Gordon Dwight "Jack" Mohr (January 1, 1916 – July 17, 2003), was a Christian Identity author and preacher who is considered to be an influential figure in the Christian Patriot movement.[1]
Early life and military service[]
Gordon Dwight Mohr was born in Chicago on January 1, 1916.
Mohr enlisted in the United States Army during the early days of World War II. He retired in 1964 as a Lieutenant Colonel.[2]
Far-right militia movement[]
Mohr was the leader of the Citizens Emergency Defense System, a paramilitary group exclusive to White Christians. The group was considered to be a militant subgroup of the Christian Patriots Defense League - an anti-Semitic survivalist organization based in Illinois.[3][4]
Views and writings[]
The majority of Mohr's works expressed anti-communist views.[5][6] He also criticized the Freemasons.[7]
Additionally, Mohr was a promoter of Christian Identity religion and The Protocols of the Elders of Zion, a fabricated antisemitic text purporting to describe a Jewish plan for global domination.
Mohr wrote for many publications, including his own Christian Patriot Crusader. One 1986 article has been credited with influencing a Seattle man who, after failing to arrange a meeting with Mohr, went on to murder a family of four.[8]
