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.

If they didn’t quit before Trump, they may as well do it now in order to appear steadfast and sanctimonious, because they will be fired 1/21/2017

I already look at muzztards with a lens of suspicion. They've earned it. The rest I couldn't care less about.

At a minimum, give them all lie detector tests.

Lie detectors don’t work on full blown sociopaths or those from a culture that has lying as a cornerstone of their faith. No guilt, no stress, no physio changes for instruments to pickup.

If they really have infiltrated the U.S. government, then I guess it's not a "conspiracy theory", right?

Islamists who have infiltrated the U.S. government are concerned about Trump top aides that
‘include known peddlers of conspiracy theories about Islamists infiltrating the U.S. government.’
