Military Kept Eye on Abortionists, Racists During 2002 Utah Olympics

Sad:

The U.S. military monitored Planned Parenthood and a white supremacist group as part of the government’s security preparations for the 2002 Olympics in Utah, according to new documents released by the Department of Defense.

The U.S. Joint Forces Command liaison collected and disseminated information on U.S. citizens who were members of Planned Parenthood and the white supremacist group National Alliance regarding their involvement in protests and distributing literature, according to an intelligence-oversight report released by the Pentagon. The documents indicate that the JFC liaison was working with the FBI's Olympic Intelligence Center at the time.

That the government may have been monitoring potential threats just after 9/11 and may have danced on the edges of legality concerns critics.

And while some will question the legality of the monitoring, very few will question why supremacist groups may be on the radar as potential threats. Many of these same concerned citizens, however, seem appalled that Planned Parenthood was on the list of organizations being monitored.

While PP has never taken up arms to conduct killings, they've never need to do so. Founded by a eugenicist, they continue to target minority communities, accept donations to specifically abort minorities. Planned Parenthood, a sacred institution for many on the left, is likely responsible for more deaths in minority communities in any given year than all racial supremacist groups in U.S. history, but they insist on viewing them as benign.

There is something quite wrong with that.
