Conservative Tribune: As commander-in-chief, Barack Obama, through the Pentagon, has ordered U.S. troops to obey Shariah law.
Specifically, all U.S. military personnel in Muslim nations were put on notice to be familiar with host-nation customs and courtesies to help facilitate a long-lasting mutual respect with local communities. U.S. military members serving in countries that observe Ramadan are required to adhere to certain practices while outside U.S. installations.
The post also included a picture that read Respect Ramadan.
Capt. Dan Sickles, host nation officer-in-charge, told military personnel, Members should be respectful of local customs and be patient with host nation personnel. Ramadan is a countrywide religious celebration. Members should not make light of local customs and should also expect that during daylight hours host nation customer service will be abbreviated and less accommodating.

Not even a tiny chance.
In fact, we won't make it to the end of September, this year.
It is not supposed to. The muslim was put in the White House by his disciples and worshippers for one purpose and one purpose only. To totally and completely destroy the United States of America and what it stands for. And in this, aided and abetted by the Republican Party, he is succeeding. I. personally do not like it, but a majority of voters who refer to themselves as Americans have spoken by their ballots; twice in succession.
But he put the two votes on the court that want to force Americans to ignore God's laws.
Yes indeedie, the muzzies in Saudi Partyed all night then turned in at dawn to “fast “ till party time started at night! Oh the terrible deprivation and horrible self sacrifice ..NOT
Yup - they sure did.
Oh, okay. Wait, I’m lost... What in the heck are you trying to tell me?
The headline is ridiculous, and doesn’t match the article.
does that mean they should kill homosexuals? just wondering
Oh, okay. Wait, I’m lost... What in the heck are you trying to tell me?
Obeying Shariah Law - Now doesn’t that include throwing gays off of towers so they plummet to their deaths, uh, for being gay?
You mentioned being told to keep a low profile during Ramadan days pre-Obama, did you not?
I was lamenting the Hews Forum having had an annoying spate of hysterical blog headlines that don’t quite match reality.
Sorry government cannot force people to do anything. If they won’t allow it they damn well can’t force it.
I’d find any way to not do it.
Yes gays should have no respect for Christian beliefs and try to get married in churches so they can sue them out of existence.
Well, as much as I despise Obama and basically everything he’s done, I have to say this time it’s common sense, for once. When in Rome...as someone else already said.
This is prudent behavior wherever you go, whether in the military or not. Any time you go to a foreign country it’s a good idea to brush up on their customs and at least the basics of their laws, and try not to offend the local population.
For example, if local custom is to remove your shoes before entering a house, as in some oriental countries, most people don’t see any reason to object. So if you are in a country during their biggest religious celebration, try to make yourself aware of their customs and either stay in your hotel room or try to avoid offending the locals.
What our military does on base is another story, but when they leave the base and go into the public, they should be respectful of local customs, whether they agree with those customs or not. That has nothing to do with obeying Sharia law, simply respect the customs of the country you happen to be in. Don’t give them even more reason to hate Americans...
I’ve known people who worked in foreign countries, completely apart from military, who have to do the same. If your job takes you to a country where alcohol is strictly forbidden, prepare to stay sober. You’ll not only offend the locals, you’ll wind up in jail. Most foreign jails are not comfortable...
For once, and probably the only time, Obama actually got it right. You have no idea how much I hate to have to say that...
America is bowing it head and being made to surrender to this demonic personage,
This is spiritual warfare,
There is a full on demonic assault in play right now,
Sharia Law is Jude Law’s sister. Why would American troops have to follow her orders?
Because she’s a very powerful bruja.
“Members should be respectful of local customs and be patient with host nation personnel. “.
This has always been the norm with military personnel.
This is a non issue. If you are in any country you respect their practices.
I hear ya...
Good one.
