawks for last ­ and we would shoot them all,” Mr. Camil told the Oral History interviewer. “I was serious.”


OOOPS, THERE IT IS:

"In 1990, (Scott Camil) represented the Veterans for Peace organization on a fact-findingtrip to the Middle East."

"Veterans Day: Pro-Peace Films
Presented by Veterans for Peace Tampa Bay 119
Two highly acclaimed pro-peace films, "Winter Soldier" and "Sir No Sir" will be shown. Scott Camil will appear, the founder of VVAW (Vietnam Veterans Against the War) and VFP (Veterans for Peace)."

Hmm, the left, er west coast, California - has the group known as the "Weathermen" ever truly become disbanded?

[armymarinemom]

Well gosh. Maybe it was there for Sandinista support , or support for North Korea, or support for Saddam. Take your pick.

[Merta]

So that really means nothing, has the Veterans for Peace organization ever really been "stopped" they have been "watched on" supposedly by the Pentagon and the Department for Homeland Security, yet nothing has happened. I guess that President Bush is responsible for every member of those two parts of government to spy on them "sarcasm." Not only that but they call the organization a peaceful one, but one that could turn hostile. In that way, they are complimenting Veterans for Peace. The only thing that matters is watch and paranoia "sarcasm". If anybody was unlawfully jailed in the hundreds and the IRS or FBI were sent after them, that would be different, but this doesn't hold water. Only the fact that it is Super Seekrrit and proves the watching, stirs up paranoia.

I hope they are being watched. I hope the ACLU is also being watched.

New details tonight about a secret Pentagon database used to monitor anti-war protests and activists. Recently-disclosed documents reveal that some of the surveillance targets include an organization with ties to the Central Coast.
Secret Pentagon documents obtained by the American Civil Liberties Union provide details of how the organization called "Veterans for Peace" was considered a threat.

Veterans for Peace (VFP), an outgrowth of American Veterans for Peace (AVP), an antiwar group which the Communist Party had originally formed in 1951 to protest the Korean War.81 Barry joined Vietnam veterans among the VFP marchers and inquired about a banner some of them were carrying which read “Vietnam Veterans Against the War”. When Barry learned the phrase was just a slogan and there was no formal group by that name, he decided to form one. After talking with the older VFP members and studying their tactics, he recruited five Vietnam veterans from a Memorial Day VFP rally, and on June 1, 1967 the six of them held the first VVAW meeting in his apartment.82----------Hanoi John: Kerry and the Antiwar Movement’s Communist Connections Posted by Fedora On News/Activism 04/04/2005 12:20:55 AM PDT · 40 of 113

SEPTEMBER 14, 2001 : (VFP ALREADY GEARING up FOR ANTIWAR EFFORT JUST THREE DAYS AFTER 9/11 ATTACKS ON THE USA) The Veterans for Peace are about as left wing extremist as one can get. In the linked article, 3 days after 911, they were already calling for no retaliation and instead retrospection to be more "inclusive" of the rest of the world, i.e. the "we-made-em-do-it" mindset. --------17 posted on 11/13/2003 12:09:19 PM PST by Alamo-Girl
