IHS Press is a publishing house based in Virginia that is designated as a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC).[1][2]
The name "
IHS Press is chaired by John Sharpe.[citation needed] Sharpe was the public affairs officer for the USS Carl Vinson, an aircraft carrier, when the Navy investigated him in 2007 after reports of anti-Semitic activities, according to the SPLC.[3] The Navy reassigned him and reprimanded him for criticisms of President George W. Bush and the Iraq War in IHS books he had edited, but not for anti-Semitism, according to the SPLC.[4] The SPLC said Sharpe also ran another hate group, the Legion of St. Louis,[5] and was on the board of the St. George Educational Trust, described as a radical British Catholic group.[3]
In 2005, IHS Press launched an imprint, Light in the Darkness Publications (LID), which published Neo-Conned!, a two volume compendium of essays opposing the Iraq War.[third-party source needed]
