What if they go nuts and start killing muslims?
And how about the Hindu soldiers?
I'm sure You've read about the riots and murders in India, and even more so, Kashmir..
And fundamentalist Christians, especially the "cultists", and the "end of days" christians..
While You're at it, let's be sure to check out those soldiers with sympathies for the Aryan (white supremist) movement, just plain rascists, social democrats, (neo-nazis) and then there are... well, you get it..
They're all "Americans" over there..
Many Iraqis are confused by the many "different" americans.
They think the Mexican soldiers are Iraqi, Saudi, Jordanian, Syrian, etc.
Same with the black soldiers.
They don't know what to think of the soldiers with asian heritage.. ( one soldier was immeadiately nicknamed "Jackie Chan" by the Iraqi children. )
The soldiers just reply "American"..
They don't say african american, or mexican american, or asian american.
It's pretty much the same about religion.
It doesn't matter over there. They're all Americans.
Whatever God they pray to, it's to stay alive.
They don't have time for theological differences..
The muslim soldiers over there are Americans, first and foremost.
We have had one incident involving a muslim soldier, which didn't even have anything to do with religion, and we're ready to segregate them all.
Sorry, I can't even get close to that concept.
