WASHINGTON, March 13 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The nation's largestpro-troop organization, Move America Forward will hold a news conference this Friday, March 14, 2008, calling attention to, and denouncing, the rising trend of violence against military recruiting centers. The news conference takes place in the Murrow Room at the National Press Club in Washington, D.C. on Friday, March 14th at 9:30 AM.
Move America Forward will provide detailed accounts of these attacks, including photographs and documents, to members of the media in attendance. A new national television ad campaign calling attention to these attacks will also be unveiled.
Attacks on military recruiting centers include shots fired at offices (as happened in Denver, Colorado), bombs planted (a real one in St. Louis, fake ones in Oregon and the detonated explosion at the Times Square recruiting center), windows smashed, manure dumped on recruiting offices, human blood and feces smeared on the offices, recruiters cars have been firebombed (in Alabama and Maryland).
Now, how many of you had any idea it was this bad? The explosion in NYC had to happen right in the middle of Times Square to rate major coverage. Out in flyover country, this concerted campaign of sabotage is met only with the usual media whitewash about "isolated incidents," and "peaceful protests." Imagine what would happen if the targets were mosques rather than military facilities. Recruiting offices are the Fort Sumter of the twenty-first century.
