The American Family Association, a conservative Christian group, has published an article on its website calling for Muslims to be barred from military service. It it is time to stop the practice of allowing Muslims to serve in the U.S. military.
all for it
Why stop there? Ban muslims in America.
Good idea. Let’s start with the CIC.
It’s a great idea. Not that it’ll gain traction, but it’s a great idea.
Personally, I could get behind a ban on Muslims from LIFE.
Bad idea...we welcome all soldiers willing to fight for our country....what needs to be done is what FBI and CIA are supposed to do...thourough background checks....hey you got friends in Alqueda , its a no go....right now we are so lax with security checks.
Conservative Christian Group? Who...i love the way they throw that around....Who? And really only the military can decide.
Me thinks we can do without them.
We have plenty of Converts on the Ground in Iraq and Afghan.
We need to limit to American loyal Muslims......converted Via Freedom......not Coverted via Terrorist loyalties.
Get em all out and start with the Imam In Chief!
And please, let's start with our POTUS...and throw out Pelosi and Reid just for fun...oh, and Rangle just because.
Unconstitutional. American citizens have rights, which should be defended, no matter what. That is why we must be exceedingly careful whom we allow to become citizens.

Works for me. Now when will Congress bar any more Muslim immigration? How many of us are going to have to die before Congress gets around to barring any more Muslim immigration? Congress? Congress? Crickets.
We are importing them in faster than Chinese products.
You would figure with a WOT, and us fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan, that we wouldn’t allow them in, but we are.
So we fight them overthere so we can import them in to fight them over here.
Friend in New Orleans told me some 25,000 will be living there in the next three years. All from Iraq.
We never learn.
I call for a ban on ALL religious fanatics in the military. If only our armed forces were as aggressively secular and nationalistic as the upper echelons of the Turkish armed forces...
Well said...if you don't believe in God (our God) then you don't believe in our country.
Many people do not remember what was required once upon a time to get into this great country...You could seek sanctuary from the U.S. if your country did what to you?
If they can’t be banned then they should all be put in one company where they can be watched.
No, but certainly those who spout jihadi sentiments as Nidal did.
Only if one considers Islam to be a religion.
I do not.
I’d say it’s unamerican to ban them from the military or the US but that implies that you’re doing something against AMERICANS or someone who want to be AMERICAN. But when you have a subset that doesn’t ever want to be American, doesn’t want to assimilate then I don’t consider it unamerican. I bet most muslims consider themselves to be muslims first then their country of origin then maybe American (i.e. “I’m a muslim from Jordan now living in the US.”). There’s no loyalty, no trust there.
Doing a background check gets you squat. Hasan became extremist AFTER he was in the military. So does the military start doing revolving security checks on EVERY single member of the military every other 6 months? How feasible is that?
Odd, I went to their website, and they had an article AGAINST it......
