US Army defines Christian ministry as 'domestic hate group'
Fox News ^ | October 14, 2013 | Todd Starnes

Several dozen U.S. Army active duty and reserve troops were told last week that the American Family Association, a well-respected Christian ministry, should be classified as a domestic hate group because the group advocates for traditional family values. The briefing was held at Camp Shelby in Mississippi and listed the AFA alongside domestic hate groups like the Ku Klux Klan, Neo-Nazis, the Black Panthers and the Nation of Islam. A soldier who attended the briefing contacted me and sent me a photograph of a slide show presentation that listed AFA as a domestic hate group. Under the AFA headline is a photograph of Westboro Baptist Church preacher Fred Phelps holding a sign reading “No special law for f***.” American Family Association has absolutely no affiliation with the controversial church group known for picketing the funerals of American servicemembers. It looks like the Obama administration is separating the military from the American people. “I had to show Americans what our soldiers are now being taught,” said the soldier who asked not to be identified.

They are doing an Erdogan style purge right now. The top nuclear general was just fired.

We just hate. They ridicule, enforce their will on others, and assasinate people that don’t agree with them so I guess I’d rather be in the “hate” category...

“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?... The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If...if...We didn't love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation.... We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.”

― Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn

And a Navy admiral in charge of nuclear weapons.

Obama continues to position himself for nasty events.

The Prince of Peace, Love and Forgiveness is head of a "hate group"? Anyone doubt that Baraq Hussein 0bama is the antiCHRIST?

Not hard to do when you demote or remove everyone around you that stands in your way. Its like a soccer mom going Tonya Harding on all the other team members.

Maybe they will have a special healthcare waiting list for non-dems. Politics is really becoming a blood sport in the USA.

Having traditional family values is no longer welcome in the U.S. military. Only perverts are welcome.

If I or a family member was in the military, I would leave when the opportunity arises, unless and until this changes.

Another briefing told officers to pay close attention to troops who supported groups like AFA and the Family Research Council.

One officer said the two Christian ministries did not “share our Army Values.”

“When we see behaviors that are inconsistent with Army Values – don’t just walk by – do the right thing and address the concern before it becomes a problem,” the officer wrote in an email to his subordinates.

This thought control mantra ‘don't walk by’ is obviously being propagated from the top in DOD as I have seen it displayed in train the trainer presentations for the USN and USCG. This clearly means merely having traditional views is unacceptable, or that is what is trying to be done. Homosexuals remain a tiny part of the total force but they are being used as Alinsky style wedge issue to deligitimatize a much bigger set of moral concepts and the philosophical world view of traditional Christians.

The consequences of ending Don’t ask don’t tell is Christians being targeted.
Hagel joining with rabid atheists brought this about too.
