Outrageous: Army Anti-Terrorism Brief Labels Pro-Lifers, Pro-Life Groups “Terrorists” In Briefing; Will DOD Now Target Pro-Lifers?

On Thursday, the Gateway Pundit and others reported that the Biden Regime’s Defense Department is now labeling anyone opposed to abortion and groups dedicated to the pro-life movement as “terrorists.”  Right alongside ISIS and al-Qaeda.

The designation was made known during an anti-terrorism briefing held at Fort Liberty’s (formerly Fort Bragg) Directorate of Emergency Services, on Wednesday.  An image of the slide was posted to Twitter/X by citizen journalist Sam Shoemate, or @samour, on X.

The entire post reads:

Will this presidential election be the most important in American history?

An anti-terrorism brief was held on Fort Liberty (Bragg) today where they listed several Pro-Life organizations as “terrorist organizations.”

The slide you see here followed right after a slide about ISIS, a terror group in the Middle East.

The organizations labeled by the army as terror organizations include National Right to Life and Operation Rescue.

They also included a screenshot of a license plate with “IM4IT,” which is a plate many Pro-Life citizens put on their car which implies normal citizens are terrorists if they display this plate.

The slide goes on to mention activities which these organizations participate in which include being Pro-Life, opposing Row (sic) v Wade, demonstrating and protesting (a 1st Amendment protected right), “Truth Displays,” and picketing.

They also falsely attribute the bombing of abortion clinics to National Right to Life. Keep in mind they’re not labeling them as extremist organizations (which would still be crazy), but as terrorist organizations.

The military and Dept of Defense are insanely out of control. Service-members are being indoctrinated to view Pro-Life groups as the enemy.

Writing at the Gateway Pundit, Jim Hoft responded:

These organizations are dedicated to peaceful advocacy against abortion, grounded in the belief that every life is valuable and worth protecting.

The slide shockingly equates their activities, such as demonstrations, protests, mass demonstrations, Life Chain, The Rescue, The Truth Display, and picketing, along with counseling efforts at sidewalks and crisis centers, with terrorism.

It lists these legitimate forms of protest and counseling alongside heinous crimes like bombings and attempted murders.

Demonstrations, mass gatherings, and sidewalk counseling are all constitutionally protected activities under the First Amendment. Yet, this presentation portrays them in the same light as violent acts.

The pro-life movement has a rich history of non-violent advocacy, including iconic events like the March for Life, which draws hundreds of thousands of peaceful demonstrators to Washington, D.C., each year. Yet, the presentation disregards this legacy, instead painting a skewed picture that associates pro-life advocacy with violence and extremism.

Shoemate said in a follow-up the brief never mentioned Antifa:

Others responded:


Exactly. There is no other purpose for something like this.

The National Right to Life responded:

Writing at Hot Air, Beege Welborn says the powers-that-be at the Army installation have backtracked with the excuse that the slide was not properly vetted:

When word about the indoctrination leaked out, it must have caused quite a commotion because two hours ago, the Fort Liberty public affairs office issued a curt little statement on Facebook.

CLEAN-UP, AISLE FIVE

So. What that translates to is this:

Some base employee was tasked with building a security briefing for guards who man checkpoints on base, and this civilian basically inserted all the latest DEI/woke/SPLC detritus into a terrorism PowerPoint presentation, which was then presented as gospel to the troops without ever once having a set of ARMY eyeballs on it for approval.

And not one officer or SNCO had the cajones to stand up in the middle of that briefing and say, “Now wait a GOTT danged minute“?!

Completely UNSAT. Completely inexcusable.

Leadership: not observed.

And nowhere in the statement does it say that this civilian is now unemployed or even has a sore peepee from a thorough whacking. In fact, there’s no mention of any corrective action at all, other than from now on, an ARMY officer will supposedly do his/her/they/zir job and check materials before they are presented to soldiers.

We reached out to the Directorate of Emergency Services at Fort Liberty, but have not heard a response.
