Muslims in State Department, Defense Department, and CIA debate quitting
American Thinker ^ | 12/01/2016 | Ed Straker

Muslims working in the State Department, Defense Department, and intelligence agencies like the CIA wonder if, with the election of Donald Trump, they should quit their jobs.

The employees are on edge about everything from retaining their security clearances to the possibility of discriminatory treatment under Trump, whose top aides include known peddlers of conspiracy theories about Islamists infiltrating the U.S. government.

"I feel apprehensive," a Muslim intelligence official told POLITICO. "I fear that – whatever white power movement or equivalent all of a sudden feels empowered by the president-elect, whatever tidbits of that community make their way into government – at the most basic level people who are brown, Middle Eastern, Muslim or Sikh or whatever will either be looked at with a lens of suspicion or concern, or something more overt may take place."

... [O]thers fear Trump aides may make moves that are hard to prove as being based on overt ethnic or religious discrimination, such as simply appointing fewer Muslims or other minorities to prominent posts at State, the Department of Homeland Security, the Pentagon or elsewhere.

Whose side are they on?

America? Or Islam?

They should never have been hired for these sensitive jobs, so they should be terminated by the Trump administration.

Uh, Islam is not a race, though is is a race to the bottom. Best to leave and get a job in Saudi Arabia

This country’s current love affair with Muzzies has me completely baffled. We can’t find Americans to do these jobs?

If you have to ask the question, then you have to quit.

Sikhs- fine. Muslims- OUT- OUT NOW. No conditions-no exceptions. Let the purge begin.

IMHO, most of them are Islamists first and foremost. Most were brought into the government by the Obama regime (and, a lesser number, by the “Islam is the Religion of Peace” Bush administration) to serve Islamic ends from within the government.

If they need Arabic translators, there are plenty of Arab Christians in certain neighborhoods of Detroit, Toledo and Pittsburgh.

Not this country, FWF, but this country’s ruling elites.

BTW, a true Muslim regards the Constitution as not worth the paper it is written on. Shariah is supreme.

It just goes to show that these infiltrators have no real allegiance to our nation. If they were true patriots, they would continue to do their work as Americans.

My advice is the same to ANYONE regarding changes in management at their place of employment:

If you’re not comfortable working for the new boss then quit your job and seek employment elsewhere.

This is, after all, a free country.
