As long as they keep killing the murderous muzzies, I don’t care if he’s Bozo The Clown.
Here is why:
First is to understand that Islam as a theocratic regime has a few tactics we Americans consistently overlook. We overlook them due to our own naivete in many cases. FReepers are likely to understand the context of having a muslim/islamist as our top counterterrorsim officer, most Americans will not. So what are these tactics we so willing overlook?
Taqiyya, which literally means concealment of one’s true beliefs. While we westerners translate as meaning the islamist can lie to your face and still be honorable to their god.
Islamic Martyrdom, To understand this we have to understand the mindset of Muslims. Muslims are taught that this life is worthless. (Read here: http://alisina.org/martyrdom-in-islam/) It would not be far-fetched that this Officer has no compunction against martyring his fellow islamics for Allah. In fact, he is assuring them heaven.
And lastly there is the idea of the need for middle east chaos to give rise to the mahdi. How convenient that the United States can be used as THE tool to create the needed chaos.
I am taking for granted much of this you must surely already be aware of, but perhaps laying out how an islamist in key positions who “keep killing the muzzies,” may not be as beneficial as you think.
