PENTAGON LIST OF EXTREMISM EXPERTS INCLUDES ANTI-MUSLIM AND CONSERVATIVE CHRISTIAN GROUPS

A PENTAGON WORKING GROUP established in the wake of the January 6 Capitol riot to root out domestic extremists has circulated a list of prospective partners that includes representatives of a conservative Christian group and an anti-Muslim extremism group, according to an internal Defense Department document obtained exclusively by The Intercept. In several cases, these potential partners were themselves involved in the misidentification of Muslims as terrorists.
