NY Times: Hate Groups Are Infiltrating the Military, Group Asserts

This is creepy.
    A decade after the Pentagon declared a zero-tolerance policy for racist hate groups, recruiting shortfalls caused by the war in Iraq have allowed "large numbers of neo-Nazis and skinhead extremists" to infiltrate the military, according to a watchdog organization.
Short on recruits? No problem for the Bush administration.

Our government is training hate groups, potential domestic terrorists, in modern warfare, at public expense. Brilliant.
    Department of Defense investigator Barfield confirmed that threat assessment. "Today's white supremacists in the military become tomorrow's domestic terrorists once they're out," he said. "There needs to be a tighter focus on intercepting the next Timothy McVeigh before he becomes the next Timothy McVeigh."
