Army Chief of Staff Concerned for Muslim Troops

Posted on 11/08/2009 11:16:36 AM PST by Loyalist

General George Casey Jr., the Army chief of staff, said on Sunday that he was concerned that speculation about the religious beliefs of Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan, accused of killing 12 fellow soldiers and one civilian and wounding 30 0thers in a shooting rampage at Fort Hood, could “cause a backlash against some of our Muslim soldiers.”

“I’ve asked our Army leaders to be on the lookout for that,” General Casey said in an interview on CNN’s “State of the Union. “It would be a shame — as great a tragedy as this was — it would be a shame if our diversity became a casualty as well.”

I’m going to vomit.

He’s concerned about MUSLIMS??????

He’s either a total idiot or a traitor.

A normal non-traitor in his position would be concenred about non-Muslims being slaughtered by Muslims in the military. And he’d do something about it.

I think I see where this thing is headed.

I anticipate American military policy, led by our Muslin POTUS to begin showing favoritism for Muslims in the service. I would watch for policy changes such as, if you are Muslim, you do not have to be deployed in south Asia nor should it place them in a conscientious objector status thereby unduly risking their performance evaluations.

They’ll begin to favor more Islamic military within the continental US and send those with other religious affiliations into harms’ way.

I AGREE WITH YOUR POINTS.

This was a total screw up from the Army and the FBI...Gen Casey should be apologzing to the country, not giving us a lecture. what kind of an Army is he running that this can happen???

Hassan TOLD everyone who he was for months and months, this would not be ‘profiling”..You don’t need to profile when someone comes up to you and in large public venues says, “Hey I think what the Jhihadis are doing is noble!” They ask me at the airport if I left my bag laying around, but Gen Casey’s Brass can’t corrale a flaming Terrorist who tells you he IS!??

We still need loyal Muslims, translators, cultural info, etc. There would be NO problem with a Muslim soldier IF the Asssshats had just done something about this Self Professed Radical!

The Germans didn’t attack us the way the Japanese did. In fact Hitler showed considerable restraint in the face of our overt aid to Great Britain. Ourfleet was badly crippled. There was nothing except the lack of a desire to do so, or logistics or his failure to bag our carriers, that kept Yamamoto’s fleet from sailing to the West Coast and attacking our ports. Those in the know were in a panic, and rightly so. I am gratified that most Japanese stayed loyal, especially those in Hawaii, and a feel for the many injustices done to them by opportunists, but such things happen in war. Sherman treated Southerners far worse than we did the Japanese during WWII.

As far as treatment of Germans as an enemy, you need to bone up on the treatment of Germans during WWI. Besides,during WWII many suspicious Germans and Italians were rounded up after we went to war with those countries, more or less as Muslims were after 9/11.

Most German-Americans served loyally in our Armed Forces during the Second World War. Their ancestors probably immigrated to get away from the Kaiser (who was not all that bad, and quite benign in comparison to the rulers of militant “Islamic” countries). There were also a few Germans who did in fact sympathize with the Nazis, e.g. the German-American Bund. We distinguished between the two groups, and we must also distinguish between the two groups that call themselves Muslims.

Apples and oranges.

Let's compare apples to apples: While we did accept those of German ancestry, we did not allow sworn Nazi's to serve in our armed forces during WWII. I have no problem with allowing those of Middle Eastern ancestry serve, I have a BIG problem with allowing those of the hateful Muslim faith in our armed forces.

Distinguishing between "good" and "bad" Muslims is like distinguishing between "good" and "bad" Nazis.

Let God sort 'em out.

Absolutely.
I have always had a suspicion that the Islamofascist knew they couldn’t beat us on the field of battle.
But with all the $$$ in the Muslim countries from oil, the best way was to destroy our economy.
When they found the millions upon millions of U.S. currency in Iraq, it should have raised eybrows. but the DUMS kept talking about WMD and no one paid attention.
Ofcourse we have a evil party in power that will gladly destroy America for the Islamofascist.
IF this HC nightmare ever gets implimented we are finished.

The man who visited Hasan that morning gave him his last rites.

That makes him a co-conspirator and a terrorist.

Yes he was

#############

Mark Fidel Kools was renamed Hasan Karim Akbar by his mother after she remarried and converted to Islam,

Akbar's mother, Quran Bilal, did tell reporters that she believed intolerance for his race and his Muslim faith created tensions within his unit as it prepared to invade a Muslim country.

Akbar's father has said that his son was the only African American and only Muslim in his company, the other members of which subjected him to constant harassment.

Akbar himself reportedly said, just moments after his arrest, "You guys are coming into our countries, and you're going to rape our women and kill our children.

I disagree strongly with still need loyal Muslim etcs.

THere are plenty of Jews, Christians or even a few ex-Muslims who can provided these needed services.

IIRC Arabic speaking Jews who offered to work for the FBI were not hired, in favor of actual Muslims.

And how, pray tell, does one separate the “loyal” Muslims from the regular kind?

Hint: There is no way since they may lie about anything and everything if they want to.

I know liberals well. I was raised in an ultra liberal family.

Liberalism is not only a mental illness, in its extreme form is psychopathic mental illness.

Liberals are deeply in illusion and darkness.

Casey and other PC individuals would wonder what they did wrong while some mooslim jihadist shot them in the head or sawed off their head with a dull knife. Fools.

Well, you make some valid points. Hadn’t thought of this.

The backlash and weeding out of the military can come along ...I am waiting for massess of American Muslims to march to Washington denouncing Jhihad! Giving speeches there saying “We will turn the terrorists in..We denounce you...we will work with the Americans!”

I may be slightly more sympathetic then.

I don't give a damn about those hate-filled Muzzies. They either want me to worship their Allah or kill me.

I want them to leave me alone and I'll leave them alone.
