It just occurred to me that the global counterinsurgency project Kyle Burke writes about in REVOLUTIONARIES FOR THE RIGHT was basically accomplishing the dream of a right-wing Abraham Lincoln Battalion.
I'm working on a conference paper trying to trim and consolidate some of my Franco material from my dissertation, connecting it to some of the scholarship on the later periods, and... yeah.

To the point where paramilitary organizations that were formed for counterinsurgency operations against communists and Islamic radicals are now being deployed as auxiliaries by a fascistic U.S. government in American cities.
