I just read this report and I didn't read it the same way. They way I read it, Rightwing Extremist Organizations (skinheads and their ilk) would try to exploit conerns that might lead people to want to join them. Also, I read it that the RWEO's would try to recruit veterans who have military skills or encourage their followers to obtain military training. I don't think that is the same thing as saying veterans would be Right Wing Extremists or that anyone else who has concerns would necessarily join up with a RWEO.
These RWEOs are out there and like most organizations of this type, they try to recruit. I didn't read that the they thought that veterans would be likely to sign up; but that these orgs would like to have those skills possessed by vets.
I don't think the document was saying that anyone who had concerns about illegal immigration, gun control, changes in the economy, etc are Right Wing Extremists. We've all seen and read things about these organization and how at the very center of their beliefs is hatred and racism. And that's not the same as just being conservative and patriotic.

Go back and read it again.
