Top brass crush career of Army officer who warned of jihadists
Washington Times ^ | April 28, 2013 | Rowan Scarborough

The Pentagon’s top brass has dealt another blow to a decorated Army officer who was fired last year as a war college instructor because of his teachings about radical Islam, his attorney told The Washington Times.

A four-star general’s rejection of Lt. Col. Matthew Dooley for consideration for command of a combat battalion likely means the end of a promising Army career of an armor officer who was decorated for valor in Iraq and received glowing evaluations.

Last year, Col. Dooley underwent an Army command selection board review after he was transferred from the Joint Forces Staff College in Norfolk, Va., to a weapons integration unit at Fort Eustis, Va.

The review board, comprising three generals and two colonels, voted to keep Col. Dooley as a candidate for battalion commander, his attorney, Richard Thompson, told The Times.

The board, however, was overruled by Gen. Lloyd J. Austin III, then the Army’s vice chief and now chief of U.S. Central Command. He ordered Col. Dooley’s name removed from the candidates list, said Mr. Thompson, who added that he had read the “official use only” memo.

News of Col. Dooley’s setback has emerged as some researchers of radical Islam are criticizing the Obama administration for downplaying the Islamic connection in a string of attempted and successful terrorist attacks, including the Boston Marathon bombings on April 15.

Mr. Thompson, president of the Thomas More Law Center in Michigan, said the blame for Col. Dooley’s...

Col. Dooley’s downfall began in October 2011 with a letter sent by 57 American Islamic organizations to John O. Brennan, then President Obama’s counterterrorism adviser and now CIA director.

The groups, which include two tied to the Muslim Brotherhood, which calls for global Islamic law, demanded that the government scrub its teaching on Islam. The White House complied...

My husband is a Lutheran pastor so we are in a health plan set up by the Lutheran Church - Missouri Synod. I imagine there is something similar for Catholics. Yet neither the Lutheran nor the Catholic plans can refuse to provide abortion coverage under Obamacare. We don’t have that religious liberty any more.

The Muslims do.

That tells you everything you need to know about where Obama is coming from, and what his pals in Congress are willing to go along with.

And Chief Justice John Roberts went right along with it, even though the “swing” justice was livid with him for doing it.

IOW, there is NOTHING to stop full-out sharia in America, if Obamacare is any indication.

I’m making a rare ping here, to something I don’t usually ping about. This is something critical I think we all need to realize though - to see what is at stake, and how dangerous this foreign enemy combatant in the White House really is, and where he is taking us.

Enemies both foreign and domestic are deeply rooted in all branches of this regime. It might take decades to fumigate this country in the post-2016 era. The termites have eaten the White Crib from the inside out.

the White Crib

That includes all the millions of parasites "union-thug payrollees" in all the departments and agencies of the federal executive branch.

They have been RAT infested for ever and only radical surgery can affect that.

They truly are the enemy within.

Even at the state and local level, bureaucRATs are the enemies of the people.

” - - - chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Gen. Dempsey publicly condemned Col. Dooley’s teachings - - - “

This public action by General Dempsey is an act of a coward.

All business and management schools agree that public criticism of an employee is the surest indicator of a lack of courage in confronting an employee in private, IOW, cowardice.

The Benghazi Coward in Chief B. Hussein Obama, aka Barry Soetoro, a legal citizen of Indonesia, routinely uses this same method of cowardly management, but calls it “framing.”

It would appear that this Gen. Lloyd J. Austin III, is one of the Generals left that told Obama he had no qualms about going to war with Civilians in America.

In order to reach the rank of General in Obama’s military you have to first agree that having queers in the military and Combat for women is fine, and then you have to agree to turn the military on Civilians.

The destruction of America is Obama’s dream and he has plenty of help in doing it. Both in Congress and in the Military.

Men like this do not crush easily. Look at Tony Shaffer. If he wants to carry on, he will in spite of whatever odds are against him because these guys are made of sterner stuff.

Your statements most likely echo the same many Freepers have on this issue. We are literally being taken over from within.

Col. Dooley is pursuing an administrative appeal inside the Army. If that fails, his grievance will be decided in federal court/

Any bets on him following Lakin's footsteps right to a cell in Leavenworth?

Butter, here’s what mostly happened. On January 14, 2009, one week before the saddest day in American history, January 20, when an illegal alien stole the White Hut. On 1/9-09 there was a “secret” meeting with SCOTUS, unreported, where possibly the Chicago-GODFATHER-Thugs-like took John Roberts aside, “whispering softly in his ears... remember you have small children, don’t you?” So just be careful at what you do, and later he discovered what happened to Bill Gwatney and Andrew Breitbart keeling over on the street from “natural” causes. Happened on March 1st. last year, the same day after talking with Sheriff Arpaio and HIS presser that day.

John Roberts and other judges were publicly humiliated at a SOUA where all the DNC Ass-clowns gave a standing ovation enough for Roberts to endorsing obamaScare. From that day on in January 2009 EVERYbody and EVERYwhere went mute and muzzlinged from SCOTUS and all the way down, CONgress, States, Municipalities, law enforcment, all media and even the military!!!

“The biggest HOAX ever perpetrated on the American people.” Do you get it???
