Obama's Army Says Christians are Worst Terrorists
Whistleblowers have publicized the U.S. Army Reserve Equal Opportunity training brief titled Extremism and Extremist Organizations, a Gay Agenda propaganda document packed with anti-Christian rhetoric from the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) -- an organization that classifies every Bible-believing Christian as a dangerous bigot, and much of Scripture as "hate speech."
In contrast, the Obama Administration has refused to classify as a terrorist Maj. Nidal Hasan, who yelled Allahu Akbar before shooting dozens of soldiers at Ft. Hood in November 2009, and who is awaiting trial as a common murderer.

As the White House announced May 15 that acting IRS Commissioner Steven Miller would resign in the wake of revelations that the tax agency had targeted conservative groups, news has surfaced that the tax-exempt status of prominent Christian organizations had also been targeted.
Even as the president was assuring the American people, more revelations were coming out about the extent of the targeting of organizations that could be broadly categorized as opposing the Obama agenda. Among the organizations the IRS investigated and audited were the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association (BGEA) and the 180-year-old Baptist newspaper the Biblical Recorder, published by the North Carolina Baptist State Convention. The IRS reportedly also targeted the humanitarian relief group Samaritan's Purse. Both it and the BGEA are run by Franklin Graham, son of famed evangelical preacher Billy Graham.
