Here's one thing that I just don't get.
When I joined the Marine Corps they SPECIFICALLY ask the following question:
Have you ever been a member of an organization that advocates the overthrow of the United States government ??
Now, someone correct me if I'm wrong, but muslims as part of their pillar of faith advocate Jihad.
Jihad = the replacement of all governments with sharia law.
So why shouldn't all muslims by DEFINITION be barred from US military service ???

Going forward there should be the option to all those sympathizers to Saddam to leave now.

Jihad is considered a good deed, but is explicitly not one of the five pillars of the Islamic faith. FWIW.

"So why shouldn't all muslims by DEFINITION be barred from US military service ???" It makes perfect sense to me, but then it doesn't seem that making sense is fashionable these days.

You've hit the nail on the head! On the basis of this, not only should they be banned from military service, they should be banned from obtaining US citizenship - and no, this is not racism as Islam is a philosophy that one voluntarily chooses to follow as one would choose nazism or communism.
Unfortunately, DC is too PC to listen to such commen sense ideas - starting with GW Bush and his "good islam/bad islam" foolishness.

You hit on the key here. Not all muslims, but certainly any who have bought in to the islamofascism are in an extremist organization and should be excluded and, if in the service already, discharged.
