Military says components ‘ no vetted,’ ‘ will no longer become used’
Two pro-life businesses were described as “terrorist groups” in a U.S. Army basic training presentation, according to a watchdog report that the military confirmed.
The instruction material was part of an “anti-terrorism small” at Fort Liberty, previously Fort Bragg, in North Carolina, separate journalist Sam Shoemate reported on X. The assessment date is not specified in the report.
According to the image, a drop shown to men described two pro-life companies, National Right to Life and Operation Rescue, as “terrorist parties”.
It also “falsely attribute]d ] the bombing of abortion clinics to National Right to Life”, the report states.
An anti-terrorism brief was held on Fort Liberty ( Bragg ) today where they listed several Pro-Life organizations as “terrorist organizations”.

Additionally, the slide displayed an image of unique pro-life license plates, which are present in several states. According to Decide Life America, the organization that promotes them, the proceeds go toward providing maternity support services to people in want.
However, the slip suggested the specialist plates are things troops should watch for as a possible sign of a criminal, according to Shoemate’s statement.
Soldiers who were present at the display claimed that the drop was shown right after another about ISIS, and that the presentation never addressed the group, according to the report.
In a speech posted on social media late on Thursday, Fort Liberty confirmed the authenticity of the drop. The roll was stated as being no longer used.
A “local military staff” created the presentation” to teach Soldiers maintaining access control points at Fort Liberty”, according to the statement.
” After conducting a general’s investigation, we determined that the presentations presented on social media were no vetted by the appropriate acceptance government, and do not reflect the views of the XVIII Airborne Corps and Fort Liberty, the U. S. Army or the Department of Defense”, the military center stated. “… all upcoming training products will be reviewed to ensure they comply with the current DoD anti-terrorism guidance.”
National Right to Life described the slide as “lazy scholarship” that promoted “outright lies” in a statement online. It noted the presentation misspelled the name of the U. S. Supreme Court’s 1973 abortion decision Roe v. Wade.
” The Biden Administration promotes the deaths of preborn babies and advocates for unlimited abortion, but peaceful pro-life Americans are labeled’ terrorists,'” it stated.
The national pro-life organization stated it “always, constantly, and unequivocally” condemns violence “against anyone”.
In addition, a University of Maryland center earlier this year, The College Fix reported that two members of Students for Life of America were included in its terrorism database. They were later taken out by the university.
Military academies also have been accused of going woke by embracing “diversity, equity”, and “inclusion” efforts and teaching cadets critical race theory.
In 2022, the U. S. Military Academy at West Point began removing references to Confederate leaders, including General Robert E. Lee, a former superintendent of the school, The Fix reported at the time.
