Jade Helm 15 better watch its back.
Being the hottest thing in conspiracy theories has made it the target of a group whose own fringe theories may have felt a little neglected in recent weeks.
The anti-Muslim group known as the Center for Security Policy published an article on its website on Thursday telling people not to worry about whether the military training exercise known as "Jade Helm 15" is a secret plot to institute martial law in conservative states like Texas.
Instead, the group's director of state legislative outreach, Tommy Waller, recommended that people worry about "the ACTUAL conspiracies that are firmly rooted here in America." Namely, that the Muslim Brotherhood is bringing creeping Sharia law to the U.S.
The fear-mongering about Sharia law and the Muslim Brotherhood has been the pet issue for the Center for Security Policy, which was founded by anti-Muslim activist Frank Gaffney.
