The Federal Bureau of Investigation earlier this year launched a nationwide operation targeting white supremacists and "militia/sovereign-citizen extremist groups," including a focus on veterans from Iraq and Afghanistan, according to memos sent from bureau headquarters to field offices.
The initiative, dubbed Operation Vigilant Eagle, was outlined in February, two months before a memo giving a similar warning was issued on April 7 by the Department of Homeland Security.
Disclosure of the DHS memo this week has sparked controversy among some conservatives and veterans groups. Appearing on television talk shows Thursday, Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano defended the assessment, but apologized to veterans who saw it as an accusation.

But it was an accusation. She either meant it or she didn’t, but it was what it was.
was outlined in February by POR (pelosi,reid,obama)?
Pres__ent Obama befriends ANY enemy that bombs the Pentagon
or attacks America or Americans, as he guts every sliver of American security and pride.
This "report" (propaganda preceding a final coup by the Left) is disgusting.
“Apology” Napolitano-style:
“So sorry you perceived it that way.”
“Thanks for your input.”
They should not wish too hard, they may get what they are looking for. The more they piss people off like this, the more they will find people will act on a not simply perceived threat but an actual threat.
The biggest extremist of them all is the president, elected by the 52% of the voter population too stupid to know better.....and to a certain extent by conservatives who stayed home to protest Juan McQueeg. I agree that voting for McCain was one of the hardest things I ever did....but I held my nose to keep this 0bamination out of the WH....Better a moronic moderate than the current Turd-in-chief.
This administration is shameful. The drool by media may eventually get what’s coming to them. Remember when they said that the purpose of the press was to oppose the administration? The expression “effete intellectual” comes to mind. The liberals keep trying the same socialist agenda over and over again with the same result. Is that not the definition of insanity?
While vets are being investigated, Islamofascists are plotting.
My government seems to hate me and all that believe in the same things that I do.
LLS
Sorry Mama
I is a stewpid rednek terrist and prowd of it!
This administration will be sorry when veterans vote .......ballot box first !
Who ordered the investigation??
As I understand the procedures, the FBI does such investigations only by order from the DOJ or WH, not Homeland Security.
Well while the dopes are watching the young vets, the old vets and their wives can organize. Thanks for the cover young bloods. ;)
Everybody is missing the boat.
Again.
What if she’s correct?
This means that O’s plans—undisclosed so far—would meet armed resistance if they ever got out too soon. She’s targeting those who would be most likely to resist, is all.
So, WATCHA GOT IN STORE FOR US, JANET??
I thought profiling was illegal.
Actually you are missing somethings.
1. They need us as their slaves so we can produce for their failed state solutions.
2. The producers are the most capable adversaries.
3. We were able to evade getting a criminal record, generally were able to keep ourselves straight, held job(s), raised children, and otherwise be mostly responsible. These are the most dangerous people on earth when they decide to go Irish.
4. Yes, the DHS was right on when it mentioned lone wolves. Oh for a hundred thousand of them.
Now, I got it off my chest and can go enjoy the sunny 70ish day. May obummer go down in history as the beginning of the end for liberal progressive $h!thead$.
Those who did so need to face that THEY elected Obama. Had all those not liberal, democrat, communist, etc voted for McCain Obama WOULD NOT be in office.
In stupidity or selfishness to the tune of “it's my vote to use as I please, and I will NOT vote for McCain”, they doomed our country for several generations.
Oh, and it will be several generations running past even a single term of O. The left is firmly implanted in ALL administrations and bureaus of our government. The presidency of bHo will ensure it grows stronger every month.
Acorn will now take part in our census, the global warming kooks will set the tone of our science and energy policy, and 2 or more SCOTUS justices will be retiring under O’s term... even if it is a single term. Doctors must choose between not getting paid if they don't do abortions or working at a hospital that takes federal money (ALL OF THEM). We are headed to government run health care. And those are but a start to what you did.
It is WORSE than many of us feared, and that many more who hold out hope that we can “live” with a single term. It will take more than a miracle and any single personality like even a Reagan could give us. The election was a country changer.. it has done so already in just 4 months!!!
Romney, Huck, Thompson, Giuliani... ANY would have been better than what the selfish among us gave the country by ELECTING bHo. Yes THEY ELECTED HIM BY PLAYING THEIR TEEN GAMES of “I won't vote unless the candidate I want is on the ballot”.
Thanks fools, you got your wish to not elect what you thought was any of the “less than perfect” candidates.
Do you have no right to complain about the glorious leader YOU put in office? Don't answer this post, tell your children and grandchildren.
Thanks again. Read my tagline, it has been nearly the same for almost a year. Think about it 40 years (or more) from now.
if we can get this guy out in 4 years and I do expect that and a Republican rebound in the House and Senate in 2 and 4 years, and if the conservative Supremes stay healthy....no change there.
the big problem I see is the federal circuit courts the turd in chief will try to stuff with euro-mimicing justices...
and let me repeat again you are right about the jackasses who did not vote and cut off their noses to spite their faces.
While veterans are being investigated, ACORN steals another election.
