Muslim chaplain probe demanded
world net daily ^ | April 24, 2008

Rep. Sue Myrick, R-N.C., says the Pentagon has failed to vet properly the Muslim chaplains ministering to U.S forces since it first set up its Muslim chaplain corps 15 years ago.

The military chaplains were approved by a convicted terrorism supporter who at the time headed the American Muslim Council. Abdurahman Alamoudi is now serving a 23-year prison sentence on federal terrorism charges.

The U.S. Department of Treasury in 2005 announced in a statement that "Alamoudi had a close relationship with al-Qaida and had raised money for al-Qaida in the United States."

According to Myrick, the chaplains he sponsored have not been re-screened since his sentencing.

"Alamoudi placed Muslim chaplains throughout the military. He is now in jail on charges of terrorism," she said. "The chaplains to my knowledge are still in their current positions."

[...]

Since 9/11, several federal translators have been charged with espionage-related crimes, according to Paul Sperry, author of "Infiltration: How Muslim Spies and Subversives Have Penetrated Washington."

Myrick complains that the FBI, desperate to hire Arabic-speaking translators and agents, is currently recruiting candidates through pro-jihad publications, organizations and even mosques connected to the radical Muslim Brotherhood.

As part of her 10-point agenda, Myrick also plans to ask the Internal Revenue Service to investigate the Council on American-Islamic Relations' non-profit status, which restricts lobbying on behalf of foreign governments.

U.S. prosecutors say CAIR, which receives financing from Saudi and UAE sheiks, is a foreign-funded front for the Muslim Brotherhood and Hamas. The Brotherhood has a stated objective of destroying America from within, and Hamas is an officially designated terrorist group.

U.S. prosecutors last year named the Washington-based CAIR an unindicted co-conspirator in a scheme to funnel more than $12 million to Hamas suicide bombers and their families.

There are a lot of jihadis here. They have to be found and deported.

Some of us had CAIR figured out a long time ago.

Cheers,

Three cheers for Sue Myrick. But it ain’t gonna happen.

Not in a million years would Nancy Pelosi allow it, or Harry Reid. Not in a million years would George Bush allow it, or hillary clinton, or Holy Hussein, or John McManiac.

Not one of those key people would do it. It would be too politically incorrect for them to permit it.

How long can a nation hope to survive when it hires supporters of it's deadliest enemies to enforce it's laws, and recruits agents of it's enemies' murderous religion to give spiritual advice and comfort to it's military and naval personnel who are actively fighting a shooting war against the fundamentalist branches of that same religion? And that doesn't even touch on the matter of hundreds of fundamentalist Muslim clerics who are being allowed to entice embittered Afro-American inmates in our prisons and jails to convert to Islam and join Islamic terrorist cells when they are released.

Political correctness will eventually be the death or our nation. Why don't we just get it over with and send Achminiginojab or whatever his name a note saying "come on over, we can hardly wait to hand our nation over to you"?

The sad thing is that this type of thing, as well as the requirement to provide services for just about anything people decide to call a religion, could well spell the end of the chaplain corps.
