I would like to see somone suggest to those in control that until this is resolved; all active military with Islamic bacgrounds who were not in service prior to 1993 be placed on administrative leave pending the outcome of this investigation.

Somehow, having US Taxpayer money used to train Islamic fundamentalists to become more effective and efficient at killing isn't a real comforting thought.

Doing background checks on people just because they have Islamic backgrounds is discrimination, just because one idiot who happens to be muslim screws up it does not mean other muslims should be subject to rules that don't apply to non muslims. We are not waging a crusade, not all muslims are fundementalists.
Should we subject all hillbillies in the military to background checks after what those few did at Abu Ghraib??....no.
I have a really good friend who is a great Marine and who also happens to be muslim, instead of thanking him and patting him on the back after his second tour in Iraq he gets called 'Rag head' and other awful names by people who fear his color and his religion. The only thing that should be done to muslims in Uniform is for them to be thanked for their patriotic service to their country....they are proud americans too, just some people don't choose to see it.
