[quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous]The SPLC has ZERO-POINT-ZERO credibility, Jeff. None. Zip. Nada. Even the Obama Justice Dept had to distance itself from their lunacy.

Dees and Potok are just shakedown artists and con men.

Do you want to argue that the Council on Security Policy is not a hate group? The SPCL is hardly the focus of this thread. You can read the information they have collected because that makes it easy to find. Or, you can do your own research. These are the looniest fringe of the loonies. They actually campaigned to get Grover Norquist kicked off the NRA board because they think he's in league with jihadists.

I believe it's fair to say that the SPLC is a focus of this thread if it's the source of what you're citing.

You wouldn't assign any credibility to infowars, would you? (Probably the only thing we'd ever agree on, btw, ha!). Citing the SPLC is basically the polar-opposite. Just as crazy, off the other end of the curve. [/quote]

I provided two sources, but I've also suggested that you look into the groups yourself. Your ignoring the focus of the thread -- which I guess I have to remind you is two former leaders of hate groups being appointed National Security Advisor and his chief of staff -- and trying to argue about the SPLC tells a lot about your priorities. You ignore the ADL completely and don't say anything about the actual topic of this thread.

Bash the SPLC all you want, but they provide this quote from the Center for Security Policy:

[quote]“So pervasive now is the MB’s [Muslim Brotherhood’s] ‘civilization jihad’ within the U.S. government and civil institutions that a serious, sustained and rigorous investigation of the phenomenon by the legislative branch is in order. To that end, we need to establish a new and improved counterpart to the Cold War-era’s HUAC [House Un-American Activities Committee] and charge it with examining and rooting out anti-American – and anti-constitutional – activities that constitute an even more insidious peril than those pursued by communist Fifth Columnists fifty years ago. ”
–column, Center for Security Policy website,  2011[/quote]

Oh, look! Here that quote is, right on the Center for Security Policy's website just like the SPLC said:

https://www.centerforsecuritypolicy.org/2011/07/19/anti-american-activities-a-cold-war-style-effort-to-root-out-civilizational-jihad-2/

So, the SPLC wasn't completely off its rocker.

Anyway, these loony tunes think that the US government has been infiltrated by jihadists such as Grover Norquist and we need a House Un-American Activities Committee to root them out. These are the people providing Trump national security advice. But, let's ignore all of this and argue about the SPLC.
