A Navy officer, Lt. Cmdr. John F. Sharpe, accused of involvement with anti-Semitic groups has been disciplined and faces reassignment when he returns to duty.
Earlier this year, Sharpe was accused of stating anti-Semitic and supremacist views in an article on Catholic extremists published by the Alabama-based Southern Poverty Law Center.
Sharpe, a Naval Academy graduate, was also co-editor of two books that were critical of the United States’ invasion of Iraq. The books called the war “immoral and illegal” and suggested President Bush broke international law.
