As a retired police sgt. I still receive from the Southern Christian Leadership Conf. their magazine "Intelligence Report" which is supposed to keep LEO's apprised of right wing hate groups active in the US. The last two issues have keep us dumb cops informed about how guys like Robert Spencer, a so called self educated expert, on Islamic issues. The first of the two issues was full of info. on these guys who twist the Koran out of shape to stir up hatred and increase hate crimes against Muslims. The last issue was about the threat of home grown terrorists. Of course, they couldn't print the current issue w/o another swipe at Spencer and blame him for the shooting of 70 innocents in Norway. This is a high dollar, professionally done magazine which purports to be an invaluable resource for law enforcement. It is nothing more that a propaganda tool. LEO's file 13 it.
