The report did no such thing ! Anyone reading it would know that statement was - to put it charitably - a misrepresentation.
The report said radical extremists MIGHT TRY to recruit veterans - and they indeed have. A friend of mine, who was privy to to sensitive military material, was “courted” for almost a year by militia wannabees, who wanted access.
I can see where the wannabees might be upset !
The report also stated “The possible passage of new restrictions on firearms and the return of military veterans facing significant challenges reintegrating into their communities could lead to the potential emergence of terrorist groups or lone wolf extremists capable of carrying out violent attacks.”
No recruitment necessary according to this. In my interpretation “potential emergence of terrorist groups” meaning that veterans could start their own groups and “lone wolf extremists” i.e. not being part of any organization.
As a veteran who’s done my time, I consider this an insult as I, my brothers and sisters in arms and our predecesors have been the guardians of this country and will continue to do so.
