Americas top military officer condemned in the strongest possible terms a Defense Department course that taught troops to prep for a total war on Islam using Hiroshima-style tactics.
It was totally objectionable, against our values and it wasnt academically sound, Army Gen. Martin Dempsey, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, told reporters at a Pentagon press conference on Thursday. The instructor responsible for the course, Army Lt. Col. Matthew A. Dooley, is no longer in a teaching status, Dempsey added but he is still employed at the Joint Forces Staff College in Norfolk, Va
Dempsey and his deputy for military education, Marine Lt. Gen. George Flynn, pulled the plug on the course last month. The general said he was quite thankful for an unnamed military officer who brought word of the anti-Islam material to his attention.

During WWII I remember all the posters of buck-toothed four-eyed Japanese and drooling blood-thirsty Germans the govt to dehumanize the enemy and motivate people to work harder or buy war bonds.
But with this crowd in D.C., we could be in an overt full-bore war with the Muslims and they still wouldn’t use anything that might be deemed “offensive”.
When in the history of history has any tribe, group, nation allowed its enemies to make the rules - ESPECIALLY military rules ???
God help us - our leaders are insane !!!
The apostles creed is catholic. Lots of Christians have never said it.
"The apostles creed is catholic."Really???? How odd, we recite it in the Methodist church, the Episcopalians recite it, in fact most organized Christian churches do so. It may be of Catholic origin, but it is not "Catholic."
>> The apostles creed is catholic. Lots of Christians have never said it.
Yeah, and lots of Christians love Elvis and Obama just as much as they love Jesus.
Romney needs to do a thorough housecleaning of all the Obama hacks, not what George W. did, playing the nice guy reaching across the aisle. The Democrats have always known that it is war, only our clueless Republicans try to play nice with them.
I was raised Missouri Synod Lutheran and the Apostles Creed was right up there with the Lord's Prayer.
Just checked, the ninth line was edited to read "holy Christian Church" instead of "holy catholic Church".
On reading further I found this:
"The Apostles' Creed is an early statement of Christian belief, a creed or "symbol". It is widely used by a number of Christian denominations for both liturgical and catechetical purposes, most visibly by liturgical Churches of Western tradition, including the Latin Rite of the Catholic Church, Lutheranism, Anglicanism, and Western Orthodoxy. It is also used by Presbyterians, Methodists, and Congregationalists."

Yes, we would be better off if that monstrous theocratic ideology were contained in its own yard.
The last “Cultural Awareness” class I went to here at Fort Carson was entertaining. A muslim was telling us about muslim culture and asked if we had any questions. Numerous Soldiers asked very blunt questions such as “Why do muslims treat their women like crap?” and “Why should we respect muslim culture when they want to kill infidels as it tells them in the koran?” or one statement by an NCO “I already know about muslim culture and it sucks.”
The muslim was rather uncomfortable and one of our officers ended the class at that point.
