Bruce Hoffman and Jacob Ware penned a book that centers on “far-right terrorism” in America. Their book follows its history in the U.S. from the Ku Klux Klan to the January 6, 2021, Capitol riot. Pentagon staff overseeing special operations and irregular warfare were invited to hear these individuals talk about their book, “God, Guns, and Sedition: Far-Right Terrorism in America.”<\/p>\n

From The Daily Caller:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

“This is the first of what we hope will be a series of brown bag events featuring internal and external speakers,” it said, and was signed by the “FO Team.”<\/p>\n

The reminder included a brief description of the book and links to the author’s biographies in documents on the internal office drive.<\/p>\n

“Serious acts of terrorism have erupted from violent American far-right extremists in recent years, including the 2015 mass murder at a historic Black church in Charleston and the January 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol,” the book synopsis, which was also included in the email, read.<\/p>\n

“They are the latest flashpoints in a process that has been unfolding for decades, in which vast conspiracy theories and radical ideologies such as white supremacism, racism, antisemitism, xenophobia, and hostility to government converge into a deadly threat to democracy,” it said. “This talk, derived from the speakers’ new book, God, Guns, and Sedition (Columbia Univ. Press) discusses the rise of far-right terrorism in the United States, the impact of U.S. domestic terrorism on our foreign policy and our allies, and policy recommendations to counter far-right terrorism.”<\/p>\n

The email did not explain why domestic terrorism, a problem outside of the DOD’s purview, was selected as the topic for the first book talk or who approved it. The DOD didn’t respond to the DCNF’s request for comment.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
