Neo-Nazi's in Iraq

[TRUTH]

"We've got Aryan Nations graffitti in Baghdad. . . that's a problem," a Defense Department investigator is quoted as saying in a new report. Neo-Nazi groups have long sought to place members in the U.S. armed forces, as a way to train them on the use of weapons and explosives for the "race war" they believe is imminent. The Pentagon has had a ten-year declared "zero tolerance" policy towards such volunteers -- but the report, from the domestic terror-tracking Southern Policy Law Center, says pressure on recruiters as a result of the Iraq war has led to violent racists getting accepted -- and trained, and deployed.

The report quotes Scott Barfield, a Defense Department investigator, saying, "Recruiters are knowingly allowing neo-Nazis and white supremacists to join the armed forces, and commanders don't remove them from the military even after we positively identify them as extremists or gang members."
