Does anyone remember the memo issued by Department of Homeland Security chief Janet Napolitano in April? The one that warned of the dangers of right-wing extremism among soldiers returning from Afghanistan and Iraq?
I’ve Googled my fingers to the bone today and can’t find any instances of this as-much-as-predicted right-wing extremism. I certainly I haven’t found any that compares to the Muslim Army officer who yesterday murdered 13 people at Fort Hood. But Muslim extremism was not mentioned in the April memo. The danger would come, said Napolitano, from soldiers, who, in her view, are strangely susceptible to entreaties from right-wing extremists to join their nefarious bands. Not a word, though, about the entreaties of global jihad to Muslims in the military.
Yes, the security of homeland is in good hands.
