Visiting Assistant Professor Kyndra Rotunda published an op-ed for the Christian Science Monitor entitled, “US soldiers are heroes, not terrorists.”  The piece discusses the Department of Homeland Security’s recent declaration that American soldiers returning from Iraq and Afghanistan are at risk of becoming domestic terrorists.  Professor Rotunda writes, ” The Homeland Security report is conspicuously light on evidence to back up its shocking claim. Lacking hard data, the report relies on words like ‘may,’ ‘potential,’ and ‘no specific information’ to propel its argument. Its leading point seems to be that ‘skills and knowledge derived from military training and combat’ somehow make vets likely to attack a country they risked their lives to defend.”
