Fort Hood soldiers say Army warned them off tea party, Christian groups

Your question is too broad. Not sure about extremist, but there is a DoD definition for terrorist.

There is no military lesson plan dealing with groups in the US. Posse comitatus, or some latin phrase. FBI on the other hand, would natuarally because that is their charter.

However, with that said, CI and military police elements in the military will have some version (remember when I spoke about objective and audience) because of their mission to protect DoD installations. There are exceptions, but those are in small communities, and they don't conduct broad training for the general knowlege of everyone else.

But were are getting off base here. None of the training featured in the news came from an officially sanctioned lesson plan. It wasn't the Departement of the Army that sponsored it. And if it was, there would be attribution; and it would be traceable. I am dealing with the issue of systematic instruction. That's all. And it allowed me to take one look at the new report, and say to myself, "The headline is bull shiite, meant to grab attetion and sell newspapers."

What is the military’s connection to Southern Poverty Law Center, that they are on a list of sources approved by the military? What are they approved for?

[Salvavida]

None that I know of, and I don’t see why there would be a connection.

But I don't see, and we have not arrived at the point, where the Department of the Army, or any other service is winking and nodding, or putting together curriculum that would include Christians as targets of concern. So I must reject that notion. The evidence just isn't there.

I remember the last time a TEA Party member shot up an Army post and rolled a grenade into his CO’s tent. Several people lost their lives in the most horrible way. Oh and some TEA Party types blew up a street in Boston during a marathon or something.
